Spirits were high Friday evening at Union County High School for the homecoming football game. The parade, held before the game, had drawn people in and showed the young women who were running for homecoming queen, as well as, the cheerleaders and members of the band. The Patriots played the previously undefeated Hancock Indians, beating them 35-14. This is Union County's second win this season. Student moral is high and the team is in high spirits as they are determined to erase the previous two seasons with the next two. With several freshmen showing great potential and a strong junior varsity team, it is no wonder school spirit is up.

The homecoming queen was announced as McKenzie Sharp, a senior running for the Future Farmers of America. The funds raised will go to purchase new supplies for the FFA.
