  1. Scott Elger says:

    Tidbit question: Was 19 points in 4th quarter by Peoria Notre Dame freshman Olivia Elger in come from behind victory over Bloomington High a record for most points in a quarter?

    • The Classic says:

      Hi Scott.

      We went back and checked our records. We have historically only kept “most points in a game” and “most points in a tournament” for individuals. Olivia’s 19 points in the 4th quarter may very well be a record for most individual points in a quarter, but we couldn’t tell you for certain.
