        Following the crushing defeat of the Pender Pendragons, Mount Michael capped off the storybook ending to their season with a dance in the Armory. "The night started to get good when Ron Kmiecik finally got the chance to throw down his tomahawk slam and electrify the Palace," said sophomore Matt Haas. The Knights had their customary Winter Family Night after their last home game. While the parents sat in the student dining room feasting on a smorgasbord of hot dogs, roast beef sandwiches, cookies, and pop, the Mount Michael students got a chance to show off their dance moves in the Armory.

       The theme of the Mount Michael dance hosted by National Honor Society was Mardi Gras. The decor of the dance complemented that theme. You were also able to purchase Mardi Gras beads, hats, and masks to wear. Tim Pagett a sophomore at Mount Michael said, "This was the best Mount Michael dance I had ever been to." Sophomore Zach Casey added, "It was fun to see Father Louis regulating the premises."

        The dance included many of your traditional Mount Michael dance songs which included, "The Electric Slide" and "The Cha-Cha Slide." A crowd favorite seemed to be "The Macarena." Cole Bunner a freshman at Mount Michael said, "I hadn't heard that song in ages, but I still remembered the dance steps."

        Matt Luettel a senior at Mount Michael said "I could not think of a better way to go out on my senior night. Not only did we get a victory, I got the chance to show off my dancing skills."
