The Trojans eeked closer to the .500 mark (6-7) and are now only 4 wins away from the elusive 10 win plateua that would allow the Trojans to enter the post season, where they haven't been since 2009, as they traveled to Beverly High to take on the Panthers Sunday afternoon.
The Trojans jumped out to an early lead thanks in part by Jaime Carey's 8 first half points as well as the hustling Nick Demos' 7 first half points, to take a comfortable 15 point lead into the locker room at 37-22. The Panthers said "not so fast" as Beverly's Jon Berchoff poured in 8, of his game high 32 points, to cut the Trojan lead to 7 with 2:04 left in the 3rd. That was the closest the Panthers would get as the Trojans, led by Alex Rose's 10 4th quarter points, finished strong and hung on for a 75-66 Win.
Alex Rose led the way for the Trojans with 21 points , Jaime Carey had 16 points, and Nick Demos hustled in 11 points.
On the good news front, we went from a national rank of 11,591 at the start of the season to 7,034 according to MaxPreps.
The Trojans hope to keep their momentum rolling, as they host the Durfee High Hilltoppers Tuesday at 6:30.
