Campbell Hanna: Thank you for meeting with us today Sir Winsalot, my first question is what’s your daily life like?

Sir Winsalot: I start the day eating pancakes with Mr. Assaf. Then I put the cones out for carpool while getting the coffee ready for Officer Chris and crew. [Then] helping facilities take care of the field and stands. Then there’s rolling up the t-shirts before games and practicing donuts on my scooter. You know…. The basics. 

CH: So how do you get excited or hyped up for games? 

SW: High fives! Getting all the students to punch the shield!

CH: What is your favorite part about being Sir Winsalot? 

SW: Still the high fives!

CH: Why are you Sir Winsalot; why do you do it?

SW: I’m the defender of the castle! What else would I do?

CH: How do you always stay in character? 

SW: I do not understand the question.

CH: What is your favorite Pace sport to cheer at? 

SW: The ones with Pace athletes, especially during playoffs!

CH: Do you have to practice before games?

SW: Like high fives? Yeah, I practice those all the time. 

CH: What is your least favorite school we play? 

SW: I guess the ones that are poor sports. Pace Athletes work hard to be honorable whether we win or lose. I cannot stand schools that do not do the same. Also, Lovett.

CH: Do you have a secret talent? 

SW: I have a knack for pre-made signs. [Holds up pre-made sign] Sadly, I can’t juggle. 

CH: What is your favorite football theme or student section theme? 

SW: Costume night is my favorite. I wish I could participate, but I have to be in uniform. 

CH: Sir Winsalot before you came to Pace what were you doing? 

SW: I was born in 1958, the same year as Pace Academy. Been here ever since. 

CH: Thank you again for meeting with me Sir Winsalot!
