Starting with this week’s Homecoming football game, you will notice that there are 8 rows of seating on the home side that have been painted blue. This is a special section for very spirited Warriors called the Blue Man Crew.
Blue Man Crew Section
In order to get into the Blue Man Crew section, students or fans must have some form of blue paint on their bodies. It can be as simple as a blue “P” on their cheek or a full face painting. Students are talking about it and are really excited to be a part of it.
Show your Warrior Spirit by being part of the Blue Man Crew!

Dr. Lettes with Pueblo CTE Department

On behalf of all the Pueblo Family, we congratulate Dr. Lettes.
During the football game versus the Cholla Chargers, senior Ruben Canastillo broke the record for longest interception return for a touchdown. Ruben intercepted a pass on the 2 yard line and took it 98 yards for the score.
The previous record was held by Charles Quihuis (Bowerman) 1971 & Robert Greene (Bowerman) 1975 both for 90 yards.
Here’s the video:
Ruben was very excited to find he had broken the record. “I just read the quarterbacks eyes and broke on the play,” he said. He received a plaque and his name will be added to the football record books.

Congratulations to Ruben! The question is, how long will this record stand?
