Varsity Jells into The varsity basketball team began the season by winning the title in the PSL tournament. During this tournament they defeated Chicago Christian, the only PSL team to do so throughout the entire season. The team was taller than it has been in recent years. This was an asset that enabled them to finish second in the PSL, The Timothy holi- day tournament was disappointing be- cause the Trojans finished third, but the experience gained was helpful in preparing for the state tournament Solid Team later in the year. For the first time, the IHSA tournament was split into two divisions, Class A and AA. Timothy competed only against class A schools, those with an enrollment of 750 or less. The area class A regionals were hosted by Timothy. The team made a strong showing in regional competition, de- feating lmmaculate Conception by two points in the first game. However they were defeated in the final game by St. Mel, losing 57 to 49 in double overtime.
