The Tigers lead increased to 37, 63-26, at the three-quarter mark.
Interestingly, 8 of Barker’s 9 field goals over the first three quarters came from three-point range.
Dillenbeck finished with a game high 24 to lead the Tigers as Hydock had 14, Devin Rounds 13, Russ Stephens 7, Noah Poler 6, Casey Winiecki 3 and Evan Horn, Nathan Neace, Trenton Muck and Hyden Woodward 2 each.
