By: Sammie Howard 


Professional athletes ballroom dancing competing to get the well know MirrorBall Trophy! The 26th season of dancing with the stars in a mini season only taking place over the course of four weeks. Adam Rippon, Arike Ogunbowale, Chris Mazdzer, Jamie Anderson, Jennie Finch Daigle, Johnny Damon, Josh Norman, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Mirai Nagasu and Tonya Harding will dance there way through the completion with the professional partners. 

The ABC television series hosted by Tom Bergeron fallows around the top stars while they work hard to learn and be judges on complicated ballroom dance routines in hope to win the mirror ball trophy. The series that first premiered in 2001, has millions of fan all around the world attracted to the funny video packages and emotional dances.

The intense competition is fun to watch with the entire family no matter what ages. My family and I have been watching this show for as long as I can remember. I remember one conflict that I had with my mom and aunt was about our different opinions of dancers. This fun filled television series will defiantly put a smile on you face.

Guest post by rising sophomore Sandra Thein, photos courtesy of Kelly Ryu and Emilie Kono I love those college YouTube videos: “2018 COLLEGE DECISION REACTIONS - IVY LEAGUE AND MORE!” The enthusiasm and gratitude the applicants radiate upon hearing where they will be spending the next four years of their lives is inspiring and motivating for a high school student like me.  I'm also inspired by students closer to home. Graduating senior Emilie Kono is a student athlete with a love for science and music. "Bo th in and outside of school," says Kono, "my family, friends, coaches, teachers and mentors have all been incredibly supportive in pushing me to reach my full potential; I can’t thank them enough!

Pictures contribute to the overall perception one may have about an article.

If someone misses one game they feel like they missed out; this is where my job

Frankie Lopez Profile By: Alexander Rozas When you picture a star soccer player’s life, you might imagine them attractive, popular and smart. However, soccer star Francisco Lopez was depressed, bullied and during his professional career was riddled with sports anxiety. Now he helps kids who are going through the same mental problems he did. Lopez remembers that the peak of his soccer career was in his senior year of high school where McMinnville High School made the finals. “Before that, not many people came to the games, but during the finals over 4,000 people came to support the team,” said Lopez. The game ended with McMinnville beating the powerhouse Jesuit 8-7 in a penalty shootout. It was a dream come true. “Winning the State Championship was the best feeling of my life and I haven’t been able to replicate that feeling or experience,” said Lopez. “It really brought the community together.” Lopez ended up bringing the trophy home with him and slept with
