Titans ready to contend for basketball title Continued from page 18 19 · Wednesday, October 3, 2012 OAKVILLE BEAVER · www.insideHALTON.com PHOTOS BY ERIC RIEHL / OAKVILLE BEAVER @HALTON_PHOTOG the semifinals. Notre Dame lost to Loyola by two points in the Halton championship game. Holy Trinity's season had both its peaks and its valleys. While their 6-0 start had highlights such as their double overtime win over the Fightin' Irish, their inexperience showed down the stretch, as they finished 2-4, including a loss to the 5-7 Georgetown Rebels. The Titans have learned from that, though. "They have a little more swagger," says coach Anthony Pugliese. "They're more of a team. Their strength, their maturity and their communication have all improved." The Titans showed how far they have come Monday, scoring a convincing 53-35 victory over Notre Dame that featured a balanced attack. McNeil (13) and Delaney Hughes (12) both hit double figures, while Jamieson had nine, Mara Briscoe -- a Grade 10 who moved into a starter's role this season -- had five and Liana Hughes had four. "We came out ready to play hard," said Jamieson, who plays rep with Blessed Sacrament, after many years in the Oakville Vytis system. "We wanted to make a statement and we pulled out a promising win." The Titans looked like a team with promise last year. This year, they hope to realize that potential.
