INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) — Student sections have been bringing the energy every Friday night so far this season in Central Indiana, competing for the coveted ‘Zone Banner.’

But, nobody has involved the entire community quite like Roncalli. In the days leading up to the WISH-TV tailgate at Roncalli on Friday, over 1,000 grandparents got together to chant “We Want The Banner!”

Not only did their grandparents show how much they wanted ‘The Zone Banner,’ but the students did on Friday night too. During the tailgate, two Roncalli students faced off in an epic pie eating contest.

The Royals team on the field is 1-1, losing to Bishop Chatard on Friday 9-3. This week, they travel to Columbus North to take on the undefeated Bulldogs.
