With one of the most prolific scoring offenses over the past decade, very few statistical occurrences have not piled up for Calumet High School’s boys basketball team under head coach Jacob Mayfield.

Senior Kingston Arnold changed that by adding a rare triple-double as the Chieftains, the defending Class B state champion, moved to 3-0 on the year with a 97-46 road win over Lomega.

“Kingston was all over the place and he really carved them up. That’s just the second triple-double I’ve seen since I got here in 2015,” said Mayfield.
