(Video) National Anthem before B-B-E v. WCA/A football

Here's the combined choir of the West Central Area and Ashby high schools singing the National Anthem on Friday night. Veterans were given special recognition prior to the game.

Well done! This was the first time I've watched a high school choir perform the National Anthem before a football game. I was impressed. I also want to point out that the season has been emotionally difficult for WCA/A fans, coaches and players as they are coming to terms with the loss of Pat Anderson, "PA" to everyone in Grant County, who was the WCA high school Dean of Students and Activities Director. He was killed on July 30 in an accident northwest of Kensington. One of his two sons, Ross Anderson, is the junior starting quarterback for WCA/A.
