On Saturday, Nov. 16, Freedom High School held the annual Powderpuff Football game of juniors versus seniors.

“It was such a fun experience,” junior Carina Funk said. “Since the junior guys lost the volleyball game, it was amazing to bring a win back to the juniors and make our class proud.”

The junior team scored two touchdown in the first half. The seniors scored a touchdown in the second half, yet it was waived due to a player being outside boundaries. Although both teams played an amazing game, the juniors defeated the seniors with a score of 0 to 14.

“It was super fun, but I don’t think we took it as seriously as the juniors,” senior Ella Ledsome said. “We could have been more prepared, but it’s just supposed to be a fun game, so I’m not upset about the outcome.”
