Scholastic Scrimmage continues practice

Rylan Cagle, Guest Reporter • December 20, 2023 • 125 Views
The Scholastic Scrimmage team pays attention to team adviser Jennifer Lowe as she gets them ready for their next competition.

This year’s Scholastic Scrimmage team had a successful season. They started their season in early September and packed things up late October, making it to regionals. Despite their season ending, they still meet every Tuesday in room A213. They practice all year to be prepared for their next season.

¨I get out of school all day, and I really enjoy that. Just being a part of the team makes you feel like knowledge that you gain isn’t going to waste, “Senior Ryan Longstreth said.

Anyone interested in getting more information about the team or considering joining, can talk to adviser Jennifer Lowe in room A213.

Rylan Cagle, Reporter
I've always loved to write, and after last year's Intro to Pub class, it inspired me to join the newspaper staff. I am a junior here at the high school, and love to learn. Outside of school, I love to be active, from playing pickup basketball, to playing disc golf, and even doing some pickle balling. I also love music. My favorite artists are Tyler, The Creator, Frank Ocean, and Steve Lacy.
