Nick Ruppelt Poetry Friday Night By Brian Buehner Emotions flow with great electricity, The team is focused and concentrated. With the fierce mentality of a warrior, Huddling they are ready to begin the battle. The team is focused and concentrated, Connected as one, joined for prayer. Huddling they are ready to begin the battle, Making sure they know their assignments and duties. Connected as one, joined for prayer, Breaking in unity as the buzzer sounds. Making sure they know their assignments and duties, Shielding the immense roar of the crowd. Breaking in unity as the buzzer sounds, Heart pounding, adrenaline flowing. Shielding the immense roar of the crowd, Displaying an unparalleled style of attack. Heart pounding, adrenaline flowing, Executing everything, modestly dominating. Displaying an unparalleled style of attack, Celebrating their hard work and success. Executing everything, modestly dominating, Standing strong, head held high. Celebrating their hard work and success, The game was over, the season just beginning. Standing strong, head held high, With the fierce mentality of a warrior. The game was over, the season just beginning, Emotions flow with great electricity. One Last Time By Austin Jones Today we gather for the last time, Think of when we all hit our prime, Or think of all the days we wanted to quit, Even when we got hit so hard it felt like our back split, But, for some reason we always came back out together, No matter how bad the weather, It pulls you back like you’re in captivity, But, to you it’s some great activity. You’re my brothers, And I wouldn’t want any others Because we’ve stood together throughout the worst of times. People think we’ve committed crimes Because we have hardly any losses. Now it’s our time to be the bosses, But, no matter what we will continue to work hard Even if we only need a yard. So, tonight let’s just go crazy. This isn’t the time to be lazy Because it’ll be our last time as a team, And we’ve got the best scheme Because we’re the best from head to toe, So, for one last time let’s go make one hell of a show. Heroes By Ryan Perry It’s inspiration, unlike any other, They are all different, there’s yours and mine. You look to them, as kids to their mothers We all have our own; they’re one of a kind. It is everyone, athletes and friends. We follow them; they’re idols to us all. If they fail, we let them make amends. No matter what, we never let them fall. Mine are
