Timberlake Christian had to start their season on the road on Friday, and it wasn't the start they were hoping for. They had to suffer through a 69-15 loss at the hands of the C.H. Friend Red Jackets. The Tornadoes were given a dose of their own medicine in this game as the Red Jackets apparently hadn't forgotten their loss the last time these teams played back in December of 2024.
Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead C.H. Friend to victory, but perhaps none more so than Jacari Coles, who dropped a double-double with 18 points and ten rebounds. Coles is crushing it when it comes to boards: he's pulled down at least eight every time he's taken the court this season. The team also got some help courtesy of Ziyad Holt, who went 7-for-16 to rack up 17 points and eight assists.
C.H. Friend's victory ended a three-game drought at home dating back to last season and bumped them up to 2-1.
Looking ahead, Timberlake Christian will be defending their home court for the first time this season when they go up against Faith Christian Academy at 7:00 p.m. on Tuesday. As for C.H. Friend, they will head out to face off against Hargrave Military Academy at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday.
