John Hilaire continued his habit of posting crazy stat lines, almost dropping a double-double on 26 points and nine rebounds. He is also on a roll when it comes to steals, as he's now grabbed two or more in the last four games he's played. Kingston Carvalho was another key player, putting up 14 points.
Meanwhile, winning is always nice, but doing so behind a season-high score is even better (just ask Barrington). They took their game on Wednesday with ease, bagging a 93-46 win over Johnston. The Eagles have made a habit of sweeping their opponents off the court, having now won six matchups by 20 points or more this season.
Tolman better keep an eye on Caleb Satisfield. He was instrumental in Barrington's win, earning 26 points. Those 26 points gave Satisfield a new career-high. The team also got some help courtesy of Ryan Rigamonti, who posted 19 points.
Barrington has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won six of their last seven contests, which provided a nice bump to their 8-2 record this season. As for Tolman, the victory got them back to even at 5-5.
Some high-performance offense is likely on the agenda as the two teams are some of the highest scoring teams in the league. Tolman hasn't had any problem running up the score this season, having averaged 56.1 points per game. However, it's not like Barrington struggles in that department as they've been averaging 65.2 points. With both teams so easily able to put up points, the only question left is who can run the score up higher.
Tolman came up short against Barrington in their previous matchup back in March of 2020, falling 65-55. Will Tolman have more luck at home instead of on the road? Check MaxPreps after the action for a full breakdown of the game and more basketball content.
