Juniors Take It Home With The Win!

By: Rachel Winterfeld

This year's annual Powder Puff game was held at the football

field at 6:00 pm on October 11. The beginning of the first games

started a little after 6:00 when all teams were ready to fight. On

one side of the field, the freshmen and seniors battled for the win,

the seniors won that game like champs. On the other side of the

field, the sophomores and juniors battled to see

who played the seniors for the next game and push-

ing through, the juniors won.

The next games were played after a short inter-

mission with freshmen vs. sophomores and juniors

vs. seniors for the championship. The junior/senior

game was all tied up 6-6 with a little under a minute

to go and the juniors scored another touchdown. Sadly, it was

over for the seniors. First place went to juniors, seniors placed

second, sophomores received third place and freshmen took

fourth place while keeping their heads up, hopeful for the next

years to come.

Tiger Tales would like to thank the high school students who

coached, some of the football team coaches for refereeing, the

football moms for running the show this year, and everyone who

played in the games. Hope to see you all next year, and may the

odds be ever in your favor!

Jarren Altman: “I would rather be hatefully remembered be-

cause I don’t want to be a nobody”

Shaina Baldwin: “I would rather be hatefully remembered

because I don’t care what people say”

Vicky Scarberry: “ I would rather be hatefully remembered

because haters are my motivators”

Mrs. Tejkl: “I would rather be totally forgotten because it

would bother me to be remembered in a negative way"

Tiger of the Week

By: Brittany Atkinson and Andrea Weirauch

This week’s Tiger of the Week is Kelsea

Rohrs. At the Edgerton invite, catastrophe struck.

Kelsea was just settling into the race at about the

one-mile mark when some evil competitor stepped

on her shoe and disengaged the shoe from her foot.

Refusing to go back, she soared forward to a solid

finish! Kels finished with a new PR of the season and

with a new bad to the bone reputation. Rawr on

Rohrs!

Inappropriate Dancing is No Longer School Appropriate

By: Andrea Weirauch and Sarah Yaney

School dances at Liberty Center High School have changed forever. “Grinding”,

“Twerking”, and or inappropriate physical contact while dancing will no longer be tolerated at

Liberty Center High School. These rules were added to the handbook at the beginning of the

school year and every student signed a paper agreeing that they had read the rules and under-

stood them. The handbook states: “For grades 7 through 12, all school rules and code of conduct

are in force during all dances. Students must face their partner when dancing and inappropriate

dancing will not be tolerated. Students will be warned the first time and be asked to leave the sec-

ond time. Parents will be called when a student is being asked to leave the dance for inappropri-

ate dancing. The dress code is in force during all dances.”

As we all know, this was a big controversy this year at our homecoming dance. In lieu of all

of our actions, this behavior should not take place at a school event because what if people in the

community came in and saw that? What would they think of that behavior? Our dances are school

affiliated and therefore school behavior should still be carried out and respected.

Football Tigers Take A Win Over The Red Devils And A Hard Loss To

The Bryan Bears

By: Alexa Polsdorfer

The wrap up for the seventh week for the Tigers was a good

game. The Tigers took on the Red Devils from Arlington with the

final score of 28-23. The Tigers kept the Devils on their toes

throughout the game. The ending of the game was a nail-biter

but the Tigers pulled through. Anthony Righi, Henry Elling, Levi

Frysinger, Jordan Smith, and Kaleb Pohlman led the Tiger offen-

sive. And Logan Smith led the Tigers in solo tackles.

Week 8 of Tiger football has just passed. And the Tigers

took the loss when they traveled to Bryan. The Tigers were able

to keep up, up to the half, and then started to lose it in the third.

On the offensive side for the Tigers, Anthony Righi,Henry Elling,

Kaleb Pohlman, and Jordan Smith led the Tigers in rushing yards.

On the defensive side, Konnor Pohlman, Nick Demaline, and

Levi Frysinger led the team in blocks. The Tigers played very

tough and will be facing the Delta Panthers in week 9 for senior

night!

leading up front for the Tigers was Colin Burns, Vince Pinson,

Trick or Treat?

By: Gaby Hawkins

Halloween is a time for scares, candy and dressing up as your favorite character, superhero, etc. It

seems Halloween is turning more for the adults than for the kids. Halloween is meant for the little kids to

run around in their costumes and receive candy from the neighbors. Adults, and teenagers especially are

becoming more and more willing to go trick or treating in compromising costumes.

This issue has been going on for a long time now and it needs to be addressed. Young children are

being exposed to inappropriate teenage and adult costuming during trick or treat night and they shouldn’t

be. Parents do not want their children being exposed to such things and have a right to say something

about the issue.

This Halloween season, teenagers and adults should be considerate to the young children that are

influenced by the world around them and chose something more conservative or decide to hand out candy

instead.

This new student is Kaelen Brown. Kaelen

came over from Defiance High School. This

sophomore really enjoys how nice everyone

Mrs. Stuckey was born and raised in Ak-

ron, Ohio. She was homeschooled throughout

high school. After she graduated high school, she

attended Kent State in order to obtain the lovely

job of teaching that she has now. She’s really en-

joying the students so far and she loves how wel-

coming the staff is. Besides Liberty Center, Mrs.

Stuckey has taught at Northwest High School in

Akron and Green High School in Akron. In her

spare time, she enjoys running, playing the piano,

and cooking while she listens to pop and folk mu-

sic. Her biggest pet peeve is plagiarism. If she

could learn one random skill, she would learn

how to snowboard. Some of her favorites include

the restaurants Olive Garden and Carraba's, the

clothing store The Limited, the colors green and

pink, and the Fall season.
