The MIAA's top talents gave us a quality send-off into winter vacation.
Multiple members of the past week's standouts caught fire behind the 3-point arc for new career highs. One senior averaged a 24-point double-double across two games. A freshman logged a monster breakout game in the Bay State Conference. And one of the state's greatest comeback stories from last season reached 1,000 career points last week.
