Renee Burke Hi-Lights Newspaper Adviser 2000 S. Mills Ave. Orlando, FL 32806
Dear Mrs. Burke:
I am aware that Hi-Lights newspaper is in search of a new DPS/ Mg. Editor with experience in web design, as well as an individual with a hard working attitude who is willing to contribute to the success of a publication. If this is the case, then please accept my resume for your review and consideration for filling this spot on next year’s staff.
After my first year on staff, I feel that the exposure to the publications industry has helped me in many ways. For one, it has drastically increased my vocabulary and use of correct grammar. It has also taught me life lessons that I do not believe I would have learned without being a part of this great publication. I believe what I take away from this experience will be extremely useful throughout the rest of my life.
Designing is by far my preference in a publication. I enjoy designing as a hobby, so I will always have a hand full of ideas to take into consideration when in search for new layouts. If I am given a chance to become the DPS/ Mg. Editor it would provide an opportunity to test my design skills with an award winning publications staff. I know I am capable of bringing creative thinking that will benefit the redesign of the paper, as we continue to produce the best publication for our students and community.
The following resume demonstrates my background well. I would very much appreciate the opportunity to fill this job as the new DPS/ Mg. Editor for the Hi-Lights Newspaper staff. Thank you for your review and consideration.
Respectfully yours,
Joshua Halloran

Before my first year of taking journalism I thought it was a walk in the park, but they say “don’t judge a book by its cover” for a reason. This year has taught me many things I will never forget varying from career goals to design and layout rules. Journalism is something I enjoy a lot, I love reading the paper but it feels even better knowing that you helped put it together and this class has provided me with that feeling. I was never an outstanding writer but with journalism it helped me drastically improve my vocabulary and grammar which has not only helped in this class but also in many other classes I participated in. When I was young I always read the author, Mike Lupica and always wanted to be like him, a sports writer/reporter when I grew older. Taking the newspaper class gave me the chance to do just that, it gave me chances to write about sports that I enjoy and informing our audience about upcoming events that were taking place at our school. This was my first year participating in any type of club like journalism so it took time to get used to. I wasn’t one of the top writers on staff, but I feel like I have greatly improved as the year progressed. Journalism has definitely taken a special place in my life, every time I look at a newspaper or any type of publication I look at it differently than I had before this class. I look at the design of the paper and the different layouts each publication uses. Sure, at times it was difficult, there were times I wanted to just give up but I couldn’t do that to everyone because as a publication we are a team, if one fails we all fail and I wouldn’t ever let that happen. Even if I don’t go down the road of journalism, I will always have the knowledge and life skills that I was taught throughout this class. These are things I can apply to my life or any type of job that I pursue.
Being on an award winning staff like this one has been an honor but also has been a huge learning experience for myself. I honestly never thought I could learn this much from a course but with a great instructor and experienced editors, it became possible. Being a staffer I got to see and participate behind the scenes of what it takes to publish a newspaper like Hi-lights. Ever since the first time I glanced at the Hi-Lights newspaper I made it a priority of mine to become one of the staffers. I was always interested in the process of how a newspaper comes together, and now that I had an opportunity too experience this I feel complete as an individual. Newspaper is way more than just a class its a lifestyle, you’re either all in or all out. Everything that you learn in this course also has a life lesson attached, we just have to figure out what that is. The most difficult part about newspaper for myself was probably time management. I would always get distracted doing something else and before I knew it the bell would ring, or deadlines would appear closer and closer. But in all seriousness this has been my favorite year of high school by far and that is because of my 5th period family. This class has been my life for the past year and I enjoyed every single moment of it. I hope I get to still be a part of it for my senior year of high school to continue the journey.
I feel like the NBA All-Star game story ‘Orlando hosts 61st
All-Star Game’ had to be one my best pieces of work this year.
I think if you write about something that you enjoy or an
activity you participate in and have a knowledge on, it makes
the piece easier to compose. If you can relate to what is going
in the story it gives many different angles to write about
opposed to being given a topic you know not much about.
Not only the fact that this was one of the biggest professional
basketball events of the year, taking place just in my back
yard, but also I know more about basketball than I probably
know about myself, it is my life and that is what made this
story fun to write. This story took a while to get going but
after the first couple edits, I felt that it finished to be my top
piece of the year.

