Timothy Advances

Timothy traveled into the city and took part in the Prosser Regional Semi-Final Game against St. Francis.  These two teams met a week earlier at St. Francis which resulted in a St. Francis win.  Timothy knew what they were getting into and they also knew that they would have to play better to beat a good St. Francis team.

The first quarter was a good start for the Lady Trojans as they took an early 12-6 lead after one quarter of play.  The second quarter saw the lead grow to an 18-8 advantage, but St. Francis closed the half on a 6-0 run to make it 18-14 in Timothy's favor at the half.

The third quarter saw the offenses of both teams play a lot better.  TC scored a total of 12 points and St. Francis scored 14 to make the game even closer heading into the fourth quarter.  With that two point lead, it didn't last long as St. Francis ending up taking a 32-31 lead.  The fourth quarter was a back and forth affair as neither team held much more of a two point lead.  TC would take a four point lead only to see St. Francis come right back and tie it.

The game boiled down to Timothy making some clutch free throws and withstanding a few missed shots to win the game 45-44.

Sara Hodges led the way with 16 points and Stephanie Kuiper had 10.  Brittany Schedit had 6 points while Alexis Hoogendoorn chipped in 5.  Kelli LeGrand had 4pts while Kaylie Pries and Kaitlin Gehrke each had 2pts.

Timothy will now play on Thursday night vs. MSC rival Glenbard South for the Regional Championship.  The game time is set for 7:30pm.  Hope to see you out there cheering the team on!

Go TC!!
