November is off to a great start for the Titans. Students and staff are wrapping up for the chilly weather when walking around campus, but West Forsyth academics and athletics are still flaming hot. Winter sports are holding tryouts while fall sports are finishing out their seasons. Last Friday, the varsity football team beat the Reagan Raiders, 31-21. On Friday, the Titans will take on Glenn High School at Glenn. The West Wackos will be showing just how much they love athletics with the theme Jersey Night.
