Apparently it only takes 5 or 10 minutes to transform from mild-mannered seventh-grade girls into high-power, "most school spirit in the whole junior high" Sunnyside Christian superfans.

You could do it too, as long you have a friend's mom with a little bit of free time and some scarlet and gold paint.

Janelle DeGroot, 12, (left) and Renae Visser, 13, (right) are those kind of fans, although "we didn't have time to do it yesterday." Sunnyside's girls came through anyway, though, knocking off #1-ranked and undefeated Sprague-Harrington.

For tonight's boys game against Northwest Christian, the Sunnyside superfans weren't leaving anything to chance. "We'll do it tomorrow, too," Renae said, then immediately launched into a list of all the great things about Knight basketball. These girls are serious.

And tomorrow they'll be a trio, too. That's 12-year-old Devi Knotts in the middle of the picture, and she'll have a fair amount of ground to make up after missing tonight's pre-game face decoration. A Friday with twice as much face paint ought to do just about right.
