Instead of the classic homecoming court dodgeball, student senate had the idea of a soccer game in the bubble balls. Senior Adam Nelson took advantage of this opportunity and slammed into any teacher on the opposing team.
Much of the hype of homecoming week took place Friday night during the halftime ceremony of the football game. Students awaited all week eagerly to find out who their 2017 king and queen would be. Jack Nicholson, a four-year veteran on the court was elected alongside the queen Julia Drabczyk who has been apart of the homecoming court since her sophomore year of high school. “I was extremely surprised and shocked,” Nicholson said. “I was so humbled by other people’s actions.”
