Manual girls meet for Powderpuff game

Manual girls meet for Powderpuff game

Manual’s junior and senior Powderpuff teams faced off at Manual Stadium last Wednesday, October 22 as part of the annual Red/White Week tradition, ending with a Senior victory of 24-12.

The all-girls flag football game is a popular tradition for many high schools across the country, and it is usually for fundraising purposes. The $2 admissions fee went towards the junior and senior proms.

The Powderpuff game also included a performance by the junior and senior male cheerleading squads, commonly referred to as the “LoverBoyz.”

As soon as halftime started, the LoverBoyz raced onto the field for a senior/junior dance-off.
