The Trojans were out gunned on Monday night 84-70, falling to 4-5 on the season, by the Whitman Hanson Panthers who were led by their Senior Captain Brian Feeney, who scored 21 points, including a perfect 11 for 11 from the line!
The Trojans stumbled a little out of the gate being outscored by the Panthers 19-12 in the first quarter and 23-15 in the second to trail by 15 at the half as the Panthers 3 point shot was spot on as they nailed eight 3 pointers in the half (Senior Guard Shane Devlin had 4 of them) and they also made 8 of 10 from the free throw line. The Trojans came firing back in the 3rd cutting the lead to 9, thanks to key 3 pointers from Sophomore Mike Manning and Senior Captain Rashad Bell. The 4th quarter was not so friendly to the Trojans as the Panthers scored 29 points without making a 2 point field goal, as they made four 3 pointers and 17 free throws!!!
Senior Captain Joe Freiday led the way for the Trojans with 15 points (including the dunk above) and 10 rebounds, Senior Captain Rashad Bell had 12 points, Seniors Alex Rose and Jaime Carey pitched in with 8 points each!
While
this was a tough loss, it certainly wasn't due to a lack of effort as
the Trojans fought hard throughout the game. Coach Fisher on the loss:
"Our kids hung in there tonight and made a game of it until the end. I
am proud of the way the kids battled back"
It's an uphill battle all week as the Trojans travel to Quincy for a rematch with the Presidents, then off to Barnstable on Friday.
