Faithful Followers
Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA) is a religious
club that meets every Friday at 7:45 a.m. At Colum-
bia, we have a diversity of beliefs and FCA allows
students of all faiths to come together once a week
to worship and grow in faith. This in turn, allows us
to have better discussions in the lesson and gives us
an opportunity to share a really great experience.

Morals
Different people have different morals, right?
But do we really live by these morals? Or do
we actually discipline yourself to keep your
morals? We can't let the storm define us and
our morals- we define the storm.

Dedicated Fans
Being a true fan isn't just cheering for the Tigers when
they're winning. It's putting body paint on in 30 degree
weather saying "Go Tigers!" and staying for the entire
game- even if it's a blow out. It's yelling and screaming
your head off, having people give you funny looks. It's
telling teams good luck when they come to school in
their team jerseys or dress clothes. It's when you rush
to the mushy, wet field to congratulate the players on
a great game, no matter the final score. You don't care
about looking cool, and you don't listen to those around
you who tell you to sit down or be quiet. It's the kids
covered in purple and gold: shirts, pants, shoes, socks,
hair, face-paint, and pretty much anything else. True fans
keep going to games, matches, and meets to support
the athletes even if the season isn't going well. They
keep the faith alive at Columbia High School.
