- 6th grade, 7th grade, or 8th grade — who do YOU think has the MOST school spirit?! Well, we’re about to find out! Next week is SPIRIT WEEK at WMS — and the SCA challenges every student in every TA on every team in every grade to show their Wolf Pack Pride!
.
Here’s the rundown: Monday is Pajama Day; Tuesday is Twin Day; Wednesday is Wacky Hair and Hat Day; Thursday is Sports Day; and Friday is Ugly Sweater Day — a holiday tradition. So let’s have some fun and show some spirit for Spirit Week, wolves!!
- And finally today — Wolf Pack Pride is going strong! Yesterday, the WMS girls soccer team completed a HISTORIC season — defeating Kenmore 4 to nothing and winning the County Championship!
.
But that’s not all, this incredibly talented group of athletes accomplished something that has LITERALLY never been done in Arlington before: they went UNDEFEATED and UNSCORED upon all season long. You heard right — they didn’t give up a single goal!!
.
And now as a special treat — we’d like to welcome our very own County Champions to the WOLF-TV studio. Come on in, wolves!
.
Ladies and gentlemen, here they are — your Williamsburg Wolves, the greatest Soccer Team in WMS history! Take a bow, girls, you did it! [clap] LET’S GO WOLVES!! LET’S GO WOLVES!! LET’S GO WOLVES!!
