Senior Natalie Kendig shows off her pink hair. She is excited to go all out for pink out.

It’s Friday morning in the point and one person with pink hair walks in, then another one, and soon enough the room is filled with pink. Tonight the Wilsonville football team will take on Hillsboro for the last regular season home game.

Besides playoffs, this will be the last time seniors are able to watch their peers play football, or cheer at Randall Stadium. Tonight they will honor all seniors who play football, cheer, dance, or play in the pep band. It is senior night, and this game also has a beloved theme: pink out.

Seniors Liza Locke and Eli Sievers have been putting together their outfits. Locke enjoys attending the games, “everyone is so united with their school spirit, and it is fun to see everyone get so hyped for the school.”

While pink out is many people’s favorite, Locke enjoyed neon out, and Sievers’ favorite was light out. Also Wilsonville hasn’t had a USA out this year, Sievers enjoyed it last year and hopes we it happens again during the postseason.

Sievers who hopes to run one of the flags tongiht will miss the atmosphere, “Football brings the most students together so it won’t be the same without our Friday night games.”

We hope to see you there. Good luck Wildcats.
