Khaven Cochran continued his habit of posting crazy stat lines for Central, going 8 for 13 en route to 23 points and five boards. The matchup was Cochran's sixth in a row with at least ten points. Connor Williams was another key player, putting up seven points in addition to six rebounds and five blocks.
Harris County's loss dropped their record down to 1-15. As for Central, they are on a roll lately: they've won six of their last seven games, which provided a nice bump to their 14-3 record this season.
Both squads will have to hit the road in their upcoming games. A feisty cat fight is on tap when the Harris County Tigers challenge the Jonesboro Cardinals at 7:30 p.m. on Friday. Jonesboro knows how to get points on the board -- the team has finished with 55 points or more in their past 13 contests -- so hopefully Harris County likes a good challenge. Central has already played their next match (against Mundy's Mill), but no score has been uploaded at the time of writing.
