High vs North

Last night was the annual "Crosstown Clash" between Norman High School (the original) and Norman North High School (11 years old). In the last 11 meetings, Norman beat North the first 9 times. Last year was the first time that North beat us. We got a new coach this summer (after 35 years) and last night North beat us 50 something to 0 (that's right, zero). It was sad, but expected. The game is so big (how big is it, Cindy?) It is so big that around 15,000 people attend and we are fortunate that the University of Oklahoma lets us play that special game on the "hallowed" field at the university. Here's a picture of Kaitlyn on the sideline.


Here's one of their routines. The seniors get to be on the front row (finally) of the chant line.

Here is the halftime routine. Both schools' bands get on the field and face one way and the cheer/pom squads do a routine and then face the other way and the other school's cheer/pom squad do a routine. Kaitlyn is the blonde that runs up to the front at the beginning. I tried to keep the camera on her but lost her when they are forming the letters to NHS with their poms.
