Plainfield and Brownsburg are an even 5-5 against one another since November of 2021, but not for long. The Quakers will look to take advantage of their home court for the first time this season as they take on the Bulldogs at 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday. Expect the scorekeeper to be kept busy: if their previous games are any indication, these teams will really light up the scoreboard.

Plainfield is coming home in high spirits after they had to open their season on the road against McCutcheon. The Quakers came out on top in a nail-biter against the Mavericks on Wednesday, sneaking past 58-56.

Meanwhile, Brownsburg made easy work of Warren Central on Tuesday and carried off a 72-52 victory. The Bulldogs haven't had any issues with the Warriors recently, as the game was their third consecutive win against them.

Brownsburg's win came from a few key players Plainfield will need to keep an eye on. One of the most notable was Elle Mcculloch, who went 8-for-14 to rack up 22 points in addition to seven boards and five assists. That's the most rebounds she has posted since back in November of 2024. The team also got some help courtesy of Laniah Walkine, who shot 4-for-7 from long range and almost dropped a double-double with 16 points and nine boards.

Brownsburg was working as a unit and finished the game with 20 assists. They easily outclassed their opponents in that department as Warren Central only posted two.

Plainfield beat Brownsburg 57-47 in their previous matchup back in January. One of the biggest obstacles trying to stand in the way of that victory was the Bulldogs' Avery Gordon, who dropped a double-double with 20 points and 14 rebounds. Now that she won't be playing on Tuesday, will it be easier for the Quakers to walk away with another win? There's only one way to find out.
