Games v Father Judge HS
Freshman
The opening exchanges saw Trinity burst out to an 8 point lead with Tom Mackenzie working really hard to find the offensive rebounds under heavy pressure and get the put back baskets. Sebastian Diaz made some good decisions with the ball and some excellent passing from Jed Keogh helped with the lead. Passing inaccuracy and a lack of composure meant Trinity gave up the lead in the second half which they were never to gain again in the game.
Junior Varsity
Some awesome outside shooting and full court pressure from Father Judge saw Trinity make some errors, errors that they have continued to make over the course of the tour. Capitulation were words on the lips of the crowd as the team could not cope with the pace and offence that was in front of them. After some self analysis and honest internal student lead reflection, Trinity came out and won the second half, even though the game was out of contention.
Varsity Loss
Once again Father Judge were very impressive with their control and shooting, hitting 5 from 5 in the first quarter from outside the three point line and 9 baskets from long range in the first half. Riley Smith Max Peters and Callum Price ( who had a nice jump hook) all tried hard but Jayden Tanevski was the one who entertained the crowd. Jayden's shots had the crowd in oohs and ahhs with his speed and agility to get to the basket.
Many thanks to Father Judge Athletic Director Jimmy Lynch , who we met in Boston in 2011. He went past the call of duty to make Trinity welcome at his school and made up a special shirt for all players for the day. This shirt had both schools logos on it and with an great quote from famous coach John Wooton. The function that we had after the game shows that Father Judge has a great community behind them. We look forward to hosting this school in Sydney in the future.
