Titans of the Decade

Four Trinity basketball players earn All-Decade honors
As the 2010s came to a close, the Richmond Times-Dispatch released their All-Decade high school basketball teams featuring three former Titans and one current student. 

The boys team includes Zach Jacobs ’17, Armando Bacot ’19 and Henry Coleman III ’20. The girls team includes Elaina Chapman ’19. 

Excerpts from the Times-Dispatch:

Jacobs:
“Highlights: A 6-foot-8 stretch-4, Jacobs was the All-Metro player of the year in 2017 when he averaged 21 points and 9 rebounds, and Trinity went 35-1 to claim the VISAA state title. In the championship game, Jacobs scored 38 points. When he was a junior, he was named third-team All-Metro.

Since high school: Jacobs is a junior at James Madison, where he averages 8 points.”

Bacot:
“Highlights: Bacot is perhaps the most dominant post player on the all-decade team. He was the All-Metro player of the year in 2018-19 as a junior, averaging 24 points, 12 rebounds and three blocks, and Trinity was ranked No. 1 or 2 in the T-D Top 10 all year. As a sophomore, he was perhaps the area’s most improved player, averaging 20 points, 12 rebounds and earning All-Metro status.

Since high school: Bacot transferred IMG Academy in Florida for his senior season and is now a freshman at North Carolina, where he averages 11 points.”

Coleman:
“Highlights: A forward who can power under the hoop and move gracefully around the court, Coleman was named All-Metro player of the year in 2018-19 as a junior, averaging 26 points and 12 rebounds for Trinity. As a sophomore, he was named second-team All-Metro. He has signed with Duke.”

Chapman:
“Highlights: The 6-2 forward was named All-Metro player of the year as a senior when she averaged 20 points, 11 rebounds and 3 steals, shooting 57 percent for the area’s top-ranked team. She was named first-team All-Metro as a junior, third-team as a sophomore, and she graduated as Trinity's all-time leading scorer in girls basketball with 2,060 points. She also recorded 1,120 career rebounds. 

Since high school: She's now a freshman at the University of Richmond, where she has played in every game, averaging 18 minutes, 5 points and 5 rebounds.”
