On Friday night at halftime, the Trojans recognized the 6th, 7th, and 8th grade boys teams from Timothy Christian. The coaches and teams were recognized and thanked for all of their hard work and success this season. They have had very successful seasons and we are excited to see how they improve and contribute in the future for the high school at Timothy Christian.
The Trojans then came out of the locker room and completed the night with a victory over Elwood Park 55-51.
The game was one where each team would seem to control a portion of the game. The Tigers had control near the end of the first leading 11-9. They continued to increase their lead into the 2nd quarter. Down 20-13, the Trojans took control of the later part of the 2nd quarter to make a 16-3 run and head into the half with a 29-23 lead. The Trojans were able to have a slight edge in the 3rd and at the end of the quarter they held a 46-34 advantage. During the 4th quarter, Elmwood Park seized momentum and out scored the Trojans 17-9. The Trojans offense sputtered but they were able to make their free throws (all 9 pts scored) to get the Metro-Suburban Conference victory.
The Trojans were led by Chris Ridolphi (17 pts,8 rebs,4 assists),Tyler VanderBrug (9 pts,6 rebs,2 assists,1 stl), Danny Leach (13 pts,3 rebs,2 assists), Matt Morrison (5 rebs,2 pts,2 assists,1 stl,1 blk), Connor VanderBrug (6 rebs, 6 pts), Matt Robinson (6 pts, 3 rebs), Luke Davidson (3 rebs, 2 pts), and Aaron Snoeyink (1 reb,1 assist). The Trojans move to 9-8 and 2-3 on the season.
The Trojans are next in action on Friday night at Fenton at 7:00 pm and then home on Saturday vs. Holland Christian with a 7:30 pm start time. Please keep coming out and supporting the Trojans. We really appreciate it.
