Parkersburg Christian won the last time they faced Ignite Athletics, and Alexander Fluharty did his part to make sure it happened again. Parkersburg Christian claimed a resounding 60-30 victory over the Ignite Athletics Flames thanks to Fluharty, who dropped a double-double with 24 points and 15 rebounds. Fluharty is crushing it when it comes to boards: he's pulled down at least nine every time he's taken the court this season.

Ashton Peeples was another key player, putting up seven points and three steals. The dominant performance also gave him a new career-high in shooting accuracy (60%).

Parkersburg Christian is on a roll lately: they've won five of their last six matchups. That's provided a nice bump to their 11-10 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 56.7 points over those games. Ignite Athletics' loss was their fourth straight at home, which dropped their record down to 3-12.

Looking ahead, Parkersburg Christian will welcome Heritage Christian at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Parkersburg Christian is facing Heritage Christian at the right time seeing as Heritage Christian is stuck on a seven-game losing streak. Ignite Athletics does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
