Bringing swag to sports

As teachers begin to wrap up their classes, the overhead announcements come on and finally second period is over: “Would all teachers please turn to channel 78 for this morning’s announcements”. It’s Friday morning and students begin crowding around TVs in the lounge, classrooms and the library to watch.

Soon enough, the Rams Sports Report comes on screen, along with the much anticipated announcements of Brendon Baker and Taylor Wilson. For these two sportscasters, announcing sports on live camera looks natural. But where did these two boys come from?

Welcome to the club

With over 20 varsity sport programs, NCHS is home to hundreds of athletes. And while many will go on to play in college, the vast majority will not. For those who love playing the game but don’t find being a member of an official college team an option, club sports provide a fun and competitive alternative.

Seniors stuck in two places at once

As most colleges recommend filing deposits by May 1st, seniors are officially ending the college process. For senior Rebecca Evenson, sending in her deposit was a reality check. “The whole idea of me going to college really hit me when I sent in my deposit,” she said. “I finally understood that this is my future, and whatever I do will basically affect me for the rest of my life.”

Maybe it’s my mother’s southern roots or maybe it’s the fact that I’ve lived in Ye Olde NC for the past eleven years, but I grew up with a plethora of books about manners, cotillion, and Walter Schalk’s Ballroom Dance Class (who didn’t love getting their feet stomped on or waltzing with their arch nemesis?). Chivalry might be dead, but I’m definitely not the only one in NCHS who thinks about manners.
