Glow fo' Sho

Truman’s annual Pack the House Dance was held Friday, Dec. 11. Before the dance, students attended the Truman Wrestling Tournament to cheer on their Patriot wrestlers as they took on schools from across the Kansas City metro area.
Truman ended up finishing third out of twelve teams with Kane Kaiser and Jonathan Gosserand leading the way for the Pats.
“I’m really proud of the guys,” wrestling coach Brad Jones said. “Especially for the seniors in the bunch. It’s a good way to go out.”
Students then headed down to the cafeteria to participate in the dance. With black lights adorning the Truman cafeteria, the students’ Pack the House shirts illuminated neon pink and blue.
“I loved the decorations, and the black lights were really cool,” sophomore Alyssa Jensen said. “I had an amazing time with all of my friends.”
Students got their groove on to various genres of music in the Truman cafeteria until 10:30 p.m. Many students regard the event as the best school event of the year.
“It was a really good time,” senior Cole Caswell said, “I had fun watching the wrestling match beforehand and the dance was a blast.”
For students, the electric energy from the wrestling matches to the dance itself still circled the air even after the last track played. Students exited the cafeteria leaving a trail of neon glow behind them, bringing the night to close.
