As I spectated the senior night volleyball game Thursday evening, I noticed a significant decrease in the intensity of our student section that is titled “The Bullpen”. We celebrated senior night by doing the timeless theme of America night. Students put on their best redneck or patriotic attire they own and came to the gym to hoot and holler for their ‘Dors. I arrived at the match near game time and was able to snag a front row seat in the Bullpen. I understand that people have other things going on and that our volleyball team isn’t the cream of the crop, but our enrollment is over 600 people and we should be running the parents off of the bleachers.
Road football games draw a slim crowd as well. The football team is 2-6, but who doesn’t enjoy football Friday night and being with friends? As winter sports season approaches, we need to push one another to improve our attendance at basketball, swimming, wrestling, and all the other sports.
Last winter, the boys basketball team only managed 6 wins, yet I have fond memories of the Bullpen being involved as if we were the best team in the state. Our boys swim team is looking very promising this year and we should all pack the pool and cheer on the Boone boys. Let’s not discount our wrestling team. Although they lost a few seniors, they should be able to put on a show on the mats and we need to be there shouting and being supportive.
Let’s increase attendance at Boone sporting events and make people remember why we are called the Bullpen.
