Montini Catholic is 9-1 against Trinity since March of 2021 and they'll have a chance to extend that dominance on Tuesday. The Montini Catholic Broncos will face off against the Trinity Blazers at 7:30 p.m. Expect the scorekeeper to be kept busy: if their previous games are any indication, the two teams will really light up the scoreboard.

Montini Catholic is on a roll after a high-stakes playoff matchup on Thursday. They claimed a resounding 68-20 victory over Elmwood Park. Given the Broncos' advantage in MaxPreps' Illinois basketball rankings (they are ranked 42nd, while the Tigers are ranked 520th), the result wasn't entirely unexpected.

Meanwhile, Trinity had already won two in a row (a stretch where they outscored their opponents by an average of 44 points) and they went ahead and made it three on Thursday. They breezed past the Spartans to the tune of 66-35. The Blazers pushed the score to 55-27 by the end of the third, a deficit the Spartans had little chance of recovering from.

Montini Catholic is on a roll lately: they've won eight of their last ten contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 22-10 record this season. Those victories came thanks in part to their offensive performance across that stretch, as they averaged 58.6 points over those games. Trinity pushed their record up to 23-10 with the win, which was their third straight at home.

Montini Catholic didn't have too much breathing room in their matchup against Trinity in their previous matchup back in December of 2024, but they still walked away with a 47-43 victory. The rematch might be a little tougher for Montini Catholic since the squad won't have the home-court advantage this time around. We'll see if the change in venue makes a difference.