Childhood sailing memory resurfaces
By DELANEE BOGAN
Skimming across the glistening water of Lake Conway with the whistling wind in her ear, sophomore Gretchen Gutierrez sails alongside her father. Sailing has become more than just a sport for Gutierrez.
“I feel really relaxed [when I go sailing]. It’s nice to be at peace when I am out on the water. It’s exciting because there is always something new to learn. It takes both physical and mental strength and lots of patience,” Gutierrez said.
Gutierrez has only been sailing six months but Gretchen’s father has been sailing since before Gretchen was born. Sailing helps them spend time together.
Two years ago her father restored an 18’ Hobie Cat to teach her the skills of sailing. Gutierrez has grown up sailing with her father.
“I love spending time with my dad when we sail together. It builds teamwork because I take control of the jib [the foremost part of the sail] and my dad takes control of the main sail. But I like the feeling of accomplishment
when I sail on my own,” Gutierrez said.While sailing leads Gutierrez
to feeling accomplished, it can be a dangerous sport. One has to learn how to deal with wind patterns or else the boat can flip over. According to theoceans.net, there are several ways sailing can go wrong. It depends on numerous factors including sizes and impact of waves and extreme weather that could ultimately lead to capsizing. Gutierrez avoids most of these factors because she sails on Lake Conway.
“I personally don’t consider sailing dangerous. So far, Gretchen sails on Lake Conway within our eyesight. As she becomes more competent she can challenge herself to different conditions based on her level of confidence,” Annette Gutierrez said.
Sailing is a sport that depends on the weather to determine when the right time to sail is. Before sailing, one must check the forecast to make sure the weather is clear while on the water. The best time to sail is between October and February because it is not the rainy season of the year.
“Sailing [is a sport that] requires patience, anticipation, readiness and multitasking. Being challenged under different weather conditions will be
something that she can apply to life in general, and will continue to shape her into the woman she will become,” A. Gutierrez said.
Although Gutierrez has not had as much time on the water as she would like due to participating in soccer and school work, she plans to continue to learn from her father and increase her skills by sailing on her own more often.
“Gretchen can continue to acquire various levels of sailing skills throughout her life. She could join a sailing club in college and she could ultimately do a bare boat charter with friends or family in the future,” A. Gutierrez said.
There are different sailing clubs located throughout Orlando. There is a 15 hour comprehensive course at the Lake Fairview Marina that teaches one the skills of sailing and allows one to develop at one’s own pace. One can go to lakeviewmarina.com to make an appointment and to receive further information about sailing.
“[Sailing has] opened my eyes to a much bigger world rather than limiting yourself to what’s in front of you. It’s all about the effort and what you want to do. You have to have passion and drive for it,” Gutierrez said.
SAIL IT. Gliding across Lake Conway, sophomore Gretchen Gurierrez sails alongside her father. “I love sailing because I’m an adventurist and it is a real thrill,” Gutierrez said. Gutierrez grew up watching her father sail and often fell alseep on the trampoline of the boat.

Orlando hosts 61st All-Star Weekend
By JOSHUA HALLORAN
For the second time in 20 years, Orlando will host the NBA All-Star Weekend at the Amway Center beginning Feb. 26.
The last time Orlando received such national publicity in the NBA was when Dwight Howard lead the Magic to its second NBA finals apperance in 2009.
The All-Star Weekend consists of the top players in the league competing in multiple events such as the Foot Locker 3-Point Shootout, the Sprite Slam Dunk contest and the end of the event is the 2012 All-Star game.
A single day’s ticket costs a minimum of $500 for a “nosebleed” seat. For fans who cannot afford a ticket, the city has created the NBA Jam Session at the Convention Center to provide the opportunity to get up close and personal. The NBA Jam Session is where fans can shoot, slam, dribble and drive all day; they can also compete against friends in skill challenges and receive autographs from the current
All-Star players, Hall of Fame legends and new rookies of the league.
The Jam Session tickets are on sale, prices range from $12 to $20. There will be about 30 different basketball courts with clinics, giveaways and prizes.
The weekend is supposed to add more than $100 million to the local economy. Local hotels, restaurants and venues will benefit most from the event. Local hotels will experience both short and long term benefits of hosting such a high caliber event.
“[I think] that it will bring many
families to the city and a lot of famous people who will spend big bucks during the weekend,” junior Rayshawn Moise said.
