Tough Guy was on April 2, 2019. It is a senior activity they do every year, which involves senior boys playing volleyball and senior girls volunteering to coach the boys. Every year, they have had this volleyball game in the gymnasium, but this year they ran into issues with the Oil Tech Academy’s Career Day, which occupied the gymnasium. So, they decided on having the game on the football field.

Before the game, many people were disappointed with the arrangements and were very upset, some seniors also wanted to cancel the game at the school and arrange their own. We asked some of the participants and coaches how the game went and what they thought about it overall, Alex Garcia said, “I liked it; the set up wasn’t bad. They put paint on the field, but the wind was the only problem.” One of the coaches, Kaila Hoffmann, added, “It wasn’t as bad as I thought it was going to be, but the wind screwed us up.” Another participant, Alex Delgado, said, “I’d rather it be in the gym, and I was mainly irritated because of the wind.” Overall, the game didn’t go as bad as they expected; they had fun and had a little bit of a challenge, but it all ended well.
