Class Acts On and Off the Field
When lightning halted the game at Wolf Stadium on Friday night, the Davenport High School Wolf Band proved that sportsmanship extends beyond the scoreboard by opening their auditorium to give the visiting Long Creek Dragon Band a safe shelter for their students and expensive instruments. Davenport directors, students, and parent volunteers went above and beyond throughout the evening—even stepping in to help load Long Creek’s trailer in the rain at the end of the night—prompting a public statement of gratitude from Long Creek praising the Wolf Band as "class acts all around." Beyond their musical talents on the field, the Davenport Band continues to set a gold standard for community, character, and quiet leadership when it matters most.
