For the past four years, Mid-Suburban League girls basketball fans were able to watch two of the most prolific scorers in the conference’s 50-year history.

In the end, Caroline Madden ultimately had one assignment.

No. 3-seeded Hersey (27-8), led by Michigan-bound Katy Eidle’s 27 points, pulled away in the final quarter for a 61-52 triumph over top-seeded Fremd to advance to the Fremd supersectional on Monday night at 7 p.m.

Barrington got off to a fast start, held off a valiant third quarter run by Guilford and finished strong.

South Elgin’s magic carpet ride came to an abrupt end at Tuesday night’s Class 4A Hampshire sectional.

It’s easy to pinpoint exactly where the Class 4A No. 1 girls basketball team in the state put away Tuesday night’s semifinal of the Highland Park sectional.

Caroline Madden doesn’t ask for any other task.

It was a good news, bad news night for Dundee-Crown. Good news: The Chargers scored the first basket of the game. Bad news: Barrington scored the next 11 points to win the Jacobs 4A regional final Thursday.

After earning the West Division berth to the Mid-Suburban League championship game by earning a road victory at archrival Palatine a couple of weeks ago, Fremd coach Dave Yates offered up a potential postseason prospectus of his girls basketball team as it moved toward the Class 4A tournament after winning the MSL title at East Division titlist Hersey last week.

Asha Cobb felt she had nothing to lose. Considering the past few weeks the Conant junior guard dealt with, making a go-ahead 3-pointer, plus making the ensuing free throw with 37.6 seconds left off an inbound pass, meant everything.
