Behind a big night from Dalton Lee, Morgan Academy defeated Autauga Academy to get back to .500 on the season.

The Senators (8-8) led 36-21 at the half, but let the Generals hang around after a poor third quarter.

Lee, who scored 24 points, and Ford Manderson, who scored nine of his 12 points in the final quarter, helped Morgan pull away in the fourth.
