Two teams were on the hunt for playoff glory, but only Evanston walked away with it. They took their match on Wednesday with ease, bagging a 95-35 win over the Leyden Eagles. The Wildkits have made a habit of sweeping their opponents off the court, having now won 13 games by 22 points or more this season.

Evanston has been performing incredibly well recently as they've won eight of their last nine contests. That's provided a nice bump to their 26-5 record this season. Leyden has traveled a rocky road recently having lost 11 of their last 13 matchups. That's put a noticeable dent in their 9-22 record this season.

Evanston will challenge Highland Park at 7:00 p.m. on Friday. Both teams are headed into the matchup with plenty of momentum (Highland Park has won seven straight at home, while Evanston won four straight on the road), something that'll have to change. Leyden does not have any more games scheduled as of now.
