What to watch

The teams met earlier this season on Dec. 10 in Algonquin, when Prairie Ridge topped Jacobs 54-45 (box score: https://scorebooklive.com/illinois/basketball/games/6145815-prairie-ridge-vs-jacobs). Prairie Ridge will look to build on that result while Jacobs aims for a road bounce-back in Crystal Lake.
