The men from Timothy earned their second victory last night at the Lisle Thanksgiving tourney. They defeated Team Englewood 61-39. The first quarter was a tight game with the Trojans leading at the end of the first 8 minutes 14-13. The defense tightened and Team Englewood cooled off a bit from the outside to send the Trojans into half-time with a 30-17 lead. The second half would be much of the same as the Trojans never looked back.
The Trojans received a strong game from seniors Justin Peeples and Rob Stein. Justin Peeples ended the game with 21 pts and 5 rebounds. Rob Stein registered his first double double of the season with by scoring 11 pts and grabbing 14 rebounds. Junior Chad Vos and Sophomore Matt Morrison came off the bench with strong contributions. Chad had 9 pts, 5 rebounds and played solid defense. Matt also gave an energy spark with 7 rebounds to go along with 6 pts.
We were a little sloppy at times with poor passing (17 turnovers) and poor free throw shooting (10-22), but still showed the resolve needed to get the job done.
The next game for the Trojans will be at the Lisle Thanksgiving tournament on Friday night at 7:30 vs. Perspectives.
We really appreciated all the support last night. Please keep coming out to support the Trojans.