Not only are hotel’s economies increasing but also a large percentage of money will be spent on I-Drive restaurants and family attractions.
“[I think the All-Star Weekend] will benefit the city. The games will be broadcasted on national television (ESPN) for a big event; also having all the all-stars in town will bring publicity to the city,” junior Matthew
Wasson said. David Stern, the commissioner of
the National Basketball Association, had long promised to hold the marquee game in Orlando.
“I think it will increase the tourism rate and people will come back to Orlando because they liked what they saw,” Wasson said.
The city built the new Amway Center with a price tag of $480 million.
“Orlando deserves to hold the All-Star Weekend. They just built the new arena hoping that they would get an event with such a caliber as the All-Star weekend and look what happened.This is just a beginning for the Magic,” Moise said.
Voting for the East and West all-star teams can be done on nba.com. The teams consist of 11 players and five starters. Orlando’s own Dwight Howard is leading the all-star voting.
As of today the leaders for the voting are Chicago’s Derrick Rose, Dwayne Wade and Lebron James from the Miami Heat, last year’s scoring champion was Kevin Durant of the Oklahoma City Thunder and Dirk Nowitzki of the World Champion Dallas Mavericks.
FIRST ALL-STAR WEEKEND IN 20
YEARS
[I think the NBA All-Star Weekend] is the best All-Star Game in all of sports. The players put on a show for the fans at home and at the arena; they really interact with them during the entire weekend. - rayshawn moise, junior
HOBBY TEACHES LIFE SKILLS
The piece that I feel could use a little more work to it would
have to be “Horoscopes become a daily routine”. I feel this
story could of been a really interesting story too write
because there are many facets to Horoscopes. Since this was
my first editorial type story to write, it took me a while to
get the right angle for what I thought would be a good story.
If I had a chance to rewrite this story, one thing I definitely
would change would be to get more than one student to talk
about their experience with horoscopes. I would have done
more research and also would have found more students to
feature. I learned that it is important to also find out more
information about the topic and not just write off prior
knowledge. From the first copy of this story it definitely
improved by the final print copy, but yet it did not meet my
standards for a great story.
This was my first year with the Hi-Lights newspaper staff and
I enjoyed every single minute of it. My role was a staffer and I
feel that I did fulfill that task this year. Being on staff is special
because you are an integral part of a team and on a team
everyone contributes their own way, and this year I did that.
I’d like to think I am one of the more experienced staffers
with the InDesign and Photoshop programs but I didn’t really
get to show my skills this year on staff. So with that said I had
to contribute in different ways. As a writer I performed to the
best of my ability. As the year progressed, I started to become
more responsible for my stories and gained knowledge on
what it took to be successful in this class. For example at the
beginning of the year my first two stories ‘Boys race to finish
line’ and ‘Varsity Briefs: Seasons come to close’ were just
like any other story with no angle; but by the end of the year
my stories such as ‘Orlando hosts 61st NBA All-Star Game-’
started to have meaning to me and I gave them a proper angle
that they deserved.
My most difficult hardship I had to face this year was that
I was a “newbie”. It took me time to get used to the process
on how things worked and what I could and could not do on
staff or in the paper. As the year progressed I learned that
newspaper is mainly time management; you have to manage
how you spend your time and what you do with your time;
you have to be working on the right thing at the right time.
Each person is so important to making the paper happen, so if
one of us falls behind than so does the whole staff. Overall this
year was a learning experience for myself, I now know that my
time management needs to improve drastically and that I can’t
be messing around in class and get my work done when it
needs to be done. I am committed to improve in this area next
year on newspaper, as well as other aspects of my life.
At the mid-term my answer to the question “What
is your greatest weakness?” was time management,
and I believe that I still have a lot of improvement
to make in this area. I have struggled with time
management ever since freshman year and it is
something that I know I can not continue if I want
to be successful in life and work on a newspaper
staff. I have the newspaper to thank for keeping
this at the forefront, because when you are on a
staff with deadlines to meet every 3 months, time
management can play a major part in the role of
success. If one staffer fails to turn assignments in
on time it can undermine the chances of the staff
going to press on time. I have finally recognized
my flaws and have started to distinguish their
existence, and realize how critical making changes
in this area will be for success in High School and
my for future. I don’t like to let people down, and I
will ensure that this is a priority for my senior year.

