The annual powderpuff football game commenced Nov. 3 with the senior girls winning against the underclassmen and raising funds for the annual Safe and Sober graduation party.
The football game ended in win for the seniors coached by Taran Smith and Justin Chase. Colton Richardson, coach of the underclassmen, was metaphorically fired from the coaching cast, as he apparently allowed no score for the juniors and sophomores through the first half of the game.
“After I was fired, the team scored two touchdowns within five minutes, so it’s probably best if I just sit down,” Richardson said at the end of the first half.
Riley Way, coach of the upperclassmen, ran a strong offense that managed to score four touchdowns to win the game 28-21. The fun competition proved how well teammates can get along if they come together. Cami Sledge, safety for the underclassmen, said she played to find the adrenaline rush and the fun associated with the game.
“My favorite part of the game was the energy that was given by the players and the coaches, especially by the fans,” Sledge said. The powderpuff football game will continue to raise money for years to come.
