Titans fans had plenty to cheer about last Friday when the senior team took to the field and utterly demolished the competition.
The Titans defeated the Strathmore Spartans by a colossal 68-0. The game was only the second in the Titans’ regular season schedule.
The Drumheller Senior Titans were unstoppable on Friday, September 6, against the Strathmore Spartans. The Titans, coming off a 20-19 loss against the Crescent Heights Vikings, out of Calgary, dominated the Spartans 68-0 on the Drumheller Valley Secondary School field. The Titans are back at home on Saturday to take on the George McDougall Mustangs, who are visiting from Airdrie.
“Last week we challenged the guys to step up and fill their roles better and they did. This is what happens when you have everyone playing as a team,” said head coach Ken Fournier.
The Titans were in control the entire game. On offence, the team was able to capitalize on big passes and the running game.
Conversely, the Spartans offence couldn’t gain any traction against the Titans defence, who generated a number of key tackles, sacks, and turnovers to keep the Spartans scoreless.
“There were tackles coming from all over the defence. On offence, there were seven different guys who scored,” said Fournier.
The win comes after a narrow 20-19 defeat for the Titans at the hands of the Crescent Heights Vikings, out of Calgary.
“We had a couple tough games right off the bat. Getting this win is great, but a ‘W’ is a ‘W,’” said Fournier.
The Titans were scheduled to play again this weekend, but their game against the George McDougall Mustangs, out of Airdrie, has been cancelled. The Titans’ next game is an away game on September 20.
