Baxter Titans
Scouting report: Known for player height and ability to defend passing lanes.
History: The Baxter Titans were one of the original 8 teams in the league. Founded by Melvin Baxter, they are the only original team that has yet to win a playoff game.
Players: The Titans field a well balanced team, but they lack any substitution depth. They try to play close games and are more likely to keep the scores low and try to win that way.
Field: The Titans play at the Paterson Hills Park, a public park near some woods, which lacks dedicated amenities or stands. This can be annoying sometimes, because if the park is busy, you hear the music and smell the food from other people’s cookouts.
Coaching: Robert Hernandez is the current coach for the Titans. He prefers to spread the field and try to make teams play the entire field, hoping to tire them out. This plays into his team’s strength with tall players, allowing them to cover large amounts of field and outpace opponents.
