Corinth Holders' defeat came despite a true team effort with many players turning in solid performances. Perhaps the best among them was Caleb Sandling, who almost dropped a double-double with 12 points and nine rebounds. Sandling is also on a roll when it comes to three-point shooting accuracy, as he's posted one of at least 40% in the last three games he's played. Tyree Johnson also deserves some recognition as he posted his first block of the season.

Looking ahead, Bunn and Wake Forest will face off at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday without much rest, having both just played. The Wildcats' defense better be ready for this one: the Cougars have averaged an impressive 58.6 points per game this season. As for Corinth Holders, they will have a chance to turn things around after yesterday's loss to Vance Charter at 4:00 p.m. on Tuesday after yesterday's loss. The Pirates will be up against the Knights' rather soft defense (which has allowed 55.75 points per matchup), so fans could be in store for a big offensive performance.
