Timothy Defeats Chicago Christian 31-27

Well, the first PSL game of the season started off in grand fashion. A tight game throughout, the Lady Trojans persevered in the second half to pull out the 4 point victory. The Lady Trojans held the Knights to 11 points in the second half and kept them scoreless for over 6 minutes. Needless to say, the defense was the deciding factor in this game. Shannon McNeil led Timothy with 7 points and Kari LeGrand and Anneke Stremler each had 6. A big lay-up by Kari LeGrand late in the game sealed the win for the Lady Trojans. A fun night it was, especially with the boys winning their game as well. Thanks to all the fans who made the trip out to the game.

"most valuable baller" goes to the whole team on behalf of the defense!

A Message from Mrs. Dirkse (Holland Trip)

Mrs. Dirkse has asked to pass along some important information concerning our trip to Michigan for the Holland Christian game. She has booked a block of 10 rooms at the Holiday Inn Express in Holland for the evening of Jan.10. She would appreciate it if you could contact her at: dirkse8@sbcglobal.net regarding your interest in purchasing one of these rooms. Please let her know as soon as possible.

Thank you Mrs. Dirkse for doing this on behalf of the team.

A Tough Loss this Evening

A frustrating loss for the Lady Trojans this evening. Timothy loses 53-52 to Nazareth. The Lady Trojans played with some great energy and effort, but the execution is what hurt them tonight. Both defensively and offensively, the Lady Trojans missed some key opportunities to get the win. Timothy raced out to early 12 point lead, however foul trouble and the pace of the game slowed down, allowing Nazareth to work there way back into the game. At the half it was a 1 point game in favor of the Lady Trojans and that continued to be the story in second half….a close game. Give credit to Nazareth for hitting some big shots and some big free throws in the 4th quarter. Anneke Stremler led the Lady Trojans with 18 points and 4 rebounds, followed by fellow senior Meghan Leach with 12 points and 3 rebounds. It was a game that the Lady Trojans will learn from and make them tougher in the future.

"most valuable baller" on the evening goes to Anneke Stremler!
