County High Schools Celebrate Homecoming Week
Monday, September 19, 2022, started the weeklong homecoming festivities at Bolivar Central High School (BCHS) and Middleton High School (MHS). Celebrations included spirit week on both campuses with green and white everywhere in Bolivar and orange and black all over in Middleton. Despite the occasional friendly rivalry, one thing both schools had in common was their Tiger Pride.
Spirit week gave the students at BCHS and MHS an opportunity to show their spirit and creativity with different themed days of attire. See BCHS themes and see MHS themes.
Homecoming courts were announced and queens were crowned with senior Becca Bryant winning BCHS Homecoming Queen.
Senior Tonasia Wilbanks was crowned MHS Homecoming Queen.
Coach Foy Norwood was the grand marshal. Norwood taught history, and coached Middleton football for 36 years between the middle school and high school. He is winningest football coach in Middleton history.
BCHS (see BCHS parade video) and MHS kicked off homecoming day with parades and pep rallies.
BCHS was ready to take on the Craigmont High School Chiefs.
But fell short of winning, losing with a final score of 26 – 30.
MHS was pumped and ready to take on the Myrtle High School Hawks.
But also lost with a score of 12 – 14. Despite the football loses, Tiger Pride lives strong throughout Hardeman County. Go Tigers!
