Competition heats up at Norwich High School
NORWICH – As Norwich High School’s Spirit Week nears its end, all eyes are on the Pride Wall, where the daily scores of the weeks events are tallied.
As of Thursday, Purple was in the lead by a score of 413 to White’s 347. But with two big competitions left to go, it’s still anyone’s ball game.
It’s not just students who are getting into the competitive spirit. The school’s faculty and staff will join in this afternoon to champion their teams during the Pep Rally.
Dean of Students Scott Ryan, who will be representing the White team in all four of the afternoon’s events, refused to predict who would prevail. An alignment of the stars might be necessary for his team to pull it off, he said. “The Purple team presents a pretty hefty challenge.”
Social Studies Teacher Rich Turnbull, a die-hard Purple supporter, had no such qualms about making his prediction. “The Purple team is going to win, that’s all I’m going to say,” he said, as he trash-talked his White opponents yesterday.
Dr. Bruce Race, who along with Ryan will represent the underdogs, obviously disagreed. “You’re going down,” he told Turnbull. They will settle the battle on the dodge ball court.
While the results of the Pep Rally could very well be a turning point in the competition, it will be Saturday’s Spirit Night which determines the ultimate victors. At the end of the night, the team which has accumulated the most points throughout the week will be crowned champion. Ryan anticipates a huge turnout for the 6 p.m. event, between students and community members.
So, will it be the seniors and freshman of the Purple team who will come out on top? Or will the White team, comprised of the school’s sophomores and juniors, come from behind to defeat their rivals? We’ll have to wait and see.
