Samuel Jones, Hardin-Jefferson's most accurate shooter this season, solidified his role on Friday. Jones went 6 for 8 en route to 12 points and six steals, good enough to set a new career-high in steals in the process. He is becoming a predictor of Hardin-Jefferson's success: when he posts at least three steals the team is 5-1 (and 7-15 when he doesn't).

Looking ahead, Jones and Hardin-Jefferson will challenge Tarkington at 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday. The Hawks had to take a loss when they last met the Longhorns, but Jones had little to do with the loss: he dropped a double-double with 13 points and 12 rebounds. Can he match (or beat) that performance? Check back here after the action for a full breakdown and analysis of the contest.
