Trinity wins the LIT. They also have won this season the KOB and the Lexington Catholic tourney. VERY hard to win one, let alone all 3. They are my pick to be #1 in the state now.

Trinity Trifecta

I was talking about that game they played against the Alabama team I believe. The Refs missed way too many calls. I could careless who won but you could tell who was gonna win the game and not by talent.

Trinity played the McEachern GA team and beat them 24. Unless the refs had fouled Trae Golden out quickly, which they didn't, I'm not sure how you can say that they had any outcome on this one!

Face it, Trinity is playing very well now and if they can continue to improve, they have a shot to win the 7th!

Great tournament by the Rocks. This should certainly prove to the doubters that T is legit, including myself
