Providing a massive spark for Plainfield from the game’s opening possession, Lowery was arguably the difference in the game with his two-way complementary play on the wing. The senior swingman knocked down a smooth corner 3 to start the game and get the crowd going, showing consistent comfort as a standstill shooter with zero fear of the moment. He gave great energy on both ends of the floor with his length and fluidity. His back-to-back steals early in the fourth, one leading to a breakout layup and the other to an assist for Gordon’s highlight-reel slam, pushed Plainfield ahead by 12 and seemingly shut the door on Montgomery for good. Lowery, who scored a dozen points on the day, is being recruited currently as a quarterback but could be a valued small-college prospect on the hardwood should he choose to go that route.
