CRESCENT CROSS COUNTRY opened their season this evening at the Pre-Region Meet tonight. I took the liberty to borrow this pic posted by a parent to the Cross Country Facebook page.
THIS PIC.
It sums up so effectively why I love the sport. In a sport built so much around individual effort and pushing oneself beyond what they thought were their limits……there is ALSO fostered such a unique and special spirit of support and encouragement for teammates. And sometimes even opponents. All sports have it to a degree, but cross country just hits different like this in some ways to me. Every time I am able to make it to a meet, I see this from our kids. And it’s AWESOME. They encourage, they console, and they celebrate with each other. They don’t just celebrate with the first one across the line, but they celebrate with that kid who finished further back but achieved their personal best through practice and persistence. There is no one more competitive than me, but those aspects make up much of the true essence of sport. If you haven’t made a cross country meet before, I encourage you to get to one.
COME OUT AND SUPPORT ALL OUR YOUNG PEOPLE IN ATHLETICS AND ALL OUR ACTIVITIES.
We have well over 200 Tigers participating in athletics this fall, in addition to many more who are involved in other activities like Band, FFA, and numerous other things on our campuses.
THAT is what it’s all about at the end of the day. TIGER PROUD!

Take a moment…..
Lots of AWESOME things about Friday Night Lights last week, but this is DEFINITELY at the top. Following the game, members of the Tiger Band were under their end of the bleachers cleaning up their water bottles and other things from the game.
That’s CULTURE and OWNERSHIP.
That’s TIGER PRIDE!
Too often in today’s world, we see people take things for granted and not contribute to or appreciate the things they use, not clean up, and leave facilities that they use but are not their own WORSE than they found them.
Not our Tiger Band on Friday!
LOVE THIS. GO TIGERS!
GREAT student section (our biggest crowd in a long time), GREAT action from our Tiger Band and Tiger Cheer, a GREAT group of student trainers, and an exciting game and great effort from our Tigers on the field! Cannot wait to get back out and have it be even BETTER at Dixie this Friday night! THANKS to Will Poteat Photography for most of these AWESOME pics!
