Senior Night

Senior Night…probably one of the most emotional nights for all the sport teams. It is the night in which all the senior members of the team get recognized for their contributions to the team throughout their high school career. It is a great way to see how much the seniors contribute not only to their sport, but especially to their teammates and team atmosphere. Today will be the girl’s basketball team and cheer team’s Senior Night. Personally, I know I will get emotional. Even though I was only part of the cheer team for two years, I feel a strong connection to the girls and Braxton. This season has been full of amazing moments for all of us. Whether it was performing a dance routine correctly or hitting some more advanced stunts, we’ve all had great moments together. I’ve had some rough moments throughout the season, but no matter what I don’t regret a single thing. Tonight will be the last time the seniors get to cheer in our gym. I remember how nervous I was the first time I walked into that gym with my uniform on. At times I felt out of place, but as the season progressed it was better and better. This season has been marvelous and I am so thankful for being part of this team. Although I am not the most experienced cheerleader, I love what I do. The rush of hitting a lib or a basket is something that nothing will ever be able to replace. For me Senior Night comes along with the emotions of being near the end of Senior Year. Everyday is one step closer to graduating and quite frankly it’s scary, yet super exciting. But for now it’s time to enjoy the moments I have left with my team.
