Trojans Capture OT Victory

After trailing by 11 early in the first quarter the Trojans used some hot shooting to propel them to an 8-pt halftime lead over the visiting Glenbard South Raiders. That lead didn’t last long though as Glenbard South picked up the defensive pressure in the third quarter and took a 2-pt lead going into the final quarter. This game wasn’t to be decided in regulation as the teams went back and forth and regulation ended with the teams tied 54-54. The overtime period was also back and forth as both teams fought for the conference victory. In the end the Trojans rebounded a Raiders miss and ran out the clock for an exciting 63-62 victory.

In the victory the Trojans used a balance scoring attack led by Connor VanderBrug with 18 pts, Khali Valrie with 15 pts, and Joe Bishop chipped in 9 pts. Robert McGivney was high rebounder for the game as he tallied a double-double for the Trojans with 13 rebounds and 11 points.

The Trojans improved their record to 2-2(1-0 Conference). Thanks Red Zone for your support! The Trojans next game is Wednesday, December 11 at 7:30pm at Aurora Christian.
