A night that brought generations of Lions together.

From alumni reconnecting at Legacy Fest to honoring our 2026 Lyons Athletic Hall of Fame inductees to our community filling the stands under Friday night lights, Homecoming celebrated the past, present, and future of Lyons.

We loved seeing students, staff, families, alumni, and community members come together to celebrate the Pride and the traditions that connect generations of Lions.

Once a Lion, always a Lion.

We’re giving it another try, Lyons! After a few weather-related cancellations, we've rescheduled one of our favorite fall traditions for Monday night, September 28th at 7:00 pm.

But this time, we’re being extra careful. We’re not even saying its name for fear of jinxing it. We’re not taking any chances!

Read on for the details, and whatever you do, don’t jinx it!
.

.

Rain, rain, you’ve had your turn,
There’s one fall tradition we’d still like to burn… 🔥


Our annual fall tradition is waiting for you,
With friends, fun, and something special to do!

​
We’ve tried and tried, but the rain said “NO!”
So this time, there’s one rule before we go…


Don’t say the name. We won’t say it, too!
It’s been canceled enough… we’re not tempting you-know-who. 🤫


No jinxing this time, no tempting the skies,
We’re crossing our fingers for a Monday surprise!


But here’s a hint if you’re still unsure:
Think crisp fall air, friends gathered ’round,
and a BIG pile of wood waiting to light up from the ground. 🔥


📅 Monday, September 28th
⏰ 7:00 PM
📍 Fieldhouse Parking Lot
​
So bring your smiles, your friends, and your cheer,
Our favorite (unnamed 😉) fall tradition is almost here!

🤞🔥 And whatever you do… DON’T SAY THE NAME!

ATHLETIC SPOTLIGHT: Megan Taylor and Anaya Bailey earned two of the top singles finishes at the annual Wayne County Tennis Tournament in North Rose-Wolcott, with Megan taking 1st place and Anaya finishing 2nd!

For Megan and Anaya, the finishes reflect the growth they’ve shown throughout the season, both individually and as a team. “We’ve improved a lot since the beginning of the season,” Anaya said.

With a younger team this year, both have also stepped into leadership roles. Megan remembers being the youngest on the team as a freshman and learning from the juniors and seniors around her. Now a junior, she’s helping pass along what she learned to the next group. “It’s been fun because now I’m showing them things that were once taught to me by the older players,” Megan said.

Coach Cole said their success is a reflection of who they are both on and off the court. “I’m incredibly proud of Megan and Anaya. They’re great athletes, but even more importantly, they’re great kids. They work hard, support their teammates and represent Lyons the right way.”

What are they looking forward to most for the rest of the season?
“Just playing tennis. We just love it,” they said. They’re also excited to watch their younger teammates keep growing. “Seeing how hard they work and how much they’ve improved has been one of the most rewarding parts of the season.”

Congratulations, Megan and Anaya! We’re proud to see your hard work, growth, and leadership on and off the court!
