Holy Trinity Titans girls soccer team unleashed its offence on May 15, scoring five times – their highest goal output of the season - to defeat Cayuga 5-1 in the AABHN South Division championship game in Delhi.

Scoring for the 2025 South Division champions were Aaliyah Hoover (2), Erica VanNetten (2), and Chelsie Spriet.

Holy Trinity was scheduled to play a CWOSSA AA qualifier May 21, also in Delhi, in a one-game cross-over with the North Division.

“Today, they were doing everything we asked them to do,” said Holy Trinity co-coach Rebecca Suprun, who along with co-coaches Stephanie Haak and Cheri McCallum, was pleased with their all-round game.

The Titans did everything they were asked to do ‘all year long,’ nodded McCallum, noting that was actually Suprun’s half-time talk.

“You’re passing, you’re open, you’re shooting, you’re talking…” said Suprun.

“This season we haven’t been taking a lot of shots… but we got the results. Most games we controlled – all season – but it was just about actually scoring. Today, we were shooting the ball, taking the shots.”

“They’ve been getting better each game,” said Haak.

“And they are very positive,” said McCallum.

“They are very supportive of each other,” Suprun nodded. “A lot of energy from the girls that were on the bench.”

Holy Trinity (3-1-2) finished third in the Brant-Haldimand-Norfolk South standings, defeating second-place Waterford (4-2-0) 2-1 in the May 13 semifinals.

“We’re saying, ‘keep doing what you’re doing,” said Suprun summing up expectations going into the CWOSSA qualifier. “Win next week and go to CWOSSA.”
