Meanwhile, Forest Hill was not able to break out of their rough patch on Tuesday as the team picked up their fifth straight defeat dating back to last season. They took a blow against Ridgeland, falling 64-24. The Patriots were in a tough position after the first half, with the score already sitting at 49-18.
Columbus beat Forest Hill 49-42 in their previous matchup back in January of 2018.
