The Bantam Titans are looking for redemption heading into the twilight of the season, facing Innisfail this Saturday at DVSS Field.
The Bantams have been plugging along this season in a league where there are very strong teams. Innisfail might be a little bit of a better match for the Titans after facing off versus a strong Sylvan Lake squad on September 28 and the last Saturday against Springbank. The Titans fell 50-14.
The Bantam Titans were able to get a jump on the Springbank Phoenix and move the ball well. Despite this, they fell 50-14. This Saturday they are hosting Innisfail, game time, is 10 a.m.
We would have a few errors at time and get behind,” said Coach Ron Thornborough, adding it is tougher to play catch up.
While the score looked lop-sided the Titans were able to continue moving the ball on long drives, however Springbank wouldn’t give up the end zone. The Titans also were strong on defense, but a few errors were costly.
“We were pretty good at times, and they were doing their best in tough games, said Thornborough.
He adds the team also has a few injuries, which hasn’t helped.
Despite this he says the team isn’t getting down.
The Titans wrap up their home stand this Saturday, October 12. They are facing Innisfail at 10 a.m. The Peewee Terrapins play at 1 p.m.
“We have to come out blazing,” said Thornborough. “It would be good to come out and get some points or a touchdown, and then play quarter by quarter.”
