Central Bounces Back in 6A Central

One thing was for sure Tuesday night: the Tigers needed a win. Central defeated Cabot, 48-43, at Panther Arena to end what's been a tough start in conference play. "When you're 0-3, you either quit or you work a little extra harder," said head coach Brian Ross. "Our guys dug down deep. They're a competitive group of guys. I'm really proud of them." The Tigers held a 34-30 lead heading into the fourth quarter and went on a 7-0 run to take control of the game. Senior forward Rajhon McIntosh led Central with 13 points. The Tigers will face No. 1 Conway at home on Friday night.
