In high school, oftentimes you have friends, and hang out together at a local restaurant or else at each other’s houses, but you don’t necessarily play on a varsity athletic team with them. Often, the sports teams can be competitive within the ranks.
But in the case of the Floyd Central boys’ tennis team, they have four seniors, and they not only are good friends with each other, they enjoy spending time bonding with the freshmen players and helping them along.

“Tribute to Armed Forces”, featuring the U.S. Marine Silent Drill Platoon will perform Sunday, October 10, at 2 PM in Scottsburg, In.   This is a “back by demand” performance, since the Platoon has mesmerized spectators for the last 7 years.   “it is a winning situation for everyone,”  commented Don Cooper, President of the Scott County Visitors Commission.   A couple of the Marines have family members in the area, and over the years, many of the others have become close to their host families.  The hosts have become quite adept at providing the Marines a home away from home.  “We just appreciate them so much, what they do for their country, and certainly for their incredible performances,” according to Suzanne Berry, mother of Martin Wimp former  Platoon members.  This will be their 8th appearance In Scottsburg.
