Homecoming week is always a whirlwind of excitement for stu-dents and the faculty at MCHS. From dressing up in the day’s particular attire, decorating floats for the parade, and the anticipation of crowning the Homecoming Queen, this week is always one we look forward to. This year’s homecoming week was one for the books. Homecoming is a festive week where students and faculty can “let down their hair” and have a little fun at MCHS. The theme for Home-coming was “Game On.” Dress up days included Mossy Monday, Team Tuesday, Warm-up Wednesday, Throw Back Thursday, and Spirit Day Friday. Students and Faculty had a lot of fun dressing up each day to show their Indian Spirit. The Homecoming parade was one of the best in memory. Ac-cording to Student Council Advisor Amanda Reffitt, the participation was the largest during her tenure. The junior class won the “best float” award. The float represented the “Game On” theme with a rendition of Monopoly. This year the Student Council decided to add a new twist to the festivities. Students nominated teachers to represent the faculty as Homecoming Queen. The following teachers were nominated: Sarah Elam, Charlotte Jones, Lori Looney, Heather Manning, Krista Reeves, and Amanda Reffitt. The competition between teach-ers got quite heated at times. Mrs. Manning wore a “vote for Manning” shirt to school on Election Day and Ms. Jones wore a crown to show her confidence in winning the title. The Queen was announced at the pep rally on Friday, so not to over shad-

ow the “real” queen who would be crowned at half-time of the football game. Ms. Jones won the title! The pep rally was a huge success. The seniors won the spirit stick competition, fall sports teams were recognized, the flash mob stole the show, and Coach Gooch ended with a motivational speech that had the entire student body ready for the big game. During half-time of the big game, the Homecoming Queen was crowned along with her court. The following girls were voted to rep-resent their class: Riley Stafford (9th), Caitlin Conyers (10th), Olivia Colliver (11th), and Sarah Walters (12th). Megan Wells was crowned the 2012 Homecoming Queen. At the end of a fun-filled week celebrating homecoming, the Indian football team played a tough oppo-nent coming out on top with a 30-6 victory. After the game, students enjoyed “getting their groove on” at the homecoming dance sponsored by the MCHS Cheerleaders. All in all, homecoming week was a blast. It is definitely one of the major highlights of the school year.

Being elected Homecoming Queen by her peers was an incredible mo-ment for Megan Wells; however, winning the crown was not the only thing that made this night unforget-table for her. MCHS has a homecoming tradi-tion that allows the senior candi-dates to be escorted by their father. This may not seem like a big deal to most, but it was huge for Megan Wells. Her father is on active duty in the Army and stationed in Fort Campbell, KY. It isn’t easy for Megan’s dad to take leave whenever he wants. Megan was afraid he wouldn’t be able to make it at all. Fortunately, he not only got to walk her across the football field in front of a huge crowd, but he also got to see his baby girl crowned as queen. According to Megan, having a parent in the military is tough, but

having him with her on this night makes all the sacrifices worthwhile. She said that it made the whole night seem flawless and nothing less than perfect for her. It meant the world to her that he could take time away from his prestigious career to be with her for this special moment. Megan recalls the words her dad spoke before taking the field with

his daughter on his arm, “if you win, praise Him. If you lose, praise Him.” Unlike so many other moments that Megan has experi-enced throughout her life, this time she didn’t have to call her father to fill him in on the big moment of winning the crown. He was actually there to witness this incred-ible moment in his daughter’s life first hand. “The feelings that I had were

indescribable and it was absolutely a moment that will last a lifetime,” said Megan.

Little did Josh Powell know that when he bought his first gun at the age of 5 at October Court Day, he would become the Superintendent of Montgomery County Schools one day. Josh Powell is a leader with integrity and the ability to bring Montgomery County Schools to the educational promised land. Inspired by one teacher to be-come an educator, Powell has taught every subject offered in grades 6-12. He started his teaching career in Trimble County where he spent 5 years. After leaving Trimble, he moved onto Cloverport Independent where he was promoted to super-intendent after only one year of service. While at Cloverport, Powell em-powered the teachers and students enabling them to raise test scores which led to the highest test score increase in the state of Kentucky. After the success at Cloverport, Powell moved on to Union County. Most don’t believe lightening strikes in the same place twice, but

Griffin Colleswhen you are talking about Josh Powell that is exactly what hap-pened. Powell was able to move Union County to the educational elite by helping them gain the sec-ond largest leap in test scores in the state. Josh Powell is excited for the op-portunity to come to a district with the potential of Montgomery County. He believes that he can take our schools out of the bottom 24% in the state and move us into the top ten. His method to achieve academic excellence is simple. “Empower the best and bright-est,” said Powell. Josh Powell has been able to motivate faculty and students to move their school districts from the bottom to the top in the past and doesn’t see any reason why the same cannot happen in Montgomery County. Faculty and students are placing their faith in Powell to help move our school district to the top. Con-sidering his past record, success looks promising.

