HIGH SCHOOL - March 10, 2004 |

I have
never been attacked at a game before. Ok, so I
wasnt fully attacked but I have had more
balls thrown at my head and players rolled into
my feet more times then Id like to count.
Tonights game was definitely a night of
rough and tumble. Players were getting thrown on
all ends of the court. The Knights were
struggling to pull ahead. By half time, it was
anyones game. It was edge of your seat, lip
biting excitement. Tonights game has
probably been the biggest game of the year so
far. We welcomed back veteran players Thad
Luckinbill (Young and the Restless, Just
Married), Jesse Metcalfe (Passions) and Eric
Winter (Days of our Lives). Cylk Cozart was on
fire, scoring many two pointers through out the
night. I have never seen so many foul shots the
entire night. The Burbank faculty wasnt
going down with out a fight. With only 47 seconds
remaining in the game, there were three fouls and
the points rallied back and forth between teams
with the Knights pulling ahead in the last second
with a final score of 67-66 leaving the Knights
undefeated this season.
The Knights welcomed newcomers Heidi Mueller (Who
Wants To Marry My Dad, Passions), recording
artist KB who sang a beautiful rendition of the
Star Spangled banner and rocked halftime with his
rendition of Michael Jacksons Rock
With You. We cant of course forget
our resident Knights: Cylk Cozart (White Men
Cant Jump), Wesley Jonathan (What I Like
About You), Greg Siff (From Justin To Kelly,
Dirt, Aberbrombie & Fitch), Bobby Edner (Spy
Kids 3D), Anthony Montgomery (Enterprise), Arlen
Escarpeta (American Dreams), Keith Robinson
(American Dreams), Kyle Brandt (Days of our
Lives, Real World), Tyler Hoechlin (7th Heaven),
and of course Khleo Thomas (Holes). Some
unexpected showing guests were Kirsten Storms
(Days of our Lives, Zenon), Alexis Thorpe (Days
of our Lives, American Wedding), Lauren Mayhew
(American Dreams), and Brittany Snow from
American.
During the second half, Khleo kept the audience
cheering by dancing in the court while players
were shooting for foul shots. Brutha rocked the
crowd even harder during half time with their
soulful voice and killer dance routines. It was a
game to remember. Although there were rough and
tumble times, its never a dull moment at a
Hollywood Knights game. |
