What a close game
JV football played thursday night at Carolina Forest High at 6:30, they had played Sumter High School. It was a good game everyone says but it was so close the final score was 26-20 Carolina Forest panthers had lost and they got beat by the Gamecocks. In the first quarter there was only two touchdowns made both by Carolina Forest. The first one was made by 25 with 7:35 left the score was 6-0 and then they went for a one point and they had made it so then it was 7-0. After that with 2:24 left by player 21 made a touch down and then the score was 13-0, went for a one pointer again and made it once again 14-0. So far Carolina Forest was in the lead and was taking controll of the ball. Second quarter came and went with Carolina Forest making another touchdown with 4:44 left in the game 20-0 two point conversion failed. After they think they had this in the bag they should have thought again. Sumter finally gets the ball goes up feild with it to the touchdown mark and scores the first time it's 13-2- then next thing you know out of the middle of nowhere they tie the score 20-20. The buzzer went off final quarter came and went Sumter scored another touchdown and made the score uneven 26-20.

Substitute Assignment
I took the AP quiz and it was fairly easy, I just got confused on a few questions. I didn't get the chance to do it in class so i took it after school, i hope that isn't a problem.
AP Test Questions
I did about as well as I though I would do on this test. I got messed up on some of the technical and slight variation questions. I couldn't get the newsroom excercises to work.
CFHS Spirit Week
The spirit week for Carolina Forest High School was very interesting. I was attending a different school last year and spirit week then was very lame. People who actually participated looked awesome and some only did little things. Those who did black eyes for Injury Thursday looked realistic. It was tons of fun and neat. I hope to see much more fun things for next year. Lets go Panthers!!!
Online Quiz
I took the ten question quiz and got 100%. Fairly easy if you look at the questions and the positions they are in. Others were okay, but guessed and still got.
The Quiz
This quiz was a couple of trick questions, and it confused me. I didn't do to good on it because I was thinking of the notes we took and it went agaisnt all of them in a way. So I didn't do to good on the quiz, but I know what I need to work on now.
homework
I thought i did better but i really didn't. Some of those questions were really tricky. So be carful and read them slow.
Monday, While I am gone
Hello Young Journalists!
I have been staying out of your way on the blog, but since I am going to be out of class today, I wanted to leave you a few e-assignments for those of you who will be in class (those on the field trip will get credit for being excellently behaved young journalists in Columbia). You must complete the questions and the reading that the nice substitute gives you as well.
Follow this links, and complete the AP Style Quiz and the Newsroom 101 exercises (don't worry if you do poorly, but I think you will do better than you believe)

Happy editing.

NROTC Upcoming Drill Meet
The NROTC Drill Team has been working like crazy to do good at our drill meets. Our next drill meet is Nov. 5 at Conway High School. Zachary Norris and the other commanding officers, along with the staff, have been working super hard! They've been doing their best to make us the best. We are doing these drill meets because we want to be known. We want to make them proud, so wish us luck!
Texting Teenagers
When most teenagers are at school, they tend to text. They will text all day if they know they are good at hiding their phones. This event accures everyday until they are caught. Some will get their phones back and still tend to text. What they are not taking into account is that this affects how you learn, the information you need, and your grades. Others who actually care, will pay attention and not text. Parents do not help if they just give you some speech and give you your phone back. If the student wants to graduate, then pay attention. If they don't, then what are you doing in school? Don't stop other students' learning for a teacher to catch you and get yourself into trouble. PUT THE PHONE AWAY! I once heard, "If there's a switch on it, it must be turned OFF". Have some respect for not only yourself and put the phone away. Save your brain!

The score was a shocker in JV football
There was a big game at Conway high school Thursday night. Against the two rivals Carolina Forest panthers and Conway tigers. It was a tight game through all off it till it was fourth quarter and the buzzer went off. In the first quarter of the game had just started and Carolina Forest had alreay made a touchdown with 7:42 left the score was 7-0. Then another touchdown for the panthers, it was a long pass by number 7. So they ended up going for a two point converstion by quarterback number 4 which made the score 15-0. Next thing you no conway scaters down the feild, number 6 the quarterback had thrown a pass to number 7 and ended up making a touchdown. So they go risky with it and take the same thing we did two point converstion made it with 2:26 left and the score now is 15-8.
Second courter nothing really takes place till 1:29 left tigers make another touchdown by the quarterback. Scores 15-16. Then third courter came around and number 6 on the tiger side made another touchdown, which brings us to 22-15 Conways in the lead. After the last quarter the panthers thought we will come back and beat them take the ball and run this feild. Well once again another touchdown by number 8 on Conways side which made the final score 28-15. Yes panthers were sad we lost but they all say will get them next time.
Landon on the football team said they played there best and worked as hard as they could. Then i talked to number 1 JP and he said the same thing but another thing he added was i thought we would have had this. It was a close game but will defeat them next time.
