The Tahlequah Tigers Visit!

This morning Coach Tuffy Thornton & the Tahlequah Tiger football team visited classrooms at Greenwood. Our Tiger was named Gunner. He brought a white t-shirt and each child in our multiage signed it. Gunner plans on wearing the t-shirt under his pads and jersey during the first home game tonight against Catoosa Indians. The students were thrilled and loved meeting him. I grew up with coach Thornton. He is a wonderful role model and leader for the athletes. The Tigers hold a very special place in my heart. My dad coached the Tigers in the early 60's. I along with my brothers were born Tigers! I wish Coach Thornton & the boys good luck this season!!
