Dallas County 79, Jemison 57 (Boys)

Dallas County (13-4) assured itself a tie for the class 5A, area 6 regular season title Friday night with a 79-57 win over Jemison.

The win leaves the Hornets and Calera — who won Friday night against Marbury — in a tie at the top of the area standings. Both teams defeated each other once, meaning the tiebreaker is likely to be a coin flip to determine which team hosts the area tournament.

“I told our guys you got a share of first place for the regular season, but you really want to play better,” said Dallas County coach Willie Moore.

The Hornets, ranked No. 8 in class 5A, were led by Andre Hall’s 19 points. Octavious Palmer was also in double figures with 12 points.
