Halftime starts and the varsity cheerleaders perform their routine on Feb. 17. The flyers get lifted up and grabbed onto each other's arms for support and waved to the audience.
The orange out game against Liberty on Feb. 17 had a deeper meaning than just “a normal” basketball “game”. This game was to help a student at Francis Howell Central battling cancer and to show support to his family. Teammates, staff, students, and parents wore the orange shirts to show they are a part of this hard time with them. Kylie Wright explains how the way this game was more than just a game but a community coming together for a good cause.
“It showed that we cared about leukemia and it provided funds to a good cause, like when we went up with the buckets collecting donations,” Wright said.
The next girls varsity basketball game is on Friday Feb. 27, at 5:30 at Francis Howell North.
