Sleepy Thompson is one of the most anticipated sports event at SSSAS. As the IAC seasons winds down, the tournament spirit rises! The SCA hosted a week of spirit including fun days such as school colors and a western theme. However, that was just a small taste of the spirit to come those nights. As a tradition, the first night is always a blackout (we all dress in black) at 7 pm. Our student section completely rocked the house, from face paint to tutus and body paint! All of our spirit contributed to help our boys pull out a win on the first night of Sleepy! As a senior, it was extremely sentimental and exciting to have won the first night, and to also throw toilet paper for the last time! The second night we came out even stronger, although we lost, our fans were crazy! We decided on a USA theme and we cheered our hearts out; probably one of the most memorable nights of Sleepy that I remember. Our team placed fourth in the overall tournament, as the students were decked out in bright and shiny neon. Overall, this year has been filled with great spirit and we have truly come together as a school to support each other. I could honestly not imagine any better way to spend my weekend.
