Crowning of a new Queen, recognition for a pair of longtime teachers, an upset win by the freshmen in Powder Puff football … Escalon’s 2014 Fall Homecoming had it all. Julie Victorino took home the crown as the new Homecoming Queen, while teachers Rusty Fachner and Gary Ball – both of whom are retiring at the end of the current school year – were honored as Homecoming Grand Marshals. Festivities played out all week on the campus of Escalon High with a Monday night rally and barbecue, special dress up days, Powder Puff competition on Wednesday night, the downtown parade on Friday afternoon, and then the Homecoming football game and queen coronation on Friday night. (Look for Powder Puff game coverage in the Oct. 1 issue of The Times.) The varsity football team defeated Liberty Ranch on the gridiron (See story and photos in Sports, Page A15) and Grand Marshals Fachner and Ball were also introduced to the Homecoming Crowd as they were driven around the track in the back of a pick-up truck, Fachner armed with a golf club and Ball with some fishing gear, ready to head out into retirement.
