Deerfield, Ill. - Senior James Pennington scored 22 points and grabbed eight rebounds, but the Trinity International (11-14, 7-10 CCAC) offense proved too much to handle and Trinity Christian College men's basketball (10-14, 6-11 CCAC) fell 110-87 on Thursday night. 

Junior Erik Cohn posted a career high 20 points on 6-for-10 shooting and 3-for-6 from the three-point line. 

With the Trolls trailing 13-11 in the first five minutes, the Trojans received a huge dunk from Leon Williams. That dunk ignited a 16-2 run and Trinity International took a 29-13 lead with 11:27 to play in the first half. 

Two minutes later, sophomore Braxton Barnhizer had a layup to cut the lead to eight, but the Trojans went on another 16-2 run and led by double digits for the rest of the night.
