Sharon (and Senior Pt Guard James Fritzon) Down Trojans 68-64

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.

Trojans advance to Championship game!

The Trojans improve to 2-2 defeating Silver Lake and advance to the championship game of the BR Holiday Tournament in a very exciting back-and-forth game that ended with the Trojans winning 84 to 71. 

Senior Kayleen Walsh started things off with a nice rendition of the National Anthem. 

The Trojans trailed 11 to 10 after one and trailed 27 to 30 at the half, but rebounded nicely in the second half, pouring it on in the 4th quarter scoring 32 points in the final frame. With the game tied at 71 with 1:56 left Isiah Bell took over!
Once again Jaime Carey led the Trojans with 23 points, Rashad Bell had 17 points, Isiah Bell had 14 points (8 huge points in the 4th), Joe Freiday had 13 points and 16 rebounds, and Alex Rose had 10 points.
For the Lakers Tanner Bouchard (who fouled out with 1:00 to go) scored a game high 27 points including making 9 straight free throws in the 4th quarter!
The Trojans will square off against Sharon HS in the Championship game Sunday at 4:45!

Trojans Stun Brockton!

The 0-2 Trojans galloped into Brockton High on Thursday Night and upset The Brockton Boxers by a score of 74-71 in the most exciting game of the early season!

Coach Larry Fisher subbed early and often as the Trojan fresh legs out hustled and out manned the Brockton Boxers. The Trojans jumped out to an early 5-0 lead and led 16-12 after the first quarter, and would have led 32-23 at the half but a Boxer threw up a half court 3 pointer that bounced 4 times on the rim and fell in for the home town bounce and the momentum "seemed" to turn the Boxers way heading into the locker room at half time cutting the Trojan lead to 6. 

The lead was back and forth as Jaime Carey broke out of his shell and took over the game as if he was playing in the school yard!

The Boxers bounced back and the score was tied at 46 after three.  

"Down the stretch they come!"

The Trojans hung in and battled, as Alex Rose (12 points and 10 rebounds) played with his heart on his sleeve and fouled out with 1:00 to go.

The Trojans thwarted the Boxer comeback leading by 3 with under 1 minute to go and held on for an exciting 74-71 victory!! 

Jaime Carey had 23 points, Joe Freiday had 13 points, 16 rebounds and 6 blocks, and Rashad Bell had 12 points and 10 rebounds!!

Awesome effort by The Trojans! 

Video highlights to follow!!!! (Saturday)??

The Trojans Improve to 1-2 as they head into the Holiday break.

The Trojans drop to 0-2 on the season as the Whitman Hanson Panthers made 10 3 pointers on route to a 65-52 road win and advance to 1-0 on the season.
Senior guard Shane Devlin had 3 of those 3 pointers on his way to 15 total points, and Senior guard Brian Feeney led all scorers with 23 points.
The Trojans were led by Junior Isiah Bell who had 15 points and Jaime Carey 10 points.
It doesn't get any easier for the Trojans as they hit the road and face off against the 0-1 Brockton Boxers on Thursday night at Brockton High School.
I promise to put together some video "highlights" when there is something "highlight" worthy to post... Like a W!!!
