Trenton is headed into the matchup after thoroughly thrashing Bell: they outscored them in every quarter.

The game was all but wrapped up at the end of the third, by which point the Tigers had established a 40 point advantage.
Multiple players turned in solid performances to lead Trenton to victory, but perhaps none more so than Nathan Ridgell, who went 5 of 6 on his way to 11 points and five boards. The team also got some help courtesy of BB Ford, who posted ten points and six rebounds.
Trenton smashed the offensive glass and finished the game with 15 offensive boards. That strong performance was nothing new for the team: they've now pulled down at least 11 offensive rebounds in four consecutive contests.
Meanwhile, Union County came tearing into Friday's matchup with five straight wins (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 22.4 points) and they left with even more momentum. They claimed a resounding 76-41 win over the Trojans. Given the Fightin' Tigers' advantage in MaxPreps' Florida basketball rankings (they are ranked 307th, while the Trojans are ranked 711th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.
