The Trojans, who were fresh off a 2 game winning streak and with their confidence level at an all time high, headed into the Championship game of the BR Holiday Tournament against a familiar foe, the Sharon Eagles on Sunday afternoon. Having recently scrimmaged the Eagles the Trojans felt confident that they could compete/beat them. Eagles Senior Point Guard, James Fritzon, had other plans. Fritzon scored 13 first quarter points, almost singlehandedly outscoring the Trojans, giving the Eagles a 21-15 lead after 1.
The Trojans stormed back in the 2nd quarter, outscoring the Eagles 21-13, to take a halftime lead 36-34, with Alex Rose and Jaime Carey pitching in 6 a piece to help the cause. Junior Nick Demos was on fire in the 3rd quarter scoring 7 of his 11 points in the frame to keep the Trojans in the game as they trailed by 1 entering the 4th. Unfortunately for the Trojans it was all about James Fritzon, as the Senior scored a game high 33 points, which proved to be a little too much, as the Eagles held the Trojans to only 11 4th quarter points and captured the W.
Senior point guard Jaime Carey was named to the Tournament all-star team and finished with a team high 16 points. Junior Nick Demos finished with 11 points, and Seniors Joe Freiday and Andy Groh pitched in with 9 points each. Eagles Senior James Fritzon was named tournament MVP.
The 2-3 Trojans head to Silver Lake HS on Thursday for a rematch against the Lakers.
