Football Friday Night Lights

by Arielle Ismael

October 10th was a night to not only shine light on the field but also to honor our graduating athletes, the Class of 2026. Festivities such as food, brightly painted shirts, face paint, and interactive games set up by the cheerleaders kept Friday Night Lights fun! The air was filled with the smell of fresh food being prepared at the food booth for awaiting customers. The sidelines were filled with cheerleaders providing uplifting support and entertainment for the athletes, followed by the crowd enhancing the atmosphere with positive chants supporting the Falcons! The step team strutted and showed out for the Falcons, keeping everyone hyped, followed by the marching band playing amazing notes for the crowd. Overall, the halftime performances kept the crowd engaged. Though we lost, the bleachers were filled with South spirit and beautifully decorated neon attire that colored the dark night sky.
