Arthaniel Davis Jr. won't forget Thursday's matchup any time soon: he posted double-digit points for the first time in his career. He shot 50% from the field to rack up 11 points, helping propel Meridian past Joppa-Maple Grove by a score of 78-50. We marked that as the best performance he's had all season, even better than his effort last Monday (when he earned five points) (Gamescore: 11.9 vs. 5.8).
Coming up, Davis Jr. and Meridian will take on Marion at 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday. The Bobcats will be headed into this one with a sizable disadvantage in the rankings (they're ranked 464 places lower in Illinois), but they're not letting that get them down. Will they be able to pull off an upset behind Davis Jr.? Check MaxPreps after the match for a full breakdown of the game, commentary, and other basketball content.
