Jakiya Valentine won't forget Thursday's contest any time soon: he posted double-digit points for the first time in her career. She went 5 of 8 on her way to 11 points, but sadly Carolina Academy still had to take a 41-36 loss at the hands of Berea. We marked that as the best performance she's had all season, even better than her effort on December 6th (when she had four points and eight rebounds) (Gamescore: 11.1 vs. 7).
Valentine and Carolina Academy will have a little extra prep time after the loss as they won't be playing again for a while. They'll take on Palmetto at 6:30 p.m. on January 10, 2025. Carolina Academy has been struggling on the road and they will enter the game having lost ten straight away games dating back to last season. Will Valentine and the Trojans squad be able to turn things around? Check MaxPreps after the match for a full breakdown of the game, commentary, and other basketball content.