By JOSH HALLORANWith temperatures dropping and
the holiday decorations appearing on doorsteps, winter is nearing. Winter sports have had tryouts, but fall seasons are not yet complete. The end of the schedule is a key part of the seasons. There are the district games, rivalry games and metro/district tournaments which all teams work for the entire season: to become the state champions.
Regional tournament insight
Coming to the end of the season the girls varsity volleyball team finished 11-16. While it wasn’t the season they envisioned, they did earn a second place finish in Districts, behind top seed Dr. Phillips. Even though they lost, 3-1, they gave the Panthers a tough fight, playing four games (25-18, 22-25, 25-21, 26-24). Freshman Oakley Attaway had nine kills in the match against Dr.Phillips. The team will still play in the Regional tournament against Olympia High School on Nov. 2 at
Olympia.
Team chases goalsBoth boys and girls cross country
teams have been competing at high levels. In the DeLand Invitational on Nov. 19, six of the girls placed in the top 100. Senior Heather Classe placed third in the meet with a time of 19:41, and sophomore Burkhardt Helfrich placed 16th in the meet with a time of 17:19. The boys and girls teams set goals that are soon to be reached, such as competing for the State race on Nov. 19 in Dade City.
Young team reaches expectations
With a hard fought season, the boys golf team placed 6th out of 12 teams in the district tournament on Oct. 17, at North Shore Country Club.
“We had a lot of first year players with little experience in high school golf and we were not able to compete with the veteran teams in our district,” coach Todd Gregory said.
Finishing the season 3-16, the team faced a tough loss to West Orange and
Timber Creek in 18 hole matches. “This season was a re-building year
and hopefully some of the returning players will be able to improve with the experience they gained this season,” Coach Gregory said.
Swim team finishes strongThe girls’ team place 3rd overall in
the Metro Conference Meet, and the boys’ placed 5th overall. Chelsie Britt, junior was District champion in the 200 individual medley and 100 backstroke. Junior, Nichole Clayton, spohomore, Julia Hester, Britt and sophomore Eleanor Clark placed 2nd in the 200 medley and 3rd in the 200 freestyle relays. For the boys, junior, Brendan Ellixson placed 5th in the 500 freestyle. If the team places in the top two, at Regionals on Nov. 3 they will compete in the state tournament on Nov. 10.
Team strikes out competition
The boys and girls teams both bowled in the District match on Nov. 1 at Boardwalk Bowl. Girls finished in 5th out of 12 teams and boys 8th out of 12 in the district tournament. Senior Ashley Cassidy qualified for states.

GIRLS MAINTAIN POSITIVITY
BOYS RACE TO FINISH LINE
By JOSH HALLORAN
At the sound of the gun, the boys set their pace for the rest of the race. The team looks to showcase their talents at the Hagerty Invitational in Oviedo on Oct. 8.
The boys had their first meet on Sept. 9, at the Déjà Vu Invitational in Tampa. Their top runner was senior Charles Collins who placed 42nd with a time of 17:32.80.
A muddy course made the race more difficult, causing some of the runners to not finish.
Sophomore Davis Coleman did not finish the Déjà Vu Invitational, but set a season high of 21:09.00 in the boys 5000 meter run at the DeLand
By MOLLY WALLACEThe heat-ridden summer practices
ended and are being replaced by two-a-days. While the girls struggle to manage showering in the locker room before school and finishing homework after long workouts, they continue to focus on the goal of a good season.
“I work during the week, so managing time before and after school is tough,” senior Heather Classe said. “I often sacrifice my weekends for cross country.”
Classe says that her co-captain, senior Katherine Burns, also works after school and feels the pressure of dealing with multiple commitments, but the love for the sport remains.
“Proper attitude and commitment are the two most important ingredients,” coach Paul Katauskus said. “You have to love to run and be willing to everyday.”
The first meet, on Sept. 9, was the
Deja Vu Invitational in Tampa where four girls, sophomore Alexandra Meneses, junior Michelle Duncan, Burns and Classe placed in the top 100.
“The toughest part of races is pushing yourself when you want to stop,” Burns said.
At the meet, Burns ran the three mile race in 22:29.20, placing 68th, while Classe ran it in 19:53.5, placing 6th.
