Traditions run deep in Southside, and one of our favorite traditions is celebrating our #1 fan, Miss Judy! Every year, the Southside Southerners make a special visit to bring her the official Homecoming shirt, ensuring she’s ready to cheer on her team in style.
Miss Judy’s spirit, enthusiasm, and love for Southside captures what it means to be a Southerner. Thank you to our players and coaches for keeping this wonderful tradition alive! 💙 #GoBigBlue #SouthsidePride #HomecomingTraditions
