TU Womens Soccer

The women’s soccer team has gotten off to an incredible 4-1 start to the season. With Coach Lance Key at the helm of the program entering his seventh season as the Women’s Tiger Soccer coach, with an outstanding record of 88-13-10 so far in his career our girls will surely have a great season. Currently our girls are ranked 17th in the country and 3rd in the west region. With junior forward Kelly Watts leading the way with seven goals in only five games the Tigers have amassed sixteen goals so far this season. The defense is led by senior all America defender Danika Wright. Also sophomore goalkeeper Katie Garrett has been a wall so far this season only allowing six goals so far. The only loss this season for the Lady Tigers came against Hardin-Simmons in a crushing 4-0 defeat, but our girls bounced back with two straight wins on their road trip to UT-Tyler where they swept the competition. The Lady Tigers hosted their first home game against UC Santa Cruz where they blew away the competition with a 5-0 shutout. The tigers will be traveling to Hendrix for their next game, will not be in action here at Trinity until Monday October 4th at 7:00 pm when they take on the crusaders of Mary-Hardin Baylor.

First Week of Tiger Football

 

The Tigers opened their season up last Saturday here at E.M. Stevens Field hosting Howard Payne University. With 2,250 Trinity students and tiger fans in attendance, the Tigers were ready for action. The Tigers struck first with a 30 yard field goal by sophomore kicker Garret Biel.  After falling behind early 8-3 the Tigers answered back with a senior connection, between senior quarterback Robert Davidson and  senior receiver Daniel South.  After halftime the Tigers were trailing by one 17-18, but with strong play in the fourth quarter, they made there way into overtime. After two grueling overtimes Trinity came out on top with a score of 40-34. Robert Davidson led the passing attack with 221 yards passing and 3 touchdowns through the air. The Trinity offense accounted for a total of 421 yards of offense. The Tiger defense was led by Antonio Debouse and Thomas Puskarich, who each accounted for ten tackles. This was the first game since 2003 that Trinity ended regulation with a tie. Entering Coach Steve Mohr's 21st season at the helm of Trinity Football, this was his first double overtime event. The Tigers have this weekend off, but will be in action at E.M. Stevens field next Saturday hosting SCAC rival Rhodes College.
