Jaylen Moore's Big Game Leads High Point Christian Academy over Varsity Opponent

Covenant Day has been performing well recently as they've won three of their last four games, which provided a nice bump to their 4-2 record this season. Helton and Covenant Day will square off against North Cross at 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