Over the past few years, MCHS has seen a larger turnover in faculty members than in previous years. Administration has hired 28 new teachers in the last two years. Ac-cording to Principal Todd Wilson, the rate has grown mostly because of teacher retirement, but we have had a few teachers move on to work in other districts. Even though MCHS lost a trem-ondous group of employees over the past two years, it was able to gain some incredible and enthusias-tic new teachers to help move this school forward.

For the first time since 1993 the boys golf team advanced to the state tournament. On a cool and rainy Monday the boys’ golf team set out to compete in the regional tournament at Eagle Trace in Morehead. With two rain delays and almost 10 hours at the golf course, region came to an end. The top two teams from each region advance to state. Ashland came into the club house with a 314 and 1st place. Montgomery shot a 324 which was good enough for second. It was a horrible day for golf and the scores where higher then normal. Connor Danis (sophomore) shot an even par 72 and took home the first place medal. Zack Smith (sophomore) shot 83; Aaron Vice (sophomore) shot 85, Matt Razor (senior) shot 84, and Logan Murphy (senior) shot 90. All of the players on the team were extremely pleased to advance to the state tourney. The course for the state tourna-

Expecting only the best for her team, Coach Wallace shows the Vol-leyball girls respect, for themselves and the game. “They have improved a lot since last year. They have won 14 of 26 regular season games, I am very happy with this team,” states Coach Wallace. The team fought hard to finish second in the district moving on to region play, where they lost in the first round to Newport Central Catholic. The team consists of Angel Dow-da, Brittany Norris, Karlee Willough-by, Shana Long, DeLaney Pritchard, Jamie Ginter, Shakeesha Anderson, Michelle Toy, Caroline Leiva, Madison Gooch, Carly Barker, Mia MacDonald, Bella Kammer, and Nikki Tyra. All the players are special ingredients to conjuring up a great team. Volleyball players say, “We’re more like a family, than a team.” Everyone has to interact and accom-plish just as much as the other. Coach Wallace works the team hard, so they can accomplish suc-cess on and off the court. Three playsers show the suc-cess they have achieved by signing to play volleyball in college. Brit-tany Norris, DeLaney Pritchard, and Jamie Ginter will be flying high for the Eagles of Alice Lloyd in the fall of 2012.

ment at the Bowling Green Country Club is one of the nicest courses in the state. It was a rough day for all MCHS players except for Zack Smith and Aaron Vice. Aaron shot a respect-able 84 while Zack shot an 80 which was just good enough to advance him to the second day. Zack had a rough second day, but still finished 67 in the state. He is looking for-ward to trying to make it back next year. The season for the Indians was impressive. With 5 top ten finishes in 7 tournaments including: an 8th place finish in the Flyer Classic, 3rd place finish in the Bath County Invitational, 1st place at the Gree-nup County Invitational, 2nd in the Powell County invitation, and 6th in the Montgomery County Invitational. With the loss of two seniors, next season still looks bright with the youth on the team. The boys golf had a really strong year and hopes to continue there momentum for seasons to come.

No home meets, little coverage, few spectators, and a miniscule bud-get are just some of the obstacles faced by the MCHS Cross Country Team. The other challenges come on the course, where runners fight to beat their opponents as well as their best time recorded. The Cross Country team has competed in 11 meets this season. They still have the region champion-ships on November 5 at Lykins Park in Winchester and the state meet at the Kentucky Horse Park on Novem-ber 12 in Lexington. With no seniors on the team, leadership roles are shared by sev-eral sophomore members such as Ryan McGuire, Cody Sutphin, Hogan Gagle, Matthew Kosier and Junior Prem Patel. Eighth Grader Sean Greer is also one of the top runners for the boys’ team. The girls’ varsity team is led by Middle school students Samantha Conway, Marissa Forrest, and April Eling. Other members include high school runners Tara Eling and Mer-edith Ledford. Coached by Hopey Newkirk, the Cross Country team has the poten-tial to see even more success in the next couple of years with the young talent on the team.

