Cougar Nation

The jungle. The greatest student section I've ever seen or been a part of. They have for sure been the "12th man" and have helped us be so successful. This Friday night we need them.

This week at school is going to be a great one. Championship week and everyone is buying into it. The school is decorated with green and gold everywhere! The cheerleaders have done great all year, but this week they went above and beyond. Green and gold streamers, the football teams' names on the wall, beat Dowling everywhere! How could that not get you excited for Friday? Our principal Jkline has hyped us up all year, but this week he is really bringing the spirit, and I love all of it! He declared a spirit week for the whole week. He has also ordered pep buses for the game, has made half-days for events, orders for a sendoff before every event on game day. I've never met a principal so involved and with more spirit than good ol' Jkline!

The student body has also taken it to a whole different level. The student sections for all of the games this year were incredible! I've never played in and felt a more electric atmosphere at a high school game than I have this year. It has helped us win too! When we go into a game and know the support we are going to get, it's so rewarding. The other team also hates it. From the other perspective, there isn't a worse feeling than walking into a game and seeing the other team's student section double or triple theirs. This Friday night we need everyone! The stands need to be rocking! This is our first time to the title game and we are hoping to bring it home to CR.

On social media I love seeing all of the support and spirit we have for our team too. Everyone at school has bought into the family idea, and that's made us so much stronger. The polls are great on twitter because we are able to make student wide decisions and get more hype for the game.

Cougar Nation has never been stronger, and this week we is going to be something truly special. I can't wait to see all of the school spirit and support this week! You guys come on Friday and we won't let you down!
