Homecoming

Last week was the start of homecoming as our Raiders football team took on the Wes-Del Warriors. Our week started off with Pajama day and during the last half hour of school a pep session was held by the cheerleaders. As students poured into the gymnasium, the band played the school song and other game day tunes. Senior and Carnes Crazy Lucas Miller introduced members of the members of the girl’s golf, boys and girls cross country, and finally the football team. Seniors and captains from each team were recognized when their team had the floor. Tuesday’s theme was tie day as we were to “tie up the warriors.” Wednesday was war paint and class color day with activities night at starting at 5 pm. The activities held were the chug contest, wheel barrel race, dodge ball, and, the powder-puff football game which was, unfortunately cancelled for that night. The juniors came in last place with 11 points, the freshman came in third with…, the seniors and sophomores had an extremely competitive night with each scoring 29 and 30 points respectively. The 7th wore white, the 8th were gray, freshman wore red, sophomores wore white, juniors wore red, and the seniors wore black. Thursday was the theme of the week, wild, wild raiders as students were encouraged to dress in cowboy or girl outfits in preparation for our showdown with the warriors. Friday was game day and that meant spirit day. Raider fans and students wore the S.W. gear with pride down the hallways and to the game to watch our boys beat the Wes-Del Warriors 60-0! Way to go Raiders!
