I thought the Callaway guards would prove to be too strong for the Rams, as they are among thebest in the country, but I should have learned by now to never underestimate the coaching genius of Provine’s Luther Riley. Provine the 2 time defending State Champions in Class 5A, tend to find a way to win, and the semi-final game was another example. The Rams with the talented tandem of Jalen Courtney and Emery Kelly working the post, advanced to the championship game to face Meridian who defeated Wingfield.
The championship game was moved to Jackson State University to accommodate the huge crowd.
In the title game, Meridian avenged an earlier 3 point loss to Provine at Provine, to become the first none JPS team in 13 years to win the tourney. Meridan led by 6’7’ sophomore at the point, placed 3 player on the all tournament team including the tournament MVP, see below. Provine had their chances, but could not catch the Wildcats, who by the way, are building a great program led by former JPS star Randy Bolen. Meridan has the talent to make it the championship game come state tournament time.
The Wildcats and Rams have not split their 2 games this season and I would not be surprised is this is a preview of the Finals matchup in 5A Another great JPS Christmas Tournament.
The next big event is the MLK holiday tournament where the state’s #1 ranked team, Biloxi is scheduled to participate.

Boys Championship Game-

For the first time in 13 years, a team other than a local Jackson Public School team won the JPS/Pepsi Holiday Tournament. Meridian, the state’s #2 ranked team beat the Provine Rams to lay claim to the title.
In the semi final game, Provine defeated the Callaway Chargers in a very electric atmosphere at Forest Hill gym. It was unbelievably hot inside, standing room only, and some reports have over 700 people being turned away at the door.
