Bourgeois didn't have too much breathing room in their game against Terrebonne when the teams last played back in January of 2024, but they still walked away with a 73-67 victory. One of the biggest obstacles trying to stand in the way of that victory was Terrebonne's Kylan Billiot, who dropped a triple-double with 19 points, 15 rebounds, and ten blocks. Now that he won't be playing on Friday, will it be easier for Bourgeois to walk away with another win? Check MaxPreps.com after the match to find out.
