On Oct. 30, Knightline will be performing a Michael Jackson
tribute dance at the Varsity football game. It will include the songs Beat It, Bad, and Thriller. Senior Alicia Delaney came up with the theme of the performance.

“I was assigned senior night,” Delaney said, “And since it is so close to Halloween and Michael Jackson just died we thought we’d do a whole mix of Michael Jackson moves.”

Since Delaney and others on Knightline are enthusiastic about doing the dance, they realize the amount of effort, time and focus needed to make it unforgettable.

“We still have work to do,” Delaney said, “But we are excited. It’s difficult just because there are so many steps to the dances.”

Even with the dance’s level of difficulty, Knightline coach Kelly Pierce believes her girls can give a great performance and have the crowd dancing along with Jacksons’ famous moves.

“I think it [the dance] will be very entertaining,” Pierce said. “Also the crowd will like it because the moves will be very familiar to them.”
Not only does Knightline want to tribute the dance to the former ‘King of Pop,’ but also display their skill.

“I hope that the school realizes the outstanding talent we have on Knightline,” senior Lauren Buxton said.
