Home, Home on the Reign Tigers' rally falls short as time expires Despite the 20-13 loss to the South Grand Prairie Warriors, Homecoming '87 was a night to remember. At the start of the game, multi- colored balloons were released as the Tigers took the field. More than 3,700 tickets were sold, making Homecoming '87 the most attended football game in the past three sea- sons. The Warriors took command of the first half leading 20-O, but an explo- sive second half brought the Tigers within seven points of South Grand Prairie. However, due to injuries, turnovers, and loss of time, the team fell short of winning the game. I thought that the crowd, enthu- siasm and support was tremendous. Everything was great, said Head Coach Harold Mayo. It Ihomecoming game activitiesl caused some distrac- tion for the players the first half, but it was a good learning experience for us overall. Although one loss occurred, two smiling winners emerged. In a pre- game ceremony, senior Ann Chelette was named band sweetheart. I felt really thrilled to represent the band as sweetheart. It was a very special honor to be selected by my friends in band, she said. This Ibeing named sweetheartl will definite- ly be one of the highlights I'll always remember about my senior year. fs-.1 tn 'Ava g' ' :E 5 During the half-time festivities, se- nior Trish Savage was named Home- coming Queen. I was so surprised. I really didn't think I would win, she said. Several people had told me when we did the election that they bet I'd win, but I didn't really give it much thought. All the girls are so special, I was just glad to be nominated with them. Other queen nominees included seniors Krissy Carlock, Angela Grant, Kristin Hoffner and Cami Wooten. Sweetheart candidates included seni- ors Claire Chism and Stacy Lee. - Monya Cargo QPF 5 fu tl : fu E 42 Above Left: The cheerleaders' homecoming sign wel- comes alumni and fans at the start of Friday's game.
