Basketball Preview: Cummings Cavaliers vs. Jordan-Matthews Jets
Cummings and Jordan-Matthews are an even 5-5 against one another since February of 2016, but not for long. The Cummings Cavaliers will square off against the Jordan-Matthews Jets at 6:00 p.m. on Friday. Neither of those teams managed to put together many points in their previous contests, so the offenses might be a little more motivated than usual.
Cummings can't be to happy about their upcoming road matchup considering what happened when they opened their season on the away from home on Wednesday. They had to suffer through a 50-7 loss at the hands of Northeast Guilford. The Cavaliers were in a tough position after the first half, with the score already sitting at 25-3.
Meanwhile, a victory for Jordan-Matthews just wasn't in the cards last Monday as the squad wasn't able to take the lead at any point. They came up short against Trinity, falling 45-25.
Jordan-Matthews' loss shouldn't obscure the performances of Kelsey Morris, who posted eight points in addition to five rebounds, and Cassidy Graves, who scored six points. The dominant performance also gave Graves a new career-high in threes (two).
Cummings couldn't quite finish off Jordan-Matthews when the teams last played back in January and fell 38-36. Can Cummings avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
