Big matchup tonight! I anticipate a big crowd and good atmosphere. Both teams fighting for a chance at the FAC behind Miami Trace, and will be firmly in 2nd place with a victory. I have not seen Jackson play, but this should be a good one. Thoughts?

Jackson typically seems to control the pace of play quite well, which could give Chillicothe some problems. They also don't seem to look to score from the outside very much -- which sort of goes hand in hand with controlling the pace of play.

I think Chillicothe could give Jackson problems if they play fast and make Jackson uncomfortable. Not to mention, Chillicothe isn't an easy place to play whatsoever.

Chillicothe has played a brutal schedule to date and has been very competitive. However, they are facing a different type of challenge that they have not seen yet this year. Jackson will be very physical so curious to see how the CAVS handle this different type of challenge. The CAVS must match Jackson's physicality and minimize the mistakes at crucial points of the game.

25-25 Halftime

Both ends of court, very few calls around the rim, have to finish strong.
I’m impressed with Chillicothe toughness 1st half.
And Jackson has turned it over quite a few times off of Chillicothe being very aggressive with getting hands on the ball.
Great first half with energy from both teams… and student section bringing the energy as well!

Good look at the bucket but no points.
