Cross Country
The cross country teams had two meets last weekend, the Harrison Panther Invite at El Pomar Sports Center here in Colorado Springs, and the Running from the Past Classic in Greeley. The team enjoyed the cooler temperatures over the weekend as many athletes ran their best 5k times ever. Some kids ran their first 5ks last weekend and are doing a great job. The competition in Greeley included most of the best teams in 3A, and the Titans won both team titles. This week, the team heads northwest to Lyons on Saturday for one of the biggest meets of the season, the St. Vrain Invitational. Over 60 schools from across Colorado are scheduled to compete, and the Titans will run in the 4a/5a schools' division with the best of the best.
Men's Golf
The TCA men’s golf team completed the 4th of 5 CSML North tournaments on Monday at the Air Force Academy. They are solidly in second place in the league behind Falcon high school. Leading the Titans was junior Nathan Valentine with a score of 74. His freshman brother, Zac, had an 85, and senior Ryan Heiser completed the team scoring with a 90.
On Wednesday, we play our 5th and last CSML at Spring Valley golf course near Elizabeth.
Next week we will compete in the all-important regional tournament at Walking Stick in Pueblo.
Men's Soccer

This week the Titans will face Canon City on Tuesday (9/13) at TCA, JV at 5:00 and V at 7:00. On Friday the Titans will travel to Cheyenne Mountain High School with JV at 4:30 and V at 6:30. GO TITANS!!!
Cheer
Football
Three down and six to go for the TCA Titan footballers. That is, of course, after a well-earned bye week.
TCA is already a third of the way through its season with 3 wins. Last week, TCA traveled to Alamosa and jumped out to a 35 to 0 lead by halftime before cruising to a 42 to 14 victory against a team many believe could compete for the Tri-Peaks League crown.
Sophomore Quarterback Andrew Brown threw a pair of touchdown passes, the first was his first as a varsity starter, and ran for another, also his first at this level. Aaron Johnson picked off 2 Mean Moose passes and Ethan Aragundi contributed with 2 scores and his 3rd 100 plus yard rushing game in 3 tries.
The Titans are off this weekend, next Friday they take on in-town rival Sand Creek at the “Scorpion Pit.”
Volleyball
Women's Softball
The softball team had a large windmill to charge this past week by playing 6 games in 6 days. The games included playing in the Pueblo Hornet Tournament over Friday and Saturday. The softball team played extremely well throughout the week, taking 2 wins when it was all said and done. This week, they face the top two teams in the league, Falcon and Elizabeth. They continue to work on getting better every day, every game and every play and they always go in with the focus on playing to the best of their ability. The team is now over halfway through the schedule and is set on finishing the season strong.
