At-a-glance

Students organized a costumed appearance at a recent boys basketball game. School officials responded by awarding prizes. - staff
Imagine going to a basketball game and seeing a banana, a French maid, or even a Sumo wrestler. That is what the Big Spring students saw at the boys' Senior Night basketball game on Tuesday. Many students sported crazy costumes for the game.
The best part is it was "just for fun" said senior Riley Weibley. 
Seniors Ashley Hegan and Taylor Brandeburg got the idea from seeing Northern students wearing costumes at their game. The idea to turn it into a contest came from Athletic Director Jay Hockenbroch, Principal Steve Smith, and Heath Myers. The students say that they were caught off guard with the contest, and were told that the winners would be announced at half time. 
Three students received awards for their costumes. In third place was Mitchell Clouse who sported a French maid costume, in second place was Ashley Hegan who was a Christmas tree, and in first was Nick Hasse as a Spartan. 
Parents asked the students who participated to wear their costumes to the upcoming playoff game, according to Weibley. 
The students who participated this year said that they hope that the juniors continue this tradition for the upcoming years.
