Weekly Schedule

See attached for the last two week Schedule Sep. 28 – end of the season.

In an intense game with playoff implications, Syracuse held on strong and beat a very good Layton Lancers team in OT on Thursday.

Kylie Johnson opened up the scoring in the 13th minute with a beautiful ball from the left corner of the box off of an assist from Kylie Harris. Unfortunately for the Titans, less than a minute later the Lancers responded with a rocket from Mckenzie Humphreys. 

The Titans regrouped and both teams played hard nosed soccer, both teams hit the post off of attacking opportunities . The Titans also barely missed on a set piece opportunity that ricocheted off of the keeper and a corner that sat on the goal line before being cleared by the Lancers with minutes left in regulation.

It was Madison Wilcox, 2 minutes into overtime that hit the golden goal off of a free kick, securing the victory for Syracuse. Gabby Segura played lights out once again, and Abby Hall and Kat Markham anchored the middle of the defense in the win.

The victory kept the Titans in 3rd place in region, 1 point behind the Lancers in the region standings. The victory secured a playoff spot for the Titans with 3 games remaining on the region schedule. This is the 1st time the Titans have qualified for the playoffs since 2009 and only the second time in school history, completing one of the goals the team and coaching staff had set back in May.

Next up the Titans play the Syracuse High Faculty at Titan Field on Tuesday during their bye and then visit region leaders and defending State Champs Davis on Thursday.

The Titans bounced back from a tough loss to Viewmont last week to defeat the West Panthers 6-2 on the road yesterday. Though the Titans dominated the first half, West kept thing interesting by taking the Titans into the half at 1-1. Syracuse got things rolling by scoring 5 second half goals. Kylie Harris kept her hot season going with 2 goals and an assist. She is currently the third leading scorer in 5A. Also scoring for the titans were Kyra Tolbert, Taylore Buchanan, Anne Peterson, and Maddie Wilcox. Grace Nelson had a great game from her defensive position, leading the team with 2 assists and just overall being involved in creating many other opportunities for the team. Kyra Tolbert and Kylie Johnson also added to their assist totals.

Next up for the Titans is an important road game at Layton on Thursday. The game with the Lancers has playoff implications as both teams look to position themselves into a possible home playoff game. #greaterexpectations

The Viewmont Vikings came into Titan Field yesterday looking to avenge a 1-0 loss to Syracuse.  The Vikings came out swinging and controlled the first 10 minutes of the game.  The Titans did their best to weather the storm, but gave up a goal in the 10th minute.  After the goal the girls battled back and made it a game.  With quite a few scoring opportunities just going wide or coming up short, the Titans kept things interesting for most of the game.  However, Viewmont found the net off a rebound from a nice save by Gabby Segura.  Viewmont proved to be a title contender and the Titans continue to prove they belong on the field with the best teams in the state.

Next up for the Titans is a road game against West on Tuesday.

Syracuse’s Kylie Harris continues to make a statement and garner respect throughout the state.  The Standard Examiner did a nice write up of her this morning.

The Lady Titans ended round one of region play on a high note with a two game winning streak and outscoring their opponents 10-0.  Gabby Segura and her stingy defense recorded their 4th shutout of the season on the road against Hunter on Tuesday.  On the offensive side, Kylie Harris (8′, 9′, 12′, 68′) recorded the first four goal game in school history.  Kylie Johnson (4′) had a great game of her own with a goal and two assists.  Myka Bouwhuis (61′) ended her scoring drought with her third goal of the season.  Anne Petersen (43′) also had a great game with an assist and a goal.  Assists also came from Madi Wilcox (2), Grace Nelson and Taya Tobler.

The team currently sits in third place in region two after the first cylce.  The Titans are looking to climb up the standings during the second half of region play and hope to accomplish one of their team goals of hosting a playoff game.

The Titans will first have to get through an outstanding Viewmont team that the Titans shocked 1-0 on the road a few weeks ago.  The Vikings will be hungry to turn the tables on the Titans when they come to Titan Field tomorrow.  Anyone interested in watching a great soccer game between two tough teams will not want to miss this game.  The game is tomorrow at 3:30 pm.  #GREATER EXPECTATIONS
