GREEN OUT U A S

1. ADRENALINE RUSH | Whether teams win or lose, head of Norsemen Tide senior Cam Schafer is happy to watch the games and be involved in the student section. The energy that the student section brings is contagious and helps the teams to play with more energy, according to Schafer. “I love watching how neither team gives up no matter what, and how they strive off the energy and adrenaline from a big game,” Schafer said.

2. SHOWING PRIDE | Because she has multiple friends on the girls basketball team, sophomore Addie Wakefield shows all her support during games. She loves the intensity of the game, and admires the girls’ determination. “I love how it is always a very competitive game,” Wakefield said. “It is really fun to be able to watch all my friends out there working together.”

3. UNITED WE STAND | The student section is always full of excitement, according to senior Jordan Arseneau. The energetic atmosphere and student engagement are two things Arseneau finds positive about the student section. “The energy from high-stakes games is amazing,” Arseneau said. “Everyone is on their feet, trying to support their home team to the best of their ability to motivate them and help them succeed.”

4. IT'S A PARTY IN THE USA | When freshman Eva Borowski is not playing basketball herself, she loves watching the boys basketball team compete. Borowski enjoys the fast pace of the game and also appreciates the social aspect of going to games. “You get to hang out with your friends while dressing up to a different theme each game and it's a great way to get involved and support the teams,” Borowski said.

5. GOING BANANAS FOR BASKETBALL | Showing up at games in the theme is not unusual for junior Mia Tedesco, who tries to go to almost every basketball game and loves being part of the student section. “The [student section] really allows us to come together as a community and school and we bring the competitiveness, yet the sportsmanship with these important games,” Tedesco said.

6. WELCOME TO THE LUAU | One of the many responsibilities senior Cam Schafer has in the student section is sustaining a positive and spirited environment. Schafer leads the student section by creating an energetic atmosphere with the assistance of other students. “We use a lot of chants to rattle the opposing team's offense and get them out of their rhythm,” Schafer said.
