Sr. Girls Basketball Team<br />

Congratulations to the Senior Girls' Basketball Team for coming 4th place in the<br />

league!<br />

With an 8:30am game against Meadowridge, the Titans were down by 12 points<br />

going into the third quarter. The team put together a strong defensive effort that<br />

generated some key steals and outscored the other team in the last quarter. The<br />

Titans narrowed the scoring gap to 3 points. With 2.8 seconds left on the clock<br />

the girls made an excellent attempt but unfortunately came out short! Top<br />

scorers were Ashina Nagra with 14 points and Jastej Sidhu with 10 points. The<br />

final score was 41-38.<br />

Our next game to determine 3rd or 4th place was against Carver Christian. Going<br />

in with an exhausted group of girls, the game turned out to be tougher than we<br />

expected. The minutes flew by and the girls pulled together in the last four<br />

minutes, ending off their last game with gusto. However, their efforts were not<br />

enough and the Titans ended up 4th place.<br />

Thank you for everyone who supported us through the season and we look<br />

forward to a great one next year!<br />

Sr. Boys Basketball Team<br />

The Sr. Boys Basketball Team played their second round playoff game against<br />

Deer Lake School yesterday afternoon at the church gym. The team got off to a<br />

slow start, and were down by 10 points at the end of the first half. In the third<br />

quarter, Deer Lake was leading by as many as 15 points, but our boys didn't give<br />

up and battled back to tie the game mid-way through the fourth quarter!<br />

Although we outscored our opponents 23-15 in the fourth quarter, it wasn't<br />

enough to secure the victory and we lost the game by a score of 61-56. The<br />

leading scorers for the Titans were Irwind Bhatti (27 points), Kevin Shen (12<br />

points), and Eric Bhatti (8 points). It was a very exciting game with lots of fan<br />

support and a great atmosphere in the gym. This marks the end of the season for<br />

the Sr. Boys and the team would like to thank all the students, teachers, and<br />

parents who have supported them at all the home games this year.
