McNairy Central won the last time they faced Jackson North Side and things went their way on Friday too. The McNairy Central Bobcats breezed past the Jackson North Side Indians to the tune of 67-24. Given the Bobcats' advantage in MaxPreps' Tennessee basketball rankings (they are ranked 77th, while the Indians are ranked 350th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.

Despite the loss, Jackson North Side saw an underclassman step up: freshman Kenya Johnson went 5-for-11 en route to 14 points. The dominant performance also gave Johnson a new career-high in shooting accuracy (45%).

McNairy Central is on a roll lately: they've won five of their last six matchups. That's provided a nice bump to their 19-8 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 53.8 points over those games. Jackson North Side is on a 15-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 3-26.

As of now, neither McNairy Central nor Jackson North Side have any future games scheduled.
