Tigers Go Out with a Bang

The Trinity football team was looking at its worst heading into its last two games of the season. Morale was down, practices seemed dreary and unmotivated. But all this changed when it came to Saturday's game vs. Centre. Centre was on the brink of a conference title and all they had to do was beat Trinity at home and it was over. Little did they know, the Tigers were not going to lose their last home game. Everyone played lights out including the seniors who were playing there last home game ever. Trinity came out and dominated Centre lead by senior running back Chris Baer who showed his true ability in this game. Coming off this win the Tigers went into their last game against Austin College in Sherman, Texas. The Tiger got off to an early lead and did not look back as they destroyed the Roos in a blowout victory. Overall it was an exciting year of Trinity Football ending with a 7-3 record. The Tigers only have high hopes for next season as many of their starters are returning. I enjoyed writing this blog and I hope you enjoyed reading it. See you next season.

Tigers are Struggling

Coming off a playoff ending loss to DePauw, Trinity was down but still wanted to salvage some pride the next week against Azuza Pacific. Having no idea what this team was going to be like, Trinity practiced as hard as they could for this home game. Azuza Pacific is a NIAA team that is able to give out scholarships so it was clear they were going to have a different type of athlete. With Dickinson sidelined with a concussion, Robert Davidson stepped in and struggled against a superior opponent. Azuza came out firing and it seemed like they couldn't be stopped. The Tigers ended up losing 55-27 in one of the worst home losses in Trinity University history. It seems that all is lost but the future is bright for the Tigers as they are a very young team. Next week the Tigers will go against another good team in Centre and one can only hope that they can salvage a win before the end of the season.
