With the fair animals sold, fall sports season well under way, and vacations taken it was time for the Knights to come home to \u201cThe Castle\u201d. The freshmen stumbled in making sure to get lost. The sophomores try to get the motivation they need to start to tackle the ever famous OGT. The juniors have their heads filled with wonderful and elegant prom ideas. And of course the seniors\u2019 \u2018Senioritis\u2019 is already kicking in. But none-the-less, students are very eager to get started. With seven new staff members, teachers and students are excited to get the school year underway.<\/p>\n

The Crestview Music Department is busy. Musical auditions were held for this year\u2019s rendition of Frog and Toad<\/em>. Knight Vision has its show down and is cleaning for its first competition in Ada. The Marching Knights opened up their competition season at the Troy invitational. \u201cI am looking forward to watching the seniors develop their roles on stage in this show and taking that ability and impacting the underclassman.\u00a0 This group of seniors has a lot of diversity in their personalities and abilities and A Year with Frog and Toa<\/em>d is a musical that is very different from previous musicals.\u00a0 The challenge, the work and the end result will be worth every minute of rehearsal rime for everyone involved in some aspect of this show\u201d, said director Mrs. Hancock.<\/p>\n

Red, white and blue colors fill Convoy as the community roots on the Knights whether it is volleyball, soccer, cross country, golf or football. The cross country team is off and running (no pun intended) after they landed a solid 16th\u00a0placing at Troy. Golf wrapped up a strong NWC finish in the Northwest Conference match. The volleyballers are in contention for NWC champs with only one loss in the league to the T-Birds. The football team is battered and bruised but 3-2 after dropping a tough one to Bluffton but preparing for the homecoming game against Jefferson. \u201cWith so many crucial injuries taking place in our senior leaders, there is no doubt that the younger kids need to step up and make plays. I have confidence in my teammates that they will be able to mature and get the job done\u201d, Said senior Jake Harmon. The soccer team is 2-5-1 and preparing for Kick 4 The Cure which will take place Sept. 29. Bringing a canned food item to the game will get spectators two dollars off admission.<\/p>\n

The homecoming festivities are planned with the annual PowderPuff game on the 27th\u00a0with the homecoming parade right before it. On the 28th,\u00a0the 2013 queen candidates (MeKale Clifton, Brittany Helt, and MacKenzie Ray) will take the field before the Knights-JeffCat game. And on the 29th\u00a0the packed weekend is wrapped up with the Kick 4 The Cure soccer game and high school dance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
