The Sacramento High School Dragons received their first loss on home court on February 1, 2011. The start of the game was phenomenal for the Dragons until the third quarter came along. The anticipation arises when the Luther Burbank Titans tie the game (59-59).  The Dragons push through, but its not enough and the Titans over came the Dragons in the fourth quarter ending the game with the score of (80-74).
After the start of the third quarter, former player, James Townsend felt helpless and his frustration was building up. He quoted, “My team needed me on the court to take the win.” After being benched game after game, J.T. (#2) had no choice but to keep his positive attitude and his head held up high. He waits for his return to play in the next game on February 8, 2011. 
Aaron Cameron fought his way to win this game but unfortunately didn’t succeed. A.C. (#10) felt angry and disappointed because he knew he could have done better to win it for the Dragons. He quoted that “Burbank does whatever it takes to win and they are really aggressive on the court.” 
Robert Garret also had a huge impact in the game against Burbank that evening. He felt very angry because it was their first loss at home. He knew that Burbank has very talented athletes but RG (#25) keeps moving forward with his head up high. He believes that if the Sac High Dragons cover perimeter and gets those rebounds, they are capable of being unbeatable.
