It is once again time for Midnight Madness on Friday, Nov. 8 following the varsity football game. Midnight Madness is a special night for basketball at AHS. It is the night that basketball shows off the new girls’ and boys’ varsity teams. It is a time for the community to come together and celebrate the start of a new basketball season.
To start it off, players will emerge from the AHS Eagles tunnel to the music and, sometimes, dance that is felt to best represent each player’s individuality and characteristics on the court. After announcing the teams, the players have a great time involving the crowd by choosing contestants from the audience. T-shirts, prizes, and sometimes even cash will be given to a lucky few who get chosen to participate in a variety of games. This event is a way for the basketball program to get fans excited about the upcoming season and encourage them to attend the games.
Plan to attend and support the upcoming basketball season.
