Carrier Mills Coach Keil Peebles had his team in a 2-1-2 zone all night as expected, and the cold outside shooting continued for the Tigers who shot 10/45 (22 %) on the night.
The Tigers played a lot of zone most of the night as well being in a 2-3. They had a tough time stopping Justice Hill down low as he scored 16 on the night. The Wildcats shot 50% from the field and 78% from the line.
Thompsonville only turned the ball over six times on the night in which coach Pete Gordon mentioned they took better care of the basketball. He said even though T’ville did not shoot the ball well, they got some good looks. He said they competed much better than the last time out against Hardin County.

The Tigers (3-9) have a short road trip tomorrow to Dee Ozment Gym to take on the Crab Orchard Trojans in which will be considered a conference game. Carrier Mills (7-10) will be heading down to Pope County to take on the Pirates in what will be considered a non conference game.