Our Montgomery County Indians enter senior night this Friday with a 4-5 record, but still in position to advance to state because of their district record. Though 4-5 doesn’t look great to the naked eye, or outside observer, our Indians have faced adversity all season. One of our senior leaders, Keenan Kelley, was out the first few games of the season due to a tear in his MCL. Kelley was poised to have a great season as a tight end and a defensive end. Not having him at the beginning of the season hurt our offense and defense. We lost talent, and a lot of experience on each side of the ball. That is something that is tough with a young team without a ton of depth. Without much experience or depth, certain players have shoul-dered much of the responsibility, primarily senior wide receiver/de-fensive back Daryl McCane. McCane has consistently made big plays this whole season, and showed younger players what hard work can do for your team. His leadership has been a big part of our

Indian’s success so far this season, and will be a big catalyst in our suc-cess the rest of the season. There is no doubt that this team has a lot of talent, and now that we have all of our key players healthy, we should be poised for a solid run during the post-season. Though Matt Tuttle is only a junior, he has multi-ple years experience as the starting varsity quarterback. Juniors Lance Lockeridge and Blake Preston also have plenty of varsity experience. Sophomore run-ning back/linebacker Uvea Moala already has a year of Varsity football under his belt, and continues to rack up impressive numbers. In the trenches, we have battled youth, and inexperience all season. With all of the young talent get-

ting experience this season, the fu-ture is bright for Montgomery County football, and we still have a lot to

be excited about for the remainder of this season.

This year’s boys’ soccer season has been one for the record books. At first, it looked as if the team may not have a successful year dur-ing pre-season play. This summer the boys’ soccer team played in the Bluegrass State Games, tying Ohio County and losing to Western Hills. The team learned a lot during that time and worked hard to put together a group worthy of a state title. The boys’ soccer team went 21-4-1 this season breaking the record for most games won in a season. Having a great record is not the only accomplishment for this team and its players.

Junior Sam Duzyk broke the all-time shutout record held by Willie Willoughby (1990) with 17. Junior Tanner Dice tied the record for most goals scored in one

game (6). The soccer Indians never lost a home game this season. Offense scored 63 goals while the defense only allowed 18 goals to be scored.

The boys’ soccer team is one of the most successful programs at MCHS. They won the Coach Lendon Classic by beating Western Hills in

a shootout, Elizabethtown 3-1, and the 17th ranked team in the state Scott High 2-1. The Tribe came in third in the Berea Cup getting their second loss

to Franklin Co. Winning district against Harrison Co. 2-0 was just the beginning of a successful run in the post-season. The boys also defeated Harrison in the region 1-0 advancing to the Sweet Sixteen to beat Newport Cen-tral Catholic 1-0. The Tribe eventually lost in the Elite Eight against a talented Ryle team 4-1. Coach Pannell said, “I am very proud of this team and what they have accomplished. This is one of, if not, the best team I’ve had the privilege of coaching. I will miss them as a team.”

Lifestyle In early August, fifteen beauti-ful girls put on their best smile and genuine attitudes as they competed for numerous scholarships, along with the title of the 43rd Montgom-ery County Junior Miss. Junior Miss is held annually to provide the experience of competition and out-going motivation to current senior indi-viduals. The winners were as follows:Fourth Runner Up: Sarah WaltersThird Runner Up: Megan WilsonSecond Runner Up: Yvonne WilliamsFirst Runner Up: Mor-gan KratzerWinner: Mackenzie Wyatt Not only did Mackenzie win the title of Junior Miss, but she was recognized as the first Distinguished Young Woman, which will be replac-

Megan Wells ing the overall title of Junior Miss in the upcoming years. Over $8,000 worth of scholar-ships were available to all of the contestants in Junior Miss. The girls were judged in categories such as fitness, evening gown, talent, and

academics. “Not only is Junior Miss an op-portunity to earn money for college, but a chance to bond and make memories between the girls involved

in Junior Miss that will last a life-time.” Mackenzie Wyatt said. She continued by encouraging all upcoming seniors to participate in the Junior Miss competition. Second Runner-up, Yvonne Wil-liams, said “Enjoy. It’s stressful, but

once it’s over you are going to miss it.” Not only did Junior Miss allow the winners to rack up on scholarships, it also allowed them to become bet-

ter people by being courageous and believing in themselves. “A performance like answering a question is totally different than things I’ve done in the past, such as singing. It definitely boosted my confidence”, said Mackenzie.

