PALOS HEIGHTS, Ill. – Sophomore Aiden Cilladi earned the first weekly honor of the season for Trinity Men's Basketball, as the CCAC named Cilladi the conference's Defensive Player of the Week on Tuesday.

Cilladi helped lead the Trolls to a pair of conference victories last week, including a home win over reigning CCAC champs Indiana Northwest on Wednesday night. The Oviedo, Fla. native finished with seven rebounds, two blocks and a steal while the Trolls held the RedHawks to 20 points less than their scoring average in an 80-54 win.

On Saturday, Cilladi picked up six rebounds, two assists and a steal in Trinity's first win at Judson since 2015-16.

The Trolls continue the current four-game road trip on Friday afternoon, when they take on No. 12 Grace (Ind.).
