After suffering injuries during a car accident in the offseason, St. Anthony's guard Chris Jimenez is slowly, but surely on his way back. The 5-9 senior hit three three-pointers and had nine points in the Friars latest win over Smithtown East on Sunday. He did the same thing in St. Anthony's win over Center Moriches at the Chamber of Commerce Tournament on Saturday.
With St. John the Baptist, Peekskill, St. Mary's and Long Island Lutheran next up on the schedule, there's little doubt the Friars and their coach Mike Ryan, who said he's been "Easing Chris back into the lineup" are happy to have him back. Jimenez is the perfect complement to the Friars inside game, which features Shahab Syed.
