The Holy Trinity Titans senior girls volleyball team was noticeably rusty coming off their first of two long breaks this season.
Their game following the Christmas holidays didn't yield a performance the Titans had hoped for. But in their first contest after the two-week exam break, it was a much different story.
Even though the team hadn't been on the court since early January or finished on top in their home tournament in more than three years, the Titans bucked that trend by toppling seven other clubs in their annual invitational on Wednesday. The day was a long, gratifying one for the Titans and their supporters.
"I've never won it," said fifth year co-captain Allie Decker, who was playing with a torn back muscle.
"It feels great, I'm exhausted, I think we're all exhausted, but winning at home is definitely the best. When you have the fans here because you're at home and the support of the student body too, it really makes a difference."
The Titans dropped just two sets all day, both to John F. Ross of Guelph, whom they met in the final. |

There was a definite playoff atmosphere clinging to the air at Holy Trinity last night.
Thanks to the extremely tight NSSAA senior boys basketball standings, games in mid-January before the exam break have become more important every time out.
The Titans vs. Port Dover Lakers match-up last night had some serious post-season implications and with an 18-point second quarter, Holy Trinity won its second game of the week to not only improve their record to an even 3-3, but get a leg up in what has become a dogfight for the final playoff positions. |

Though they would eventually fall in the semifinals, the Holy Trinity junior Titans took a giant step towards repeating as NSSAA champs in their home volleyball tournament yesterday.
The Titans hosted seven other teams -- three from Norfolk -- for a one day bash. Not only did Holy Trinity avenge a regular season loss against the first-place Port Dover Lakers, they were the only Norfolk school to qualify for the playoff round. With five wins in nine sets, the Titans placed second in Pool A, and faced the Assumption College Lions in the semifinals. |
