Boys’ Basketball Victorious on Senior Night
What an unforgettable Senior Night it was! Seven varsity basketball seniors and their families were honored prior to tip-off: Austin Biggica, Matthew Dougherty, Rahsen Fisher (Co-Captain), JP Marchetti (Mgr), Tahjee Morgan, Malcolm Newman (Co-Captain), Jason Pazmino (Mgr.)
Coach K set the tone with an all-Senior starting lineup ... and they didn't disappoint! Every Senior scored and contributed mightily to an impressive 75-51 win over Norwalk's Brien McMahon on a packed Walsh Court. Crusader Nation supported their team with a black-out and enthusiastic cheers throughout the night! There was even a surprise visit from "ESPN" commentators (our own Jackson Uhl and Andrew Ellis), covering all of the action and excitement.
The evening continued with our basketball family celebrating the team's win and continuing to honor our Seniors and their families – thanks to a delicious pasta dinner generously provided by the Michael Marchetti family.
The night represented all that is Trinity Catholic! With grateful hearts and intense energy, we continue to support our Crusaders through two more regular season games and into the playoffs! #Represent! #GrAttitude!

Light a candle!
Stressed out? Need prayer? Come and talk to God.
CANDLES are now available for the whole TCHS Community to light in the Chapel any time, day or night. They will burn for about a day.
Candles are one of the oldest symbols of prayer we have. They represent the presence of Christ, the Light of the World, and also by using themselves up to give light, they remind us of His Sacrifice on the Cross when He gave Himself up completely to save us.
A donation of $1 is requested for each candle – please use the honesty box at the back of the chapel.
