On a quiet morning, the community in Burbank was peaceful and quiet.
The streets are empty but clean. It often takes a long time to see a pedestrian, and occasionally a few cars pass by.
It is located at the northern end of Los Angeles, adjacent to Interstate 5, which runs through California from north to south.
Inside the house, an old man with gray hair and beard crossed his legs and leisurely read the newspaper in his hand.
It was summer vacation, and he had just spoken at the BHHS graduation ceremony a few days ago. Now he could relax for a while and decide where to go for vacation during the summer.
This is the benefit of being a high school principal. Although the pay is not particularly large, at least you can have a relatively generous vacation.
However, before he officially takes his wife and daughter to Hawaii or Queensland, he will encounter another additional thing this year.
The sports director of BHHS has secret dealings with the head of Vinocco... The headquarters of the private group has sent a special investigation team to investigate this matter. Employees and middle managers have been summoned every day in the past few days.
In fact, he knew something about this matter, and the athletic director had been at this school even earlier than him, and was a member of the school board of directors. As for myself, I am just a candidate that is agreed upon by many parties within the group, otherwise I would not be able to sit in this position.
Now that the private education group wants to investigate, of course he will cooperate fully, but he will not get too involved, and he will never say more than he should, ensuring that no one will be offended.
He will retire in three years, and what he needs now is to retire with success.
It is strange to say that this incident was first caused by the personal affairs of the son of the head of Vicno. Through the "Orange County Observer" exposure, the headquarters traced the clues all the way to the sports director. It is really surprising.
"Dad, have you seen my contact lenses?" The daughter was holding a chicken coop on her head, a toothbrush handle in her mouth, and her nightgown was tilted to one side, exposing half of her shoulders.
He is over 30 years old and still acts like a child.
If there was anything else that worried him, it was his daughter. She had a short marriage, divorced 8 years ago, and is still single. She doesn't know what she is thinking about every day, and she is heartless. In the end, she had to be allowed to enter the school and continue her job as a cheerleader. She was a member of the cheerleading squad through middle school, high school and college, and also served as a professional cheerleader for the Los Angeles Rams for a time. Now continues as a cheerleading coach.
In school, cheerleading may be a glamorous status, but after entering society, no one will care about these things, and the salary is not high.
"On the shoe cabinet." John pointed to the door.
"By the way, I have a friend, he is..."
"We'll talk about it when I get back. There's a cheerleading training class today, and the spirit national competition will start soon." Grace's voice came from a distance.
John had no choice but to shut his mouth angrily, and the landline phone next to him rang.
Is it your turn to be questioned?
He answered the phone and heard new news.
The call was not from the investigation team, but from the headquarters. The school's athletic director was suspended today and he will temporarily take over his job.
"I know." John hung up the phone, put on his glasses and looked at the newspaper in his hand carefully.
He is a die-hard fan of the Los Angeles Rams, or this year should be called the St. Louis Rams, and regularly reads the news on the sports page every day.
And today, he actually saw the words BHHS on the sports page!
"The rookie quarterback from Beverly Hills High School is ready to bring Southern California dominance to disrepute!!!"
The title is a declaration of war. A young athlete challenges the strongest football high school in Southern California with quite provocative words.
The content of the article introduces a professional high school sports reporter named Ethan O'Connor. He greatly praised this young player who suddenly emerged. In the last round of the league that ended not long ago, Ethan used his outstanding His performance earned him the MVP title. He has excellent physical fitness and excellent passing touch, as well as a steamroller-like ability to run the ball.
"This could be the best high school quarterback in California in a decade." The article ends with this sentence.
John immediately put on his glasses and read it again from cover to cover. Look at the handsome young man with a thumbs up printed on the newspaper.
John seemed a little excited.
You know, the last time a BHHS player received widespread attention, he and Grace's mother didn't even know each other.
