Plymouth, Quartzsite 928-927-4644 Space donated by Desert Messenger From September 17th to the 20th, Salome High School students had their homecoming week. Monday was "Meme Day." It was pretty cool to see the ideas some of the students came up with. During lunch, there was a game held outside involving Robert Lard's PT Cruiser. Every grade had to see how many stu- dents from their class they could fi t in the vehicle. The seniors won the game by fi tting 22 students into the car in un- der a minute. "Time Travel" Tuesday was the theme the next day. Many of the students dressed as if they were from many different time periods, some even from the future. Tuesday was also the freshmen's helping hands fundraiser. This is an activity where upperclassman, who have participated in the past, can pay to have a freshman, who volunteered to participate, follow all of their crazy instructions for the next day. Won- drous Wednesday was a day to dress up as your favorite pop culture char- acter. Thursday was "Think Like a Frog" day. That was the day the most people dressed up. During fi rst hour they had an assembly in the gym were a few of the colleges came to talk and inspire the students. With everyone dressed in green and white, school spirit was high going into homecom- ing Friday. On Friday the 21st, the Salome Frogs won their homecoming foot- ball game against San Pasqual 58-0. When asked about playing in his last homecoming game, senior Jeffrey Scott said, "It was a very weird feel- ing and I don't know how to describe it, it's cool, I'm going to miss it." At halftime, the royalty was brought onto the fi eld. The Freshman atten- dants were Nick Dautel and Serenity Gibney. The Sophomore attendants were Vidal Bollas and Tori Milts. The Junior attendants were Joel Gonzalez and Lauren Watlington. The Senior attendants were Cobey Hager, Jeffrey Scott, Ashley Garza, and Gabriella Palma. During this halftime event, Cobey and Gabriella were announced as homecoming king and queen. After the game was the traditional homecom- ing dance. A fun time was had by all whether they were playing Uno, show- ing off their dance moves, or eating and spending time with their friends. With their win, on home- coming Friday, the Salome Frogs became 1st in their region for the 1A West division. Coach McCar- ty said, "The Salome Frogs worked really hard after their loss to Wil- liams High School." From this big win, the Salome Frogs really get the taste of victory. When asked about how their success changes their ap- proach to future games, Coach Mc- Carty said, "Each game's a chance to improve on something else and we watch a lot of fi lm, we take what we learn from them and turn it into drills on the fi eld. It's just really about the teamwork and working hard to get better." Switching over to the volleyball season's progress, the Salome Lady Frogs continue to work hard and practice vigorously. Coach Avila says, "I feel the season is going well. We have faced some more challeng- ing teams during the fi rst half of the season, but our team has not given up." The players celebrated their fi rst win against Mohave ALC on September 7th at home. The two teams played an intense and nail- biting game, but in the end, the frogs secured the win in a four-set match. The Lady Frogs also had an- other win against Mingus Mountain Academy, on Tue, during home- coming week. When asked about her goals for the rest of the season, Coach Avila said, "We are #6 in our region; I would like to see us in the top three or four and make it to the regional tournament. We have a very talented team this year; our seniors are playing great and we also have some younger talent re- ally stepping up. I am excited to see how the second half of our season goes and hope we win the rest of our region games." In other news, Salome students from the yearbook staff took a trip to Deer Valley High School in Phoenix. At the workshop, the staff members met a cover artist who helped them design the cover for this year's yearbook. The staff has chosen for this years theme, "Be Bold." With that in mind, the cover uses many bright colors, a bold change from past yearbooks. As a bonus to the workshop, there were many fun activities. For example, they had multiple cups fi lled with water and participants had to blow a ping pong ball into the other cups that were fi lled with water. The staff members were able to learn a lot about designing to a theme and even got to go to Sam's Club for pizza and frozen yogurt afterward.
