The cheerleaders successfully perform a trick.

Last Thursday, Oct. 24 the annual Thompson Turf War was hosted by FCCLA. The game was slow at first with juniors running the ball. Tensions began to rise as junior player Bella Dorey got closer to the endline. Seniors tried their hardest and defended well but overall could not catch up to the juniors main runners: Bella Dorey, Ella Cate Brown, and Natalie Samante. During halftime, junior cheerleaders ramped up spirits as the juniors took the lead. The game ended with juniors defeating seniors, or so everyone thought. The scoreboard changed so the seniors won, but after a few moments the score went back to 28-14. Juniors had defeated seniors.

Hannah Ivins, Reporter
Sophomore Hannah Ivins is a first-year Prowler reporter who couldn’t be more excited to be bringing you the best news you could find in the RCHS halls. This year her goals include; learning more about interviewing, writing the most eye-catching articles, and being the best reporter you’ve seen so far. In Ivins’s freetime she enjoys talking with friends, watching The Office, and vacuuming the lawn. Ivins is active in sports such as the girl’s cross country and lacrosse teams. She’s planning on joining more clubs this year…hopefully. Hannah first found interest in journalism class after she was inspired by the best news reporter out there; Hallie Darmante. Maybe someday Ivins can be as good as her, but for now she has a lot to learn.
