If Choctawhatchee wanted to avenge their loss from the last time they played Pensacola, they should've done a better job of containing Jabari Epps. The Tigers secured a 58-52 W over the Indians on Tuesday thanks in part to Epps, who made all 7 shots he took racking up 21 points. He continues to improve, besting his previous point total in each of the last five games he's played.

The team also got some help courtesy of Catino Mobley, who posted three points. He is also on a roll when it comes to field goal percentage, as he's posted one of at least 50% in the last three games he's played.

Pensacola moved to 11-5 with that win, which also ended their three-game losing streak. As for Choctawhatchee, their loss dropped their record down to 6-6.

Looking ahead, Pensacola and Navarre will face off at 4:00 p.m. on Wednesday without much rest, having both just played. The Tigers will be up against the Raiders' rather soft defense (which has allowed 56 points per contest), so fans could be in store for a big offensive performance. Choctawhatchee has already played their next game (against St. Martin), but no score has been uploaded at the time of writing.
