Friday Night Tailgate
Before the past two games, the seniors from the Ship organized tailgates for the Bucs faithful two hours before the games. These tailgates consisted of pizza, chips, drinks, spikeball, cornhole, tossing footballs around... and just hanging out together. Sophomore Sydney Lawson concurred, "It was fun with friends before the game." These tailgates have been a big hit so far as many people have showed up and had a great time with friends before the game. Junior Johnny Lukac agreed, "It was electric and had great music."

Friday Night Football Game
The Bucs’ homecoming game was a hard-fought battle, but sadly did not end in the Bucs’ favor. Even though the Bucs were able to lead at the half 15-14, the Ligonier Valley Rams came out strong and were able to shut out the Bucs in the second half by scoring twice, making the final score 15-28. On the bright side, the Bucs still have a very good chance to make the playoffs. One more win and they’re in.
