Trojans lose close contest to Riverside Brookfield

On Friday night the Trojans played the Bulldogs from Riverside Brookfield. The game was tight throughout and the Trojans would not go peacefully. After a 3 pt basket by Troy Ellens (3 pts,1 reb, 1 stl, 1 assist), the Trojans fouled Riverside with 9 seconds left. After making 1-2 free throws the Trojans were able to get off a 3 pt shot at the buzzer by Mark Penczak that fell just short off the front of the rim. The Trojans battled valiantly but came up on the losing end 59-62.
Mike Pizzello led the Trojans with an outstanding all around game. He finished with 17 pts, 6 rebounds, 4 assists, and 3 steals. Dan Leach (13 pts, 6 rebounds, 1 steal, 2 assists), Matt Morrison (11 pts, 1 reb, 1 stl, 1 assist), Chris Ridolphi (11 pts,2 reb, 3 stls, 2 assists), Mark Penczak (2 pts, 3 rebs, 5 assists), Nathan Boot (2 pts, 3 rebs),and Matt Robinson (1 reb, 1 assist) all cracked the stat sheet on the night.
The Trojans played very strong team defense on this night vs. a very potent offensive team. The Trojans move to 5-4 on the year and 1-2 in conference play. The next game is at Glenbard West High School on Monday at 4:30 vs. Wheaton Academy.

A big THANK YOU to the Red Zone crowd Friday. There was tremendous school spirit and support. Please keep coming out and supporting the Trojans.
