There's no place like home for Southern, who bounced back after a loss on the road last Thursday. They walked away with a 62-51 victory over the Central Falcons on Friday. Given the Bulldogs' advantage in MaxPreps' Maryland basketball rankings (they are ranked 108th, while the Falcons are ranked 243rd), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
Central lost despite a true team effort on offense. The best among them was Quincy Taylor ll, who posted 14 points. Another player making a difference was Ezra Jackson, who scored 13 points.
Southern is on a roll lately: they've won three of their last four contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 14-7 record this season. The wins came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 59.0 points over those games. Central is on a seven-game losing streak that has dropped them down to 3-17.
Southern will have some time to savor their win since their next game is a little ways off: they'll take on Wilde Lake on March 4th. Central does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
