Senior Michael Cox, who was back in the lineup after a season ending injury last year, was fouled on a baseline drive and made his free throws and Jaguars answered with free throws of their own, 4-10. East Jessamine scored off a steal and used their height advantage for another bucket at the rim, 4-14. The Titans had the final two baskets in the first quarter from a layup by senior Caden Brogli and Dunn made two more free throws, 8-14.
