Homecoming in full swing at WCHS

2009 homecoming activities are in full swing at Warren County High School. Spirit is high among students and faculty alike. The week long activities will culminate with the crowning of the homecoming king and queen at the game Friday night.

Each day of the week of homecoming has a different theme and Monday was sports day at WCHS. Students and faculty members came to school wearing the jersey of their favorite sports team or athelete. The day was capped off with the annual powder puff contest.

The senior and freshmen girls combined to take on the junior and sophomore girls in this year's powder puff game. Senior varsity football player, Tay Erwin, served as coach for the senior/freshman team. Coaches for the junior/sophomore team included Coby Reynold (head coach), Dextrell Norris, and Tobias Latimore. Coach Marleau Blount, Coach Terry Stephens, and Coach Joey Moon served as officials for the night's game.

Every football game has to have cheerleaders, and this year's game was no different. Members of the Screaming Devil football team took to the sidelines as cheerleaders in support of both teams. Cheerleaders for the powder puff game included Dominique Menchaca, Cedric Bacon, Kalip Allen, Frank Ivey, Corneilus Pinkston, and Ed' Ricus Williams. The cheerleaders were coached by Akirra Hill, Jashanna Graves, and Briaunna Franklin.

The Junior/sophomore team jumped out to an early lead when Ty Johnson scored on a 60 yard touchdown run. Candice Warthen answered for the Senior/Freshman team with a 70 yard touchdown run of her own to tie the game at 6-6.

The game remained tied until the later part of the last period. Tianca Evans, a sophomore, scored from the one yard line to give the Junior/Sophomore team a 12-6 lead. Candice Warthen again answered the score by Evans with a 30 yard touchdown run to tie the game at 12-12.
Neither team was able to score in the closing minutes and the game ended in a tie.

Homecoming activities continued on Tuesday with the annual Tacky Day. Students and staff wore their tackiest attire to school in to show their school spirit.
