Blessed Trinity Wins 2011 Area Championship in Record-Setting Fashion!
In a match eerily reminiscent of the 2006 State Championship, the Titans stormed back after being down two sets to none to take the area championship 3-2! Along the way, the Titans set or tied several school records. The team set the school record for assists in a match (a performance that ranks third all-time in the state) and tied school records for kills and digs in a match. Also, Maggie Rick set a school record for assists in a match with 54 (which ranks fifth all-time in the state), and Mary Carter Thornton added a school record 41 digs in the match, which qualifies as the second best performance in state history!
At the end of the night, Maggie Rick, Abby Feruck, Molly McAlvany, and Jessica Holler were named to the All-Area Team. In addition, Mary Carter Thornton was selected as the Area Player of the Year, and Coach Paul Stevens was selected as the Area Coach of the Year.
Congratulations, Titans!

Blessed Trinity Wins the 2010 State Championship!
After a four year absence from the state finals, the Titans stormed back to the title game in 2010. The Titans did not drop a single game in the state tournament, winning shutout victories over Providence Christian, Savannah Christian, Our Lady of Mercy, and Lovett en route to the championship match against Athens Academy.
Game one was close from start to finish, but the Titans used a late push to take the first game 25-22. With the Titans down 8-7 in the second game, two service runs vaulted the team to a 15-9 lead, and they never looked back, capturing the second game 25-15. In game three, the Titans sprinted to leads of 12-4, 17-7, and 22-10, ultimately winning the game 25-16 and the match 3 games to none.
"This team was so special," said Blessed Trinity coach Paul Stevens after the match. "They have so much talent, but more importantly, they play with such joy and passion. The coaching staff knew that we had something special all the way back in August, and the players didn't disappoint. I'm so happy for this team, and for this group of seniors, that they know what it feels like to be called champions."
Serve for the Cure 2010 Most Successful Ever!
The 2010 edition of the annual varsity Serve for the Cure Invitational Tournament was the most successful ever! On the court, the team went 7-1 before losing a hard-fought match to Chattahoochee in the finals. But more importantly, the team raised $5,053.16 for breast cancer research! Special thanks to Pizza Vito, Blessed Trinity's official pizza sponsor, who contributed $1,000 to the cause!

The third time truly was the charm when the Lady Titans went up against the defending state champs,
The championship match went to five games, with
“What an incredible match,” said a beaming Paul Stevens, head BT volleyball coach, who admittedly lost all composure when the final whistle blew. “To come back from such a deficit took every single player on the team believing – believing in themselves, believing in each other, and believing we could do it. Even when things weren’t looking good for us, no one on this team gave up. I can’t say enough about the character and the heart of this team, and our seniors did an amazing job setting that tone for the team.”
