Senior Night(:

This Friday, is the biggest football game of the year. Its senior night, and it’s the last game of the season. We have to win this game because if we win, we can go to playoffs. We went to playoffs in 2008, but I wasn’t at the high school yet so it wasn’t really that important to me. Now that im a sophomore, and a high school cheerleader, its really important that we go. I love football and I know that everyone that plays, or goes to the games, loves football too. We really want to see our boys go to the playoffs this year. If we go, we get to take turner buses and head up to an awesome school to play. This week, the team we are playing, has lost too many games, and they have lost their chances to go to the playoffs. This could either be good or bad. They could go easy on us and let us win, or they could go really hard, and make us lose. The boys have been practicing really hard this past week, and they are all really confident that we will win, or play good at least. They have been playing really good lately, and that has boosted their confidence a ton. I really hope we play good enough to beat Rantoul and go on to the playoffs.

                Not only is this game our last chance to go to the playoffs, it is our last home game, which means that it is Senior Night! Senior night is so much fun and it is really emotional. Its so much fun because, we all are pumped up to win the game and the cheerleaders and band mess around and try to get the crowd pumped up. The football boys are really rowdy, and they know they have to win this one last home game. They get so fired up and its really cool to see how much the football boys actually love football and we get to see how much they actually care that this is their last home game they will play while in high school. Every year, the cheerleaders put up our senior mounts. A senior mount is when we stunt, and the seniors are the flyers. This year, we are building a pyramid. Its going to be so cool! Everyone will love it. The band has learned how to play some new songs, and that will get the pack cheering and dancing. It will be awesome. Senior Night is also really emotional for everyone, not just the seniors. They announce the seniors at the football game, and people start to cry. We have all grown up with the seniors and this is the last time they will cheer at a football game, or play football. It’s really emotional. Everyone gets each other presents, and some teams even have senior moments. That is a time where the seniors can sit down with everyone else and tell stories about the good times they have had in high school. The tears really come flowing for that one.
