TC Pulls it Out!
The game of basketball can be so simple, but oh so complex at the same time. After coming off a huge win over Glenbard South on Tuesday, the Lady Trojans traveled to Ridgewood to play the Rebels. Timothy knew that a good start would go a long way in setting the tone for the game, but that thought was to no avail.
Timothy struggled to score three points in the first quarter, mainly due to the fact of missed shots and turnovers. Fortunately, Ridgewood only scored two points in the first quarter. The second quarter saw a little better offense with both teams scoring 16 and 14 respectively. The Lady Trojans took a three point lead into the half.
Ridgewood come out on fire and very focused as they built a double digit lead before settling for a nine point lead heading into the fourth quarter. With Timothy still trying to find themselves in the game, the Rebels continued to play well early in the fourth and once again built a double digit lead. About half way through the fourth, the girls stepped up their energy level and intensity and slowly began to chip away at the lead.
The final two minutes of the game was a gut check for the team. Still down by eight points, it was now or never. The team rallied around themselves and fought very hard to overcome the deficit. Down four with just over a minute to go, Kaylie Pries made a lay-up to cut the deficit to two. After a turnover by Ridgewood, Kaylie was fouled and she calmly sank two free throws to tie the game. After another Ridgewood turnover (illegal screen), Kaylie was once again fouled. Just like before, she sank both free throws to give the Lady Trojans a two point lead with 18 seconds left. Somehow, Ridgewood's point guard was able to get through everyone and made a lay-up with 7 seconds left. Kelli LeGrand quickly took the inbounds pass and dribbled ahead. She found Sara Hodges open on the other side of the floor with a cross court pass. Sara grabbed the pass and quickly attacked the basket. Sara was fouled as she attempted to score a lay-up.
With 1.7 seconds left, Ridgewood called a timeout to ice Sara. Sara was ready for this moment and she stepped to the line. The first one went up and right through the net for a swish. The second one was pretty much the same. Ridgewood was unable to get a shot off and the game was over. Timothy had pulled out a squeaker!
Sara Hodges led the way with 13 points (2FT's for the game winners), 7 steals, Kaylie Pries had 12 points (4/4 FT's) 3 assists, 3 steals, Brittany Scheidt had 11pts, 6 reb, Kelli LeGrand 7pts, 6 assists, 4 steals and Stephanie Kuiper contributed 6 reb, 3 blocks and 2 assists.

Welcome to the New Year!!
The Lady Trojans started off the New Year in grand fashion. In hosting conference leader Glenbard South on the evening, the Lady Trojans knew they would have to play one of the better games to pull of the victory.
After a first quarter which saw the lead go back and forth several times, Glenbard South took a 11-9 lead after one. The second quarter saw more of the same with Timothy trying to play catch up. After the sloppiness of play, the game was tied at the half 17-17.
TC was able to regroup at a halftime and was re-energized to start the second half. Both teams scored at pretty fast pace, unlike the first half. Timothy scored 16 points the quarter, nearly matching their first half score. Not to be outdone, Glenbard South scored 15 to keep the game tight heading into the fourth.
With a slim 33-32 edge, the fourth quarter turned out to be best. Timothy did a good job of moving the ball on the offensive side and was able to come up with some timely stops on the defensive side of the ball. This allowed the Lady Trojans to build a "lead" which was not big in this game, but an eight point advantage at one point was huge. Timothy continued to share the ball and closed out the game is grand fashion. After the buzzer had sounded, Timothy had the victory 47-40!
Kelli LeGrand led the way with 16points, 7 assists. Stephanie Kuiper had 8pts, 9reb, Kaylie Pries and Sara Hodges both had 7pts while Alexis Hoogendoorn chipped in 6. Brittany Scheidt made a huge three in the fourth to kill any momentum that Glenbard South tried to get.
To say it was good team win would be understatement. The team collectively gave their best and were rewarded because of it. Great job ladies!
