Come support our 7th grade girls volleyball teams as they welcome the Goddard Vikings today after school in their last games of the season.
8th Graders: These are the final days for your parents to submit your baby ad for the 2020 The Prowl Yearbook. If you want to keep the “baby in the tub” picture out of publication, then help your parents create your ad. October 4th (THIS FRIDAY) is the last day to submit these and the instructions for doing so are on the Powell website homepage or you can stop by the front office and pick up an instruction sheet.
Alright, alright, alright, it's time to run the annual Puma Prowl! Powell is holding the 22nd annual Prowl next Tuesday, Oct 8th at 4 pm. What better way to get a good workout in, be social with friends, win some great prizes in the student raffle and be a part of this fun community event.
It is free, family members can join, and there is no RSVP required. Just show up next Tuesday after school on the upper fields where the race will occur. Late busses will be offered after the race/raffle. We hope to see you there!!
Wow was there some exciting volleyball that happened at Newton yesterday afternoon. The C girls were feeling great after pulling out the win the night before at Goddard. They carried that energy into the first game of the night as they took an early lead against Euclid. The girls started the first game off hot as Evelyn J served about 12 straight points to give the girls a lead. That lead was too much for the Falcons to overcome as the Pumas won 21-6. The second game was much tighter but the girls had clutch passes when they needed them as they completed the sweep vs the Falcons.
The girls earned the right to take on the #1 team from Options who had only 1 loss for the season. The first game was a back and forth affair. The Pumas pulled out the win as the stud server from Options struggled and we had clutch serves from Linnea P and Vicki H. The highlight of the afternoon came in the 2nd game. The stud server from Options brought her team back as the Pumas saw their 7-3 lead evaporate away into a 12-7 deficit. The girls did not give up and had 3 different plays that saw 3 hits with an over hand swing. Some of the girls who were about of those plays included De M., Nora C., Anessa J and Zoey D. The girls fought hard and saw their efforts rewarded as they pulled out the win in the 2nd game by a score of 21-19. Please come out on Saturday as the C girls have earned the right to play for the 1st district championship at 1:00 PM here at Powell. See you there.
