MADISON- And the envelope please.

Those were the words the big crowd at homecoming waited patiently through pre game festivities and the first half of football to hear. When it was finally made it seemed to catch the crowd by surprise but it was a popular choice voted on by the students.

Mae Crumbley, a member of the tennis team, was crowned the 2014 homecoming queen by Kaitlyn McGinnis and Principal Robby Parker at halftime. Bob Jones was leading 21-7 at that time but ended up losing 36-29.

Crumbley was escorted by her father Tim, who is also the Bob Jones tennis coach.

She is a senior who will attend Alabama in the fall. She plans to major in biology/pre-med.

“Very much surprised but very happy,” Crumbley said of her reaction when she won.

“We had a lot of representatives this year so it makes it that much more special. I’m very excited and very appreciative of what everyone has done for me this year.”

She has been on the tennis team since seventh grade and is the No. 1 seed on the girls team this year. Tennis in Alabama is a sanctioned spring sport.

“I’m looking forward to another year of playing tennis for Bob Jones with my dad. I will still play in college but just for fun, maybe intramural sports,” Crumbley said.

This years homecoming court was history-making. Two sets of twins were among the seniors vying for the title.

For Crumbley all it took was one try to take the crown. This was the first year she has made homecoming court while at Bob Jones.

On the field, Florence rallied from a 21-0 second quarter deficit to score 36 straight points including 21 in the third quarter.

For Bob Jones coach Kevin Rose the game didn’t turn out like he wanted but otherwise it was a very good night escorting his daughter Kaylee who made homecoming court for the third straight year.

“I had a great night,” Rose said. “My daughter was on homecoming court for her senior year so I was blessed to be a part of that and me and my wife are very proud of her. I am also proud of the way our players played.”
