Timothy Finds A Way

The Lady Trojans traveled to South Holland last night to battle long time rival Illiana Christian. This game has plenty of drama from start to finish. Timothy came out red hot and created a lead of 12-4. Illiana would bounce back and actually take a 1 point lead. As the Lady Trojans went cold from the outside, they were able to muster up enough points to take a 1 point lead at the half, 17-16.

The third quarter saw Illiana jump to a 29-24 lead, but thankfully the Lady Trojans responded and close the gap to one. After a basket and a free throw, the score was tied at 31 all. Timothy would take control of the game and sprint ahead to a 37-31 lead. However, as it was stated above, the game had plenty of drama. Illiana would make a run and wound up tieing the game at 37. Some clutch free throws down the stretch preserved the win for the Lady Trojans as the final ended up being 41-37.

Cassidy Block led all scores with 17 points, and pulled down 8 rebounds. Tessa Bosman and Stephanie Kuiper continued to help the Trojans in the middle scoring 7 and 6 individually. Shelly Ditchfield and Kelli LeGrand had 4 and 3 steals with Jasmine Stein taking away 2 steals as well.

Timothy is home tomorrow as they play another conference opponent in Ridgewood. The game time is set for 2:00pm. Please come out and support the Lady Trojans as they continue conference play.
