There was royalty walking around the midway at the West Lafayette Homecoming this year . Homecoming Queen Maddie Larrison is a sophomore at Ridgewood . “ Last year I was queen first attendant in 2022 and 2019 junior queen . I run track and cross country , and I am a cheerleader . If I attend 15 festivals , I can get a $ 500 scholarship .” Alaena Huff , homecoming queen first attendant this year , said , “ I have been doing this since I was 4 years old . I have always wanted to be queen . Two years ago I was junior queen . The year before that , I was mini queen . The year before that , I was junior miss and I was junior miss again , and somewhere in there I was attendant . This is my first year trying for queen , and I was first attendant this year . I am going to keep doing it until I am queen .”
