Beyak helps Prospect finish with victory at Wheeling

Senior Kyle Beyak made five 3s and shot 6-for-6 from the foul line to help Prospect wrap a fifth-place finish and a 3-1 Wheeling Hardwood Classic tournament record with a 59-55 victory over Libertyville on Saturday.

Beyak finished with a game-high 23 points. Frankie Mack had 10 points for the Knights, and Ernest Kiseliovas had a pair of 3-pointers.

"We shot the ball extremely well tonight," said Prospect coach John Camardella. "We had 12 threes last night (in a victory over Deerfield) and I think we had 11 tonight.

"This is two big wins here at Wheeling after our tough quarterfinal loss to Notre Dame. This win tonight gives our program a lot to work with come the second half of the season."

Libertyville got 16 points from Ben Kimpler, 13 from Paul Steinhaus and 11 from Joe Borcia. The Wildcats shot 21-for-34 from 2-point range but made just one 3.

Buffalo Grove also got a team-high 8 rebounds along with 3 steals and a block from Hans Haller.

Daniel Jenkins led Glenbrook South with 15 points.
