It was a busy week for the Holy Trinity sports teams as many competed in various playoff games. All the teams left their heart and passion out on the field or at the gym. The Senior Girls Basketball team came very close to winning the Tier 1 Halton final as well as the GHAC 4A Semi-Final. Although the team lost, it was a great season and the Titans family is proud! The Junior Girls Field Hockey team beat the Aldershot High School team 2-0 in the quarter finals to advance to the semi-final against Craig Kielburger High School, but lost that game 4-0. Meanwhile, the Senior Girls Field Hockey team made it to the Tier 2 quarter final game against T.A. Blakelock but lost a tough one by a score of 2-1. On Friday and Saturday, the Senior Boys Basketball team began their season with the Holy Trinity Tip-Off tournament at HT. Ignas Brazdeikis was named a tournament all-star after the Titans won a bronze medal. All three Varsity Curling rinks (curling term for teams) won their games on Monday. The Senior Boys Hockey team played their final preseason game on Monday against Mt. Carmel before their season starts. Our Junior Boys Football team, after winning the Tier 1 quarter final against Christ the King, made it to the semi-final game, but they lost then to the Nelson Lords. The undefeated Senior Boys Football team won their Tier 1 semi-final game against Corpus Christi and advanced into the Halton final against Assumption, where they were crowned as the first Oakville team to win the championship. Their GHAC semi-final game is this Thursday, November, 20th against Cardinal Newman. Come out and support your Titans!
