| TITANS CORNER - CONGRATULATIONS TO JUSTIN ABRARY | |
|
|
| Congratulations to Justin Abrary on being selected for the 2016 North Shore's Second All-Star Team for Senior Boys Soccer. Justin, a natural central attacking midfielder, was the only G10 that made the All-Star Team - a well-deserved selection due to his fierce competitiveness and tenacious work ethic, both of which he brought to the field every game. He was one of the Senior Boys' most prolific scorers and was extremely valuable to the team as one of its most dangerous strikers. | |