Mackenzie plans to attend the State Junior Miss competition that will take place in mid-January. She is excited and ready to represent her county with supe-rior talent and outgoing personality. The 43rd Junior Miss was a success and is expected to continue to boost young women’s confidence one year at a time. MCHS administration, faculty, and student body would like to wish

Mackenzie Wyatt good luck at the state. Bring home the Title!

Students of ENCORE will come together this fall to perform a vari-ety of musical presentations in order to prepare for the upcoming musical season. Showtime is November 13th at 2:30, but until then: practice, practice, practice. ENCORE is a musical troupe consisting of MCHS students ranging from freshmen to seniors. The group arranges dance and musical acts to perform in preparation for the Spring Musical. The main songs the group plans on performing are “Steal Your Rock ‘N Roll” from Memphis, “Big Spender” from Sweet Charity, “Sit down You’re Rockin’ the Boat” from Guys and Dolls, “Light” from Next to Normal, and a High School Musical Medley. Mrs. Barnes (director) said, “EN-CORE provides younger cast mem-bers, or students who have never participated in the Musical, with ex-perience. It gets rid of the jitters.” Luke Barnes commented with, “It prepares you for exposure to an audience.” With practice three days a week, students of ENCORE become a fam-

ily. MacKenzie Wyatt explained, “We spend so much time together and provide support for one another.” Older cast members will support upcoming members with advice or clear up confusion over dance steps or songs. “The most exciting part about preparing for a show has to be watching a student learning and having a great time. I really look forward to seeing the audience’s re-action right before show time,” said Mrs. Barnes. Students and people of the com-munity should come to the show to relax, enjoy show tunes from their favorite musicals, and support the arts for an afternoon in the MCHS auditorium. “We have really fun songs to perform, and are recognizable to all audiences,” MacKenzie proclaimed. ENCORE members look forward to the new talent that arrives with every school year. “Everyone should join ENCORE next year!” Macken-zie gushed, “It helps you grow as a person.”

Mt. Sterling, Kentucky is home of the well-known October Court Day. This huge festival has been going on for two centuries and a decade. “Court Day” is all about trading, eating, socializing, spending money, and listening to some good ole blue-grass music. The booths set up downtown sell items that range from clothing, socks, jewelry, purses, flags, knives, guns, and food. People come from all over to be a part of this massive flea market. They will walk elbow to elbow fighting the crowd to fill their nos-trils with scents of old leather, sweet kettle corn, fresh hot funnel cakes, dust, tobacco juice, hickory smoke, and hot dogs. Old timers say Court Day origi-nated from Colonial times. Our American form of government was based on the English County system brought to this country by early set-tlers. They revived the old English

Wise DecisionJames Thomas Jake Handshoe Montgomery County is going through a lot of changes this year. One of those involves the basketball team with new head coach Tony Wise. Coach Wise has been a head coach for 10 years. He has coached in Florida at Santa Fe High School, Alachua High School, and Gainesville High School. He also coached for two years at Frankfort High School in Kentucky. Coach Wise started coaching for many reasons. He said the main reason was, “For the love of basket-ball.” Wise has been around the game his whole life. He thought that coaching would be a way to give back and be a positive influence on the youth who play the game. Motivation is big for Wise. He said the fear of losing and striving to win motivates him as a coach. Bringing a group of kids with differ-ent backgrounds, beliefs, and agen-das together to focus on one thing is more satisfying to him as a coach than anything else. Coach Wise is very excited about this year. Even though he believes

the players have a lot to learn, Wise sees the first part of the season as a work in progress. He also knows that if the team works hard and con-tinues to push themselves, they will be a force to be reckoned with come tournament time. According to Wise, this year’s team will be more physical and bet-ter conditioned than any team we face this season. Wise also wants the team to adopt a new attitude from thinking we can win, to know-ing we can. Wise has set many goals for this year’s team. He wants to win the Christmas tournament, have a 20-plus win season, and to be the No. 1 seed in the district as well as show a steady improvement throughout the season. Of course, his ultimate goal is a trip to Rupp for the state tour-nament. Even though there have been many changes here at MCHS this year, this is definitely a wise one.

custom of setting aside an annual day on which county officials would sit as a county to settle matters

brought before them. This court was served by a sheriff, and the day for the meeting of the court became known as “Court Day.” In the turn of the century, Octo-ber Court Day was for its livestock sales. The festival was the largest

cattle and mule market in Kentucky. Court Day has changed in many ways since then.

