Students will have a variety of food items thrown at them as they struggle to keep their hands on the clock tower during the Tower Stand competition from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Friday, and then fans of all ages will have a chance to get their voices ready for the game at the pep rally at 6 p.m. in the Thomas Assembly Center.
