Alli Little, Associate Editor

Hello! I’m Alli, and I am one of the associate editors for the AAHS Mountain Echo. I’ve been in the journalism staff for three years now. I’ve always loved having the freedom to write since 3rd grade English class. I play club soccer and soccer for our school. I am a center midfielder and I hope to go on to play in college. Some of my hobbies include: running, meditating, reading, and hanging out with my friends. I hope to go into the medical field when I am older. I hope I can be a great reporter for you! Thanks!

Other soccer players who didn't make the varsity team still travel to the game to support the team as ball boy. The team will hope to have a better result next year.

They work hard to be the first team to get to the ball.

The boys worked hard to keep the ball out of our goal.

Other defenders took the goal kicks and other set plays. They worked as a team.

The atmosphere of the soccer game was good. Lots of Altoona fans were there.

Our school teams always play hard to the very last minute. The boys did not give up.

Our soccer team defended for most of the game. The ball was in our half for a while but our soccer team did their best to not let State College score.

The few times the ball was in State College's half of the field we connected passes well. The final score did not reflect how hard our team played.

Freshman goalie Luke Mitchell starts district game when the regular varsity goalie gets hurt. Mitchell saved lots of goals that game.

Senior captain Ethan Little directs the team throughout the whole game even in the very last minutes. He is proud of the four years he has spent playing for the school.

Planning for the day Robert Hofer completes some tasks for his classes. Hofer has been a resident of Altoona his entire life.
