Orlando Titans News Release
New York, NY - The New York Titans' Jarett Park was named NLL Transition Player of the Week. The 25-year-old right-hander scooped a season-high 19 loose balls and scored a goal in the Titans' 10-9 overtime win over Buffalo on Sunday at Madison Square Garden. Park also recorded 12 loose balls in New York's 16-9 loss at Minnesota on Friday.
Park has also earned a nomination for the 2008 NLL All-Star game. Often responsible for doing some of the Titans' dirty work on the field, Park is a loose ball machine and has become Titans' draw-man Jamie Hanford's go-to guy during face-offs. Park has snatched 74 loose balls on the season so far, which is second in the league behind the Jax' Brodie Merrill, who has 79.
In the Titans' game against the Buffalo Bandits at home on February 10th, Park went coast to coast to score a fast break goal in the fourth quarter to bring the Titans into the lead. The goal, his second of the season, energized the crowd and the Titans, who went onto win 10-9 in a thrilling overtime victory.
The Titans next game is on the road against the Chicago Shamrox on Saturday, February 16 at 8pm. The Titans will play their next home game on Saturday, March 22nd at the Sovereign Bank Arena in Trenton, NJ against the Philadelphia Wings at 7:30pm.
