Friday night the Trojans traveled to Guerin Prep for their third conference game of the season. After a slow start Timothy found themselves down by 4 points at halftime but battled back in the second half to take a close fought victory 39-33. One highlight of the game was Joe Bishop's overall performance. Joe took it upon himself to lift the team in all aspects of the game by finishing with 18 points, 9 rebounds and a couple steals. Another highlight was the gutsy and hard-nosed effort put forth by the guys coming off the bench (Mitch Evenhouse, Josh Caver, Jared Rhiner) who added the intensity and defensive effort needed. Overall, it was a hard fought and well deserved conference win.
Saturday night Timothy traveled again for another conference game vs. Elmwood Park which proved to be another hard fought close game. The Trojans struggled shooting from the outside and from the charity stripe in the first half which allowed Elmwood Park to stay within shooting distance. After a motivating halftime speech Timothy came out firing in the second half and closed the game out with yet another conference win! The final score was 45-32. Mitch Evenhouse came off the bench with another great performance and led all scorers with 10 points and added8 rebounds and 2 steals. Joey Davidson put together an all-around great game shooting 6-6 from the line with 4 assists, 3 rebounds and a couple of steals.
Timothy Trojans next game is against conference rival Chicago Christian on Saturday Dec. 20 at 5:30 PM.
