An Evening For A Queen A picture perfect day, a set- ting for an evening that would yield a queen and an excit- ing game for the Rebel football fans. The preparations for the night took a great deal of time and effort, but the final result was pre- sented on a chilly Friday night as Boone County High School proud- ly presented their 1984-85 Home- coming. The culmination of events was spectacular, but few would ever know the many hours of hard work and planning that made the event the exciting “show” it was. The day finally arrived, Friday September 28, 1984. It began about six o’clock as the 24 candi- dates and their escorts boarded their decorated convertibles for the annual Homecoming parade. The evening’s excitement soon began to grow as a fired-up Rebel team stormed onto the gridiron to match up against the tough Bull- dogs of Holmes. BCHS won the toss and elected to receive. The first quarter ended in a stalemate as neither team was able to score. The second quarter was under- way and the Rebels came out smoking. In less than two minutes the Rebels were able to break the deadlock as Junior Fortner con- nected with Carl Adkins for the first TD of the game. With Dan Maher’s extra point, the Rebels moved out to a 7-0 lead. With 6:04 left on the clock, the Rebels took control once more; Fortner again found Adkins and gave the Rebels a 13-0 lead. Halftime activities began as the Homecoming Queen candidates were called across the field. The couples were introduced to the crowd and the moment of truth was at hand. Laura Zembrodt, es- corted by Phil Yates, and spon- sored by the Spanish Club, was 16 Homecoming

Ending With A Big Upset announced to the queen’s court as fourth attendant. The third atten- dant was Kim Valentine, escorted by Scott Aylor and sponsored by the Football Team. The announc- er called Noelle Higdon as second attendant escorted by Brian Smith and Sponsored by Calculus Club. The excitement grew as Tonya Burdine was announced as the first attendant. She was es- corted by Jay Fulmer and was sponsored by Student Council. The remaining twenty candidates realized that the next name called would be the Homecoming Queen of 1984. As her name was called, Lydia Reynolds escorted by Scott Parker and sponsored by the Fu- ture Homemakers of America, stepped forward to be crowned Boone County’s 1984 homecoming queen, truly, a queen of queens. Dan Maher began the second half by booting the ball far into the endzone on the opening kick- off. The third quarter ended with the Rebels on top of the Bulldogs 14-7, but 46 seconds into the final quarter, the Bulldogs scored from Boone’s 30 yardline. The game was destined to be a gruelling overtime contest. At the end of regulation time the Bull- dogs had scratched their way back to tie the Rebels at 14. The Rebels received the ball first in the overtime period and relied on a 27 yard field goal by Maher to give the Rebels a three point edge. However, the Bulldogs re- ceived the ball and, after being held three straight downs, the Bulldogs scored and sent the Reb- els to defeat. The night was definitely a night fit for a queen and even though the Rebels lost, they proved to be gallent knights who fought to the bitter end for their Homecoming Queen. 18 Homecoming