He also noticed that Ethan was grateful to the school in his words, and personally introduced in detail the school's heavy investment in sports, focusing on promoting the school's excellent facilities, and also highlighted the school's ability to freely switch to a swimming pool. The indoor gymnasium can be regarded as a very careful publicity by the school. The staff in the admissions office may not be as careful as he is.
It's getting more and more interesting.
John immediately called his daughter over.
"Do you recognize this Ethan O'Connor?" John asked quickly.
"I know, of course I know, Dad, I really hope he joins the cheerleading team, what do you think?" Grace was very impressed by Ethan O'Connor in the newspaper.
"He can't go anywhere. He will stay on the football team wholeheartedly." John has already made up his mind. Considering that he is only in the tenth grade and still has two years left, he might be able to bring a turnaround to the stagnant Normans!
As a private school, a football team with good results is a golden sign of the school, which will attract more parents and more talented students. This is how Santa Ana High School got its name. In addition, there are many additional economic benefits and many benefits.
"If I remember correctly, the next game for the Normans will be at Burbank High School." John planned to be there in person to show encouragement. That high school was not far from his home.
Grace's eyes rolled: "I want to go too!"

The school bus stopped at a hotel in Burbank, where all members of the team will stay tonight.
The game starts tomorrow night. We will stay here overnight and return early the day after tomorrow.
"Stay in the room tonight. You can't go anywhere. Go to bed early today. When I knock on the door tomorrow morning, if I find anyone not in the room... don't even think about playing tomorrow night." Thomas helped Holding the seat handle, he explained additionally.
Ethan and Flea shared a room, and he jumped on the bed as soon as he entered the room.
"This bed is so soft." The flea shouted, looking like a child.
Ian took out the tactical board in his backpack and reviewed his tactics.
Relying on the three tactics from the previous game, Thomas provided multiple formation changes and multiple new offensive lines. Compared with the last time, Thomas was less easily targeted.
"You said, Thomas imprisoned us here, will he go out and have fun?" Flea then asked.
"Flea, how did you and Matic practice the scissor tactics?"
"Not bad, relax Ethan, we are 90% sure of this game. Did you hear that the quality of Burbank's cheerleading team is not bad..." Flea was obviously more interested in this topic.
"Our real opponent is not Burbank, but Santa Ana," Ethan corrected.
If you want to go further, you must cross the hurdle of Santa Ana.
He naturally knew that Burbank was weak, but he could not underestimate the enemy.
In the evening, Ethan and Flea went to the cafeteria downstairs to eat. Accommodation and food were all borne by the school.
Flea seemed to be very familiar with this place. When Ethan asked, he found out that the hotel chain where the team stayed last time was considered the designated supplier of BHHS, not only for the football team, but also for other sports events, including various events organized in the name of the school. of summer camps will choose this hotel chain brand.
That night, Ethan used the hotel phone to talk to Catherine on the phone until the flea in the room was too sleepy to hang up.
The next morning, the team showed up at the Burbank High School stadium on time. What was strange was that they did not see the opposing team's players, but they saw Burbank's cheerleaders. They were standing by the stadium, looking like they were cheering for the team. Final rehearsals for tonight's performances and cheers.
Yes, for high school and college cheerleading teams, in addition to performances such as flower ball cheerleading and acrobatic cheerleading, on-site cheering is also a separate project that combines prop production, skill performances, dance elements, and creativity. The array can also be regarded as a unique campus culture.
Ethan took a second look and realized that what the flea said was right. She was a fresh and beautiful white girl with clear water. She wore the iconic blue bow on her head and a blue and white one-piece skirt with the same color as the school emblem. Team uniform.
Ethan only took a second look. Don't think about having anything to do with the home cheerleaders in the away game. The enemy is the enemy. Any cheerleader who dares to get close to his opponent is guaranteed to become the public enemy of the whole school the next day.
so……
"Get ready for training!" Ethan smashed the ball at Flea, who couldn't take his eyes away.
