Southside 61, Fairview 59 OT (Boys)
Fairview's boys took part in the Bojangles Shootout at Wallace State, taking on Southside. After holding a 31-21 lead with 4:23 remaining in the first half, thanks to seven made threes, the Aggies cooled off from there, but still held a 34-30 lead at the half. They had a nine-point lead with four minutes remaining in the game, but bad free-throw shooting kept Southside in the game and the Panthers came back to tie the game at 57 on a made three with 40 seconds left. The game eventually went to overtime, and a late Aggie turnover proved costly as Southside hit a layup to win the game, 61-59. The Aggies fall to 10-11 on the season and will take on Holly Pond on Thursday instead of Tuesday due to inclement weather.
Colbert County 52, Cold Springs 28 (Girls)
Cold Springs' girls also took part in the Bojangles Shootout, playing Colbert County.

After staying close to the Lady Indians through one quarter, the Lady Eagles only scored three points in the second period and trailed 23-12 at the half. They did cut it to 34-25 on a Toni West trey in the final quarter, but Cold Springs couldn't get any closer as Colbert County finished on a 18-6 run to take the game, 52-28.
