January 18, 2012
The Trinity Trojans will enter their televised game on Friday night having been losers of five straight games. Last friday, the Trojans lost to a hard-working Holy Name team as a loose ball was picked up and scored with less than one second remaining to give the visiting Namers a 55-53 victory. Trinity led going into halftime by a score of 28-26 before a stunning performance by the Trojan Cheerleaders (Halftime found here). The battle between Holy Name saw no one lead by more than six points through the duration of the game with Holy Name leading 43-37 in the middle of the fourth quarter. However, Trinity would fight back with baskets by Drew Fecko and Alex Simun to close the gap to 43-42. The rest of the fourth quarter saw a back and forth battle between the two teams, as Trinity would use another basket by Simun to lead 49-47, then a basket by Fecko to move to 51-49, and then 15-foot basket by Brian Skladany to take a 53-51 lead. However, Holy Name would score the final four points of the game to take the victory.
Last night, the Trojans would drop their fifth straight game to Western Reserve Academy by a score of 49-41. It was a cold shooting night for Trinity as several shots from the inside were not falling and the defense struggled to defend on a consistent basis. Trinity trailed at halftime, scoring just 18 points and allowing 20. In the third quarter, Trinity would make a couple of small runs to led by a maximum of three points, but Western Reserve would fight back to take control of the third quarter and ultimately the game.

Trinity drops third straight (5-3); lose to warren JFK
January 9, 2012
The first game of 2012 wasn't what the Trojan faithful had hoped for as Trinity fell to Warren JFK . The Trojans led at the end of one by a score of 11-10, but a poor shooting first half and lack of energy was too tough to overcome. The Trojans used an early 4th quarter to rally back on the road, closing the gap to as a little as two points, but the Eagles of JFK held onto the lead they had built all night. The Trojans who still stand at a respectable record of 5-3, will play host to Holy Name on Friday night. In the past couple of years, this game has resulted in wins for both the Trojans and the Green Wave of Holy Name. This year should be just as competitive as before.

trinity moves to 5-1 after a split week
December 19, 2011
The third week of the 2011-12 basketball season started the same as the first two with a Trinity win over visiting St. Martin Deporres High School 70-28. The 5-0 start was one of the best starts in recent memory for the Trinity Trojans Basketball program. Tuesday's fifth win was led in part by a team effort of 20 assists, led by Senior Ryan McSweeney (4) and sophomore Jake Gerrick (4). The Trojan defense came up with 18 steals, as well with McSweeney, Gerrick and junior, Darin Snyder sharing the team lead with 3 each. Trinity shot near 50% from the field, including 40% from three point range. The leading scorers for the game were juniors, Drew Fecko (16), Darin Snyder (13), and Jerid Dissauer (9).
On Friday night the Trinity faced a tough conference in Cleveland Central Catholic. CCC jumped on Trinity early, as they hit 4 three pointers and outrebounded the Trojans in the first half on their way to a 35-17 halftime lead. The second half was a different story, as the Trojans made up for a poor shooting first half and outscored CCC 18-10 in the third quarter. Trinity would continue to fight back in the 4th quarter to close the CCC margain to seven points, but turnovers on three straight possessions would limit their chances. Fecko led the team with 17 points, Snyder 13, and Brian Skladany added 10, as Ryan McSweeney would collect 10 rebounds. Trinity (5-1, 0-1) dropped their first game of the season after a great start. They will be in action on Friday night as they welcome another difficult conference opponent in Villa-Angela Saint Joseph.

The Boys Basketball team put out a fabulous effort on this past Tuesday night as they played host to Brooklyn High School. The team got out of the gates early, scoring 26 points in the first quarter and having all 5 starters score within the first 15 points of the game. The success of the starting five was followed up by a terrific defensive performance by the second team as they held Brooklyn to only 8 second quarter points; keeping the lead at 11 (34-23) when they entered the half. The Trojans used a solid unselfish team effort to go to 3-0 as they tallied up 22 total assists. Junior, Darin Snyder led the way with 6 helpers, while Junior Travis Hohman and Sophomore Jake Gerrick added 4 assists of their own. Senior, Ryan McSweeney was the high rebound man with 7 rebounds, but Jack Gerrick (6) and Alex Simun (5) were not to be outdone on the glass. Trinity took a 3-0 record into their game Friday against Lake Ridge Academy and used an early first quarter performance where nine of their players scored in the first quarter, to improve to 4-0.
