Weekend split for the Trojans:

Weekend split for the Trojans:
On Friday night the Trojans took a short trip down York road to play crosstown rival Immaculate Conception.  The Trojans couldn’t recover from their slow start and poor shooting in which they were down 6 after 1 quarter and 11 and half and dropped the contest to the Knights 61-46.  The Trojans only shot 36% from the floor they were led by seniors Joey Davidson’s 17 points and Johnny Strube’s 9 points.
On Saturday the Trojans hosted old PSL rival Illiana Christian to Elmhurst.  In front of a packed house the Trojans got back in the win column with a 54-50 victory.  The Trojans got back to their unselfish style of basketball and had 15 assists for 18 made baskets; with 8 of those made baskets being 3 pointers.  It took a team effort from the Trojans with some very key performances by seniors Johnny Strube (16p/7r/2a/4b), and Joey Davidson (15p/2r/1a) and Junior Jimmy Allen (12p/6r/5a/2s)
The Trojans boys will be some road warriors this week getting back into conference play on Tuesday night in Elgin as they visit the Green Wave of St. Edwards and Saturday they travel to the border of Iowa and Fulton HS which is the location of the Eric Ottens Shootout which the Trojans were invited to play in.  They will face Commanche HS from Iowa at 5:00pm. The game will be streamed at ustream.tv/channel/fhs-online
