Have you ever wondered what songs to listen to when you need confidence?
Based on these interviews, here’s what Lake Highlands Wildcats have to say about their favorite hype songs or genres.

Phoebe Smith, 12
Psycho Killer by Talking Heads
“I listen to rock music, like the 70s and 80s, because I’m an old soul. Also, because my parents indoctrinated me, and therefore, I like it.”
Hayden Frazier, 10
