Former Hopkinsville basketball standout JaQualis Matlock has a new college home, and the former Tiger scored 11 points to help Moberly Area College win their opener Wednesday 100-50 over College of Faith from West Memphis, Arkansas.

Moberly is ranked No. 8 in the National Junior College Athletic Association preseason poll and has five straight seasons with at least 23 wins. Last year, the Missouri school lost to eventual national champion Hutchinson CC in the NJCAA Tournament.

Matlock was a part of four region champion teams at Hopkinsville and played one season at Motlow State in 2015-16 before sitting out last year.

Matlock joins former Hopkinsville Tiger Tra Edwards at Moberly. Edwards signed with Murray State out of high school but did not play his freshman season. He averaged 10 points and three rebounds with Southwestern Illinois College in 2015-16.
