Cache Homecoming Features Several Comanche Students

Cache High School celebrated its homecoming event on Friday, September 29.

Four Comanche students were nominated to be a part of the homecoming court, including Isabel Glenn, a candidate; escorts Logan Crawford, Kyree Coleman and Ruben Cable.

Glenn said she had an idea of what it would be about.

“It was just like, I saw my cousins do it in the past, like my cousin escorting people in the past, so it was just like, I've been here for all the high school games, I grew up running around the stadium all the time, so I think I just always kind of knew, and I did have jitters for sure, but they just went away,” she said.

Glenn said she was nervous walking onto the field.

“I felt like I was going to fall on my face,” she said. “I was really nervous; I was hoping everything would just be fine, and just not trip and fall on my face.”

Glenn said being on the field was surreal.

“Actually, being in the spot where you see people in the past were, it was just a different feeling, like I've never felt before, and it was a good experience,” she said.

The candidates for the homecoming title didn’t run but were voted on by classmates.

“We were voted on by our school, and so were the top football players, and they just put us in alphabetical order with our last name,” Glenn said. “So, whoever we matched up with, that was going to be our partner.”

She is involved in several organizations.

“I'm a part of FCA, which is Fellowship of Christian Athletes,” Glenn said. “We meet every Wednesday; it's like a church time during lunch, and then I'm a part of FCCLA, Student Council, and Beta Club.”

She also plays basketball and soccer and is an athletic trainer for the football team.

Glenn said anyone wanting to be a part of the homecoming court should enjoy the moment while it lasts.

Crawford said being a part of homecoming was a dream come true.

“I've been wanting to do this, you know, when I was a kid,” he said. “You watch these guys and you look up to them, and I'm just glad that I got to do it with my friends.”

He said he was excited and happy the candidate he escorted won.

“Well, I was excited at first, and then I got a little nervous, more for my escort than me,” Crawford said. “And then just excitement and happiness when I found out Caroline won, she deserves it.”

Coleman said being selected was a big deal.

“It was a great honor to be there, you know, all the students selecting me,” he said. “I wasn't ready for it.”

Coleman said it was the first time he’d done something like this before.

“I was pretty nervous because it was the first time I actually did anything like this,” he said.

Cable said he was a little nerve-wracking.
 

“Because it was my first time doing it, and when we got out there, it just felt like, relieving, like, [alright] this is not that bad as I thought it was,” he said.

Cable said it was a big deal to be an escort.

“I'm just very, like, honored to be selected by my peers to be on the homecoming court. I feel like it's a very big thing,” he said.

This was the most native students and Comanche student involvement in Cache’s homecoming history.
