Students regularly announce upcoming games in assembly, calling on us to come and support the team. But most games are played (on Wednesday and Saturday afternoons) when everyone else is busy, too. So, evening games--such as girls' and boys' basketball recent wins over St. Andrew's School (RI)--drew a huge, spirited crowd. Junior varsity girls' basketball dressed in game uniforms to provide a tunnel for the varsity:
Kaitlin "Pinky" Fifield may not have known, but everyone in the house was counting down as she neared her 1,000th point at Proctor. Late in the first half, she went to the free-throw line....and....there it is!
The refs and visiting team knew what was happening, and we took a couple of minutes to celebrate. A referee presented the game ball to Pinky. Here, she gets a congratulatory hug from her coach and mother, Noreen.
The rest of this page is dedicated to the fan base. It's a little hard to see the "1" on Hunter's white shirt, but you get the point....
School spirit was sky high as the girls took a large lead.
For one, brief moment, a wave passed left to right!
Following the girls' victory, the boys' varsity earned a tough win over a team that beat us last week. The difference? Fans having fun!
