Trolls advance in CCAC Tournament with win over Saints

PALOS HEIGHTS, Ill. – A pair of second-half goals at a windy Schaaf Athletic Complex was enough to advance Trinity to the CCAC Tournament semifinals, as the 4th-seeded Trolls knocked off the 5th-seed St. Francis 2-0 in their postseason opener on Saturday afternoon.

The Trolls (11-4-4) had plenty of chances in the first half, with the high winds to their backs, and out-shot St. Francis (12-6-1) by a 12-1 margin before the halftime break. It would take 70 minutes before Trinity would finally break through, when Litzy Corona took Claire Darby's pass and scored on her former squad for the lead and her 16th goal of the season.

Five minutes later, Trinity doubled their lead, on Jade Maldonado's first goal of the season, assisted by Brianna Uhl.

Michelle Urribarri registered her sixth shutout of the season, making five shots in the win.

The Trolls will now prepare for their CCAC Tournament semifinal matchup, against top-seeded Olivet Nazarene. Kickoff with the Tigers from Bourbonnais, Ill. is set for Wednesday, November 9, with the game time to be announced.
