New Season New Expectations

The Uplift Titans basketball team ended the 2008-2009 basketball season with big expectations for the next year. Last season the team was in the blue north a conference in which they went (8-1) and finished second in the conference. They also won a regional championship in the state playoffs, and were this close to winning sectionals. No one in the city expected us to win because we were a new school which gave us really low expectations coming into last year. Going into the season we had a big chip on our shoulders because everyone expected us to lose. We worked hard everyday in practice because we knew that we had something to prove to ourselves and all of our doubters. We had three seniors last year Misgna Paulos, Richard Samuels, and Sened Tesfay who all contributed very big to the team last season. Misgna was the best player on the team last year and the leading scorer, Richard was the big man in the middle who gave us a post presence, and Sened was the heart and soul of the team who inspired everyone to give a little more. With the new season coming up we will miss those guys a lot, but we can not dwell on the past other players just have to steptheir game up and make up for the parts we will be missing. This year we are going up to a new conference the Red North, and we expect to win because this is something we really want. As long as we stay focused and continue to work hard we will have a great season exactly like we expect.

Titan Times

Saturday the Ulift Titans were defeated by the Al Raby Raiders 20-6. The game was hard fought the titans trailed 10-0 at the end of the first half. Even though they were losing the titans came out with the football at half fighting hard. Jamal Carter scored a touchdown at the end of teh third quarter. When the fourth began Raby scored again and teh titans could not strike back, they ended up losing 20-6. When the game was i talked to Mark Henry starting defensive end for the titans he said "We played really hard as a unit, but Raby played harder which gave them the edge." Even thought the Titans lost this game their season is not over with, they still have to win all of their games from now on but this task is not impossible. As long as they play with heart and desire this team will be hard for anyone to beat.

English class throughout the years to me has been a class that i have enjoyed. Last year i took your class and it wasnt very well. As long as you teach the way you did last year then the class will be very fun and easy. for me to learn. i enjoy books that will help you in life not books that are pointless.

Object That Best Represnts Me

One object that best represent me is a basketball. Basketball to me is my life, in many ways it makes me who i am. Most of the time that i spend i use it playing basketball, or watching sports. To me basketball is the best sport that was ever created.
