Tioga High School: Tioga's 2013 Homecoming is A HUGE SUCCESS!!

by Audrey Staples and Leanna Crowe

The Tioga Lady Bulldogs kicked off the evening by playing the Lindsey Knights. The first set was full of anxiety, the final score being 29-27. The girls finished up the second set 25-16 for the first win of the night. Our Tioga Bulldogs answered to the girls win by playing a tough game; it was an exciting game. Our boys really pulled ahead in the second half, winning the game 42-20. The halftime show was a success by both the band and cheerleaders. The band led us in our school song, our fight song, and "Jaws," and for the first time in Tioga history, they marched onto the field to perform. The cheerleaders did a great job with their cheer, dance, and stunt.

All week long our school was overflowing with spirit. Monday came and went, but not without loads of characters! Tuesday we were just giddy with our western wear. Wednesday much camo was seen and everybody was "happy, happy, happy." Thursday was filled with more nerds than you could count; the school spirit was abundant. Friday, many students sported their green and white to show their support. The hallways jingled and rang with spirit and mums.

The day then brought us the presentation of our homecoming court. The 9th grade representatives were Audrey Staples and Dillon Bryant. The 10th grade court members were Samantha Holcomb, Alia Quintero, Wills Bollin, and Cade Gibson. The 2013 Homecoming Prince and Princess were Micah Villa and Verenise Aguirre. Congratulations to everyone!

After the game, Tioga High School had a Homecoming Dance to finish up the celebration. It was a great way to end an awesome week!
