Awesome win Friday night for the WB Football Program! But even more awesome was not only crowd of support from the community, but the faculty and staff that were in attendance! Had to be around 75 at least! Mr. Dorfberger in the press box did a great job as always announcing all the faculty and staff he saw and the community loved it!

The cheerleaders did a great job keeping the crowd pumped up under Coach Stein!

We’re going to keep making it a safe, exciting, spirit fun-filled event for everyone.

Thank you for supporting Coach Potts, Coach Gamboa, Coach Moran, Coach Alexis, Coach Yeager, Coach Tuzi, and the whole football team for an amazing great time!
