Trojans Down Blue Eagles.

The Trojans visited the beautiful, and new, Plymouth North HS to face the Blue Eagles on Tuesday night, and came out with a 68-58 win to sport an unfamiliar record.... a winning one!  The now 4 and 3 Trojans (that's 4 wins and 3 losses) haven't been on the plus side of a winning record in a long time!
The Blue Eagles jumped out to a first quarter lead outscoring the Trojans 21-18 to take the early lead, but that lead proved to be short lived as the Trojans accumulated most of their points from the bench, as Senior Alex Rose and Junior Nick Demos led all Trojans with 8 first half points each, and the Trojans took a 10 point lead into the locker room 39-29. The Trojans kept the pressure on the Blue Eagles, increasing the lead to 16 points after 3, to take a comfortable lead after 3, 58-42. The Never say die Blue Eagles said "not so fast" as they whittled the lead down to 8 in the 4th, but it was too little too late, and the Trojans hung on for the 68-58 win!
Once again Senior Jaime Carey led all scoring with 17 points and 8 rebounds (including a perfect 6 for 6 from the line). The biggest punch from the Trojans came off the bench as Senior Alex Rose (13 points and 6 rebounds) and Nick Demos (12 points) continued their stellar play! Senior Captain Joe Freiday finished with 10 points and 6 rebounds, and Isiah Bell pitched in with 9 points!
The Trojans travel to Dartmouth HS on Friday night to face off against the 3-2 Indians for their first Old Colony League action.
