Why did it take so long for this story to be posted (2:21 am)? It sounds like it was written as an after thought.

Great Job titans! Congrats! Great article about Brittney but, I would love to mention what a great team effort that game was! The paper seemed to forget that the Titans made a run to get back in the game with Brittney sitting on the bench! Ashley Hunsaker was a huge part of that run with two huge 3 point plays and was 6 for 6 at the line! Kiana Fonua hit two huge 3 pointers to get us back in the game also and Jennifer Haslett hit a 3 pointer at the end of the game to hold on to the lead! I just thought that was just as important to mention! Great team Effort Girls!!! Way to go!

The ony "titans" in utah play for olympus. Folks from syracuse couldn't even come up with an original mascot?

Ashley Hunsaker yes deserves some credit I agree she was definately a HUGE part of that win! Oh and you forgot to mention that Fonua also hit a 10 foot jumper to tie the game up! Tremendous Win! That was a good Pleasant Grove team you beat! Congrats to the REAL TITANS!!!!!!!!

Way to go TITANS.... You have had a great year and the way you are playing now proves how hard you have worked. You girls played like a team and that is what it takes to win. It would be hard to highlight every girl and it looked to me like Brittney made some important shots, blocks and rebounds . Good luck tonight...

Maybe Martin was on the bench because of foul trouble or problems with her foot? Who knows.....all of the girls did a great job and perhaps Martin was pointed out because she is only a 9th grader and because she was put to the test by throwing two free throws in front of a roaring and sometimes "booing" crowd. Pretty great composure for one so young. Maybe someone is jealous that she is getting a little spotlight right now...........get over it...I think we will hear alot more about her in the next 3 years. Go Titans.

Oh WAH WAH not two schools with the same mascot? What will we ever do. Go Syracus Titans see ya next year at state...
