EHS vs UHS: Meet Again
   All day at school yesterday I heard murmurs of, "Are you going to the basketball game tonight? It's going to be awesome!" All of my classmates were referring to the EHS vs UHS girls and boys basketball game at seven  o'clock Friday night. I haven't gone to a basketball game all this season of boys and girls. I decided to give myself a break for once this weekend and go to the game! I was super excited to go because it was also was a camouflage themed game, senior night, and something called a 'Silent Night' game. A 'Silent Night' game is where all the fans make a lot of noise while the teams are warming up but once the clock starts for the game, but make no noise until their team scores ten points. Also the cheerleaders cheered but without sound. The fans only did 'Silent Night' for the boys game though.

   I got to EHS boys gym at around six fourty five with my two friends Megan E. and Natalie R. When we all walked into the gym the girls were playing and the fans section was pretty packed already with camouflage! It was freezing outside but super hot in the fan section! The girls game was such a great game. It was very intense and filled with great shots for both teams. Fans had giant head posters of two of the Varsity girls playing, it was so funny! The final score of the girls game was 43-42! EHS GIRLS WON! Every fan that was crammed into our tiny section stormed the court screaming, "EHS! EHS! EHS! EHS!" Then all simultaneously stormed the fan section to get their spots back for the main event, the boys game. 

   Sweating and filled with excitement from the girl's win we all started yelling for our beginning of the 'Silent Night' game while the boys were warming up. The boys finished warming up, set up their starting line up for the game and head out for tip-off. The clock started and the seniors started 'shh-ing' all the fans. It was really exciting but very hard for me to be quiet because as we all know...I love talking. A lot. It didn't take very long for our boys to score ten points and we went WILD!! It was so fun that we got to ten points and we could talk again! The boys game was so super intense and EHS would be down and then ahead and then down and head! It was even more intense than the girls game. The final score of the boys game was 45-41. EHS BEAT  UHS AGAIN! The whole fan section ran out onto the court screaming even harder and even louder "EHS! U-HIGH U-CRIGH!" I had so much fun and I am so proud to be a knight!
