The Trojans only had 2 players in double figures with Junior Isiah Bell throwing in 11 points, and senior Alex Rose contributing with 10 points. The Indians were led by Nick Simoneti's 26 points.
The Trojans fall to 7-8 on the season and travel to Falmouth on Sunday afternoon to face the Clippers as they need 3 more wins to capture a spot in the MIAA State Tournament.
#ProjectPurple
Both teams wore Project Purple T shirts in support of former NBA star Chris Herren's initiative that assists families to fight drug addiction.
Go Project Purple was launched to break the stigma of addiction, bring awareness to the dangers of substance abuse and shed light on effective treatment practices.
The Go Project Purple concept was developed when Chris spoke at a local high school in 2011 and the front row of students were wearing Purple shirts. After Chris shared his story, one of the purple shirts raised her hand and stood up to speak. As snickering and laughter could be heard throughout the auditorium, the student said “Thank you Mr. Herren for validating what we do. We are the sober students of this high school and each year we take a pledge to not use drugs or alcohol.” Chris was captured by the courage it took to not only stand up and share the symbolism of the purple shirts, but was inspired to make a difference amongst adolescents across the United States.
