Mr.
Mecham
Thank you for helping organize the announcements
basketball game. It was enjoyable for all, and a fantastic venue for our young
and not so young stars to showcase their talent.
Congratulations
To the Class of 2014 for bringing home the
Lombardi Trophy again, and to all the single ladies who just put another ring
on it.

In honor of throwback Thursday
(yesterday), I would just like to mention that the Naked Brothers Band was
super sick.
Mock
Trial
The opening night of the tournament was
last night, and it continues next Tuesday, Thursday, and Saturday. Let Mr. Del
Rio know if you want to attend.

Spirit Week Recap

1. Sophomore girls sleep in
yoga pants.
2. No teacher is allowed to
give Uniform Violations for tanks on America day because it infringes on an
individual’s Second Amendment right to bare arms.
3. We should have trainers at
the next Power Bowl ready to perform concussion testing in case someone like
Liv gets decked.
4. Liv got decked.
5. Everyone went to the
Girls’ Basketball game on Friday night because they are a bunch of ballers.
6. Ms. Roche does not only
travel off the court.
7. The seniors exhibited
their years of premiere tugging experience in the annual tug of war
competition. They finished proudly as the inexperienced juniors looked up
shamelessly from the ground.
8. The Class of 2014 ran
Bishop’s, picking up a key win in the Power Bowl. Sierra chucked up the Duceys
with two touchdown grabs and Cat added another to seal the deal against the
Juniors.
9. Mr. Beamer got T’d up for
getting too hyphy.
LoL for CHARITY!?
By: Thomas Higginson (and Brian Kim)
With two clicks of my mouse, I found
myself amid my comrades on a battlefield wisped with the taunts of my enemies.
A place where charity begets video game skirmishes amongst friends; where I hear
the cries of mine enemies whilst they flee in fear of my spinning axes towards
the warm embrace of their mothers. I’m speaking, of course, about League of
Legends 4 Charity, the first San Diego wide, non-profit, tournament exclusively
for high schoolers. If you’re considering putting down this article because a
computer game is ‘nerdy’, shame on your judgmental self. For I only make it
sound a lot more ‘nerdy’ than it actually is.
In association with PCI, BK, Christopher Voss, and Nikhil Palanki have
organized this tournament to raise money for PCI’s outright program to India.
This is the first year the tournament was introduced and already the league had
18 teams, or 90 players, signed up to participate; coming from all of the
following high schools: Bishop’s, CCA, Torrey Pines, Cathedral, Mira Mesa,
Calvin Christian, Scripps Ranch, Country Day, and Westview.
I’m sure you’re aware of PCI (Project Concern International) and the
amazing charity work they do, and have done (an example being Bishop’s India
trip). However, if you’re anything like I am, then you’re probably looking for
simple ways to get involved and help the community. Fortunately, BK,
Christopher Voss, and Nikhil Palanki have organized a San Diego wide League of
Legends tournament, exclusively for high schoolers. Although you may not play
the computer game, or have even heard of it, you can support the tournament by
going to the live finals held at Grand Del Mar Resort’s Club M on March 9th, or
donating to the tournament because all profits go towards PCI’s outright
program to India. There will be free food, and even give away prizes for lucky
attendees! If your intrigue surpasses more than that is expected, please visit league.gaming4charity.org.
It’s for a good cause, you’ll meet new people, and it’ll be fun. Don’t
be shy.
