Hi Michelle,
Honeycrisp will pollinate Triumph. They flower at almost the same time. Crabapples with single white flowers are excellent pollinators for apples too. The pollinating tree can be within a couple blocks — bees travel.
This is a chart with other pollinators listed: https://www.cumminsnursery.com/buy-trees/pollenizer.php?id=14394&type=tree
I think with both Honeycrisp and Triumph in your yard you should be fine.
