FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Notebook: Shamrocks Announce Schedule Change
Shamrocks in the National Rankings

LOUISVILLE, Ky. – No. 1 Trinity’s game with Eastern scheduled for tonight has been cancelled due to the winter storm in the Louisville area, it was announced Tuesday morning. The game will not be made up.

Six senior student-athletes were to be honored in a pre-game ceremony prior to their final home game in Steinhauser Gymnasium. The six members of Trinity’s senior class on the basketball team are leading Mr. Basketball Candidate Josh Sewell, Taylor Epley, Clayton Netherton, Dylan Kupper, Aaron Bisig and Daniel Corbett.

The Shamrocks are currently ranked number one in the state of Kentucky and have won 21 consecutive games overall. The team has not lost since Dec. 15, 2009 in the fourth game of the season. Trinity is now 23-2 on the season, posting the second most wins in program history behind the 29 wins in 2004-2005. The team is unbeaten away from home, posting a 19-0 record in such games.

The Eastern cancellation marked the third game this year that has been cancelled by weather. Trinity had games with Daviess County and Jeffersontown cancelled earlier this season while the DeSales game was moved to Friday, Feb. 19, 2010. The game at DeSales was originally planned for Jan. 8, 2010.

Trinity has had five games cancelled over the last two seasons that were not made up due to weather.

The Shamrocks have played just four games in the month of February and seven games since winning the 2010 Coca-Cola/Republic Bank Louisville Invitational Tournament on Jan. 16, 2010, all due to weather conditions in the area.

Chambless’ 12 first half points, including nine in the second quarter, and a plethora of blocks by the Shamrocks allowed the Rocks to keep the game close at 29-21 at halftime. Trinity cut the lead to 31-28 before the Bulldogs closed the quarter on a 13-3 run to end the third period when Male took their largest lead at 44-31. The Shamrocks responded in the fourth quarter, outscoring the Bulldog 16-4 to cut the lead to 48-47 in the final minute before costly turnovers and a questionable intentional foul call cost the Shamrocks a chance at the end as the Bulldogs escaped with a 52-47 win.

Aaron Tierney was unavailable for the finish of the game after suffering an injury in a Feb. 5, 2008 game against Waggener.
• Dec. 27, 2004: A leak in the Lexington Catholic roof forced Trinity’s opening round game with Montgomery County in the Fifth Third Bank Classic to be moved to the school’s old gymnasium.
