Box Score PALOS HEIGHTS, Ill. – One thing that is becoming clear about the Trinity Christian College men's soccer team, when the score is tied in sudden death overtime, get the ball to Elijah DenBleyker. DenBleyker has three goals on his young career and two of them are golden goals in overtime to lift the Trolls to victory. That was the case on Saturday, Oct. 2 when Trinity used a late second half goal off the foot of Alejandro Sotelo to send the contest with cross town rivalry Saint Xavier University into overtime. Then, in the 98th minute of play, DenBleyker took a pass from Grant Koops and sent the ball past the Cougar's keeper and send the Trolls into mayhem which culminated with a midfield dog pile that would put any championship team to shame.