Years ago you would see trad-ing and plenty of livestock. There would be streets filled with cock fighting and wrestling. Medicine men were also present during Court Day, selling and trading medicines, along with racing and horse trading.

Today, you do not see these types of events. Instead, you might find a health food or vitamin stand. The odor you’ll smell most is old-ham, sometimes over powered by green peppers, onions and sausage. The more popular booths have sweat-shirts, tee-shirts, and “as seen on T.V.” signs. A wrestling match or cock fight would not be looked up on too highly by visitors or law enforce-ment. Many people find Court Day to be a thrilling and enjoyable time. You can buy, sell, or trade. Two hun-dred and ten plus years of booths, food, livestock, and people. Over one hundred thousand visitors come to this Granddaddy of Flea Markets and enjoy this festival. Falling on the third Monday of every October, “Court Day”, has become a four day event. You haven’t lived until you have experienced October Court Day.

The game of kings also known as chess is a game of mind and wits. Most people see chess as a boring game where players take turns mov-ing pieces on a board, but to the MCHS Chess Team it is much more than just a game. Chess may not be the big thing on campus like football, basketball, or baseball, but the players are just as dedicated as the students who play sports. Having to practice every Tuesday and Thursday may not seem like a huge commitment, but going home to practice every day while having homework, and keeping up the social life of a high school stu-dent is not an easy task. Chess players must keep a clear mind and focus at all times. Chess is the game of wits, knowing what move to make next is just as diffi-cult as determining the next play on the football field.

The MCHS Chess Team was at the height of their game last year placing 6th in state. But like all high school teams, you lose a few players every year and have to go on. Last year’s chess team lost the bulk of their members to graduation. Many thought all hope was lost for a run at the state title this year due to the fact that the members were so young, mostly freshmen. Fortunately, this group of young players seemed a bit more skilled than anyone thought. The newest members of the team may be young, but they are dedicated to doing what it takes for their team to be a success. Chess is a fantastic game; it takes players to their wits end while trying to outsmart their opponent. With the skills and determination we’ve seen from the MCHS fresh-men chess players, the season looks bright.

Alex Collier The MCHS Academic Team has started an incredible season losing only one match in the Limestone Academic League. They are ranked 3rd overall, falling behind Mason and Fleming County. The Aca-demic Team is fighting hard to improve their ranking with only two regular season matches left in the season. The team com-petes in the same league as Augusta Independent, Bath, Bracken, Flem-ing, Lewis, Mason, Nicholas, and St. Patrick. “This is the best season we have had since I have been coaching at

the high school,” said Coach Terry Rhodes. Another highlight to the season is defeating Fleming Co. According to

Rhodes, this is the first time MCHS has beaten Fleming in 7 years. “Not only do we have a very strong senior group, we also have a very strong freshman group! This bodes well for the next few years,”

The Girls’ Golf Team may not have been as successful as the boys’ team this season; however, they have youth on their side and the future looks bright. Even though the team is inexpe-rienced, being young can be a huge advantage in years to come. The team’s leader, Haley Shrout, is just a junior at MCHS paired with many underclassmen by her side including talent from the middle school. The team has seen some success this season. Coach Dudley McKenna says she is very proud of her team and all of the accomplishments they have had this season. Although they did not do as well as they would have liked this year in the region, their youth, determina-tion, and work ethic will help this team to be a force to deal with in the future.

Girls’ GolfMatt Razor The girl’s soccer team started off

on a rough note. Losing to multiple teams in a row, the confidence of the girls started to go down while the number of loses continued to go up. Playing Boone, Woodford, and East Jessamine turned out to be tough battles for the Lady Indians. However, this allowed the team to recognize their weaknesses and what they needed to improve on to be successful for the rest of the season. Coach Payne commented on the difficulty of the schedule. “I knew this would lower our confidence as a team, but when we played district teams we would have an easier time beating our rivals.” When district games came around, our opponents’ difficulty level was less than teams faced early on in the season. This made winning district games much easier for the team. The soccer girls’ record for district play was 3-2 with the only losses to GRC. Even with all their efforts and finishing the season off on a strong note, they lost to Bourbon County in a shootout during region. Senior Courtney Norris said “It was tough losing to our biggest rival but I couldn’t ask more from my teammates.” The girls finished the regular season with a 9-10-2 record.
