Ears underwent the bombardment of energetic soundwaves, as excitement rippled through the gym, and con- fetti-showered students gave it all they had. The chant, Get Fired Up, literally described the condition of the spirited students in the gym, and this hot enthusiasm followed the students to the game that night.
