Weekend Round-up - Basketball January 27th, 2007

St. Mary's 55 - St. Maur's 13

After beginning the new year with two tough losses, the Grade 8 Titans are now riding a 3-game winning streak. Saturday's first game saw the visiting St. Maur Marauders take on the Titans at the Titan Dome. Though the team started slowly, strong second and third quarters and a harassing full-court press made the difference as the Titans rolled to a 55-13 victory. Nine Titans made the scoring sheet with Yuta Kobayashi leading the way with 19 points. Shakhar Kumar had his best game of the season, scoring 9 points mainly from inside the paint. Yuya Yoshida and Mark Dunphy each had 5 points for St. Mary's.

St. Mary's 31 - YIS 7

Saturday's second game pitted the TItans against visiting YIS. The Titans' press was too much for YIS as St. Mary's quickly went up 21-0 in the first quarter. Leading the way for St. Mary's was Mark Dunphy with 9 points. Pranav Mehra came off the bench and quickly found his shooting rythm, hitting three quick jump shots for 6 points. The final score was 37-7 for St. Mary's.
The team plays at home on Friday in their last game of the regular season against Aoba International School (at home).
