On Tuesday night the Trojans welcomed the Chicago Christian Knights for their last non-conference game before the Knights join the Metro Suburban Conference next year. The game started slowly as both teams used zone defenses and strong closeouts on the perimeter to limit their opponent. The Trojans were able to make enough shots to take a 5 point lead into the halftime. The second half was very similar to the first half with the Trojans slightly outscoring the Knights in the third quarter and then ended up pushing the lead to double digits in the fourth quarter as they used a 22-14 advantage in the fourth quarter to secure a 59-44 victory. With the win, the Trojans improved their record to 15-9(8-3 conference). The TC boys play their last regular season game and celebrate Senior Night on Friday, Feb. 28 at 7pm at home versus Ridgewood.
For the game the Trojans shot 50% and were aided by Connor VanderBrug's 31 points and 15 rebounds. Wes Ditchfield had a solid floor game with 7 points, 10 rebounds, and 5 assists. Justin Rhiner had 11 points to go along with 4 rebounds and Joe Bishop handed out 4 assists and grabbed 3 rebounds. Thanks to those who came out to support the Trojans and we will look forward to seeing you on Friday as we honor our seniors.
