A big shout out to the HT football team for their gutty performance Friday afternoon against cross town rivals SCS.  The Titans came out with a win by a close score of 13-12 to clinch 2nd place in league play, and finish the regular season with a 3-1 record.  Standout performances offensively came from Taye Lovell, Cam Pearson, and Chase Bacher.  Defensive shout outs go to Kiefer Binkley, Nolan Heeg and Trey Ward.  The Titans will play in the semi final game this Friday at home against either PJ or Waterford.  The real season begins this week.  Time to get to work.

Starting today at lunch, Holy Trinity will be holding a Games Room every day at lunch.  Please feel free to bring your lunch to room 149 (cosmo room) to participate in a variety of board and card games of your choice.  Feel free to come with a friend or to come alone and meet some new friends at HT.   We look forward to seeing you there!

Thank you.  Ian and I have already spoken to some kids who are excited to have this room back up and running.  I hope it goes well.  I will also make sure there is a sign out binder at the door each day.
