Beggs holds a Senior Night to remember
By TIFFANY BELL SPECIAL TO THE TIMES

The Beggs community came together Friday night to celebrate Senior Night, honoring the hard work, dedication and spirit of the school’s senior athletes and performers across football, cheer, softball and band.

Before kickoff, the crowd rose to its feet as seniors were recognized on the field, escorted by family members to the sound of cheers and applause. Each student’s accomplishments and future plans were announced, highlighting their years of commitment to the Golden Demons.

The Beggs football team delivered an inspired performance, feeding off the energy of the crowd and their senior leaders. It may not have been the turnout we hoped for that night, but the 2025 Demons are advancing to the playoff after the incredible season they have had. Meanwhile, the cheer squad and band kept the stands alive throughout the night, adding to the electric atmosphere.

Softball seniors were also recognized for their outstanding fall season and contributions to the program, earning loud cheers from fans and teammates alike.

Principal and coaches alike praised the Class of 2025 for their leadership and resilience, both on and off the field. “These seniors have set the standard for what it means to be a Beggs student-athlete,” said one coach. “Their legacy will continue to inspire those who follow.”

As the night ended under the bright stadium lights, it wasn’t just about the score- it was about celebrating the dedication, pride and spirit that make Beggs High School special.

2025 Fall Seniors included: Madison Bryant, Lizzie Cobb, Melodie Davis, Zander Duck, Zavier Duck, Aliviah Green, Allee Hall, Lily Maddux, Talon Swanson, Jenna Todd, Emma Trimble, Kaylynn Hamilton, Avery Been, Kai Mitchell, Jada Trent, Mylah Williams, Bobby Baker, Eliel Baltazar, Ethan Davison, Landon Geneva, Sam Gourd, Alley Hatfield, Peyton Kelley, Dawson Richardson, Caleb Romans, Aiden Taylor and Jordan Wesley.
