QUICK HITTERS

• With 11 regular season games still remaining, Neylon's 50 threes are 10 more than any Cardinal made in 29 games last year. He is just 13 makes from distance shy of his career-best mark of 63 in 2022-23. 
• Catholic's efficient shooting season continues after a minor blip on Saturday. Shooting 50 percent from the field in tonight's win, the Cardinals have made at least half of their shots in eight of 14 games this season and shoot 47.6 percent from the floor this year. 
• The 12 makes from three as a team are the most in a game this season, passing a pair of games with 10 makes for the Cardinals. All three games in which the Cardinals made 10 or more threes have come in Landmark play.
