During halftime at the homecoming game, Nov. 6, after performances by the cheer team and the school band, an excited crowd waited with bated breath for senior Breana Meagher to announce this year’s homecoming queen. The 2009 homecoming queen is Kellie Ishisaki and the runner ups are Kimberly Chatterjee, Emily Khuc, Monique Pascual and Shay Mozzetti in second, third, fourth and fifth places, respectively. Erika Gerards, last year’s homecoming queen, returned to crown Kellie as queen. The court rode into the game in convertibles, escorted by their fathers, all of whom were ecstaticly proud of their daughters. All of the girls were happy for Kellie, and proud to be part of the homecoming court.
“I was really excited. I had been hoping that she would win because she has done a lot for the school throughout the year,” Chatterjee said.
The next night, at the homecoming dance, this year’s Mr. Husky was crowned. Brian McMahon, last year’s Mr. Husky, came back to crown Cedric Lousi as the winner of the title. The first, second, third and fourth runner ups were Austin Wong, Seth Neumann, Ben Rich and Jack Veronin, respectively. Halfway through the event, the lights were turned on, and everyone stopped dancing as the Mr. Husky nominees were led onto the stage by the homecoming queen nominees. There were smiles all around when Cedric was announced as winner, and he broke out into a huge grin while his mom came on stage to congratulate him.
“I was just excited and happy that I won,” Lousi said.
He definitely hoped to win and it came as a great surprise when his name was announced.

Being a cheerleader at Washington High School is not an easy task. They cheer at all school football games, home or away, and they practice for future tournaments and competitions. The girls went all the way to Santa Cruz Sept. 26 to see if their practice had paid off. In past sixth years, the girls have owned this tournament’s title. And now, in their seventh year, they’ve done it again.
“It’s worth working really hard in practice, as long as you come out on top. Especially because it’s my senior year, I want to go out with a bang and win all the competitions we have on our schedule,” senior varsity squad captain Shay Mozzetti said.
