Old familiar faces of ex-graduates could be seen roaming throughout the halls all day long. Beta Club delivered their traditional Homecoming roses. Finally the bell for the pep rally released many anxious students. Spirit and morale was built up with every chant and cheer. Students were urged to arrive at Williams Stadium to view the Homecoming festivities during the pre-game. Due to a new district rule, all schools were required to hold Homecoming ceremonies before the game. The stands were quiet as the new queen, Michelle Estrello was announced, but yelled wildly as she was driven around the track by the Head Bell Guard, Brady Phipps. The Owl football team played a long tough game against the Greenville Lions, but was not able to win. They lost 20-17. Never the less, students were excited as the parking lot emptied quickly and many went on to attend the senior sponsored victory dance. All graduates were invited to attend the event. By the end of the night everyone seemed to have forgotten the defeat from only a few previous hours. As the last few people left, several students stayed to clean the cafeteria so that the Student Council could decorate for the Coronation Ball which was held the following night.