On Sept. 17, at the DeLand Invitational, six girls placed in the top 100. Classe ranked third in the meet, but first for the team, running 19:41, and freshman Cassandra Katchum ranked sixth in the meet, second for the team, running 20:02.
However, the varsity girls did lose a key runner, senior Caroline Coleman, due to a stress fracture, one of the many injuries running athletes can face.
“I’ve seen a lot of stress fractures and shin splints,” Paul Katauskus said. “Dealing with injuries is frustrating as a coach.”
On Sept. 24, at the UF Mountain Dew Invitational in Gainesville, three
Invitational meet on Sept. 17. He placed 42nd.
“With being a two year veteran, I feel as if I can show the young ones how to train hard, and race hard,” Coleman said.
With a lot of young talent and few upperclassmen, three year veteran, junior Nathaniel Reiff looks forward to an exceptional season
“For the returning runners we look forward to another season; we’re all determined to make states,” Reiff said.
As the runners look to compete at high stakes, the training is extensive. The boys practice every day after school rotating from the weight room, to the pool, and to the track where they run up to 10 miles a day.
“The team as a whole has been training twice as hard to live up to its stature as a top Florida team,” Reiff
said.“We’re more
of a team this year; at practices we run together; we’re not all scattered around,” junior Adam Laxton said.
Laxton ran a 18:49.00 at the DeLand Invitational meet on Sept. 17. He ran his personal best all season while placing 7th out of 26 on the team.
The previous meet the boys raced in on Sept. 30, at the flrunners.com Invitational in Titusville. The boys were lead by Collins with a time of 17:20.26 who placed 17th.
girls placed in the top 100: Classe, Ketchum and freshman Claire Collins. Classe ran the three mile race in 20:03, Ketchum ran it in 20:54 and Collins ran it in 21:37.
“The team is doing good. We have the potential to go to states,” Burns said. “We all have to work hard to get there.”
Classe claims that she and the team keep a positive attitude because the belief that with the team’s constant placement in the top 100 at meets, they have a chance to be placed in states. This will not be decided until regionals.

N17. Briefs writing. ‘Varsity Briefs: Season come to close’ Page 17, November 4, 2011.
I would like this piece to represent myself because I feel this exemplifies my skills on brief writing. Writing a brief story is different than a normal story, because you have less room to work with when you are giving the details. You have to kind of sum everything up in a short and sweet 200 worded story. The reader gets a quick glimpse on what is happening or going on in the story, without all the extra details.
N9. Sports News. ‘Boys race to finish line’ Page 20, October 7, 2011.
I would like this piece to represent me in the field of sports writing because this was one of my top sports stories I feel I wrote all year. This story gives all the facts needed for a average sports story and also tells a good story about the track team. The reader gets to feel as if he or she was a part of this team.

I would like this piece to represent me for a news feature piece. I feel that this piece tells a story about an individual who uses horoscopes every day of their life. It gives a vibe that makes the reader think about horoscopes and think about their opinion on them.

GIRLS MAINTAIN POSITIVITY
BOYS RACE TO FINISH LINE
By JOSH HALLORAN
At the sound of the gun, the boys set their pace for the rest of the race. The team looks to showcase their talents at the Hagerty Invitational in Oviedo on Oct. 8.
The boys had their first meet on Sept. 9, at the Déjà Vu Invitational in Tampa. Their top runner was senior Charles Collins who placed 42nd with a time of 17:32.80.
A muddy course made the race more difficult, causing some of the runners to not finish.
Sophomore Davis Coleman did not finish the Déjà Vu Invitational, but set a season high of 21:09.00 in the boys 5000 meter run at the DeLand
By MOLLY WALLACEThe heat-ridden summer practices
ended and are being replaced by two-a-days. While the girls struggle to manage showering in the locker room before school and finishing homework after long workouts, they continue to focus on the goal of a good season.
“I work during the week, so managing time before and after school is tough,” senior Heather Classe said. “I often sacrifice my weekends for cross country.”
Classe says that her co-captain, senior Katherine Burns, also works after school and feels the pressure of dealing with multiple commitments, but the love for the sport remains.
“Proper attitude and commitment are the two most important ingredients,” coach Paul Katauskus said. “You have to love to run and be willing to everyday.”
The first meet, on Sept. 9, was the
Deja Vu Invitational in Tampa where four girls, sophomore Alexandra Meneses, junior Michelle Duncan, Burns and Classe placed in the top 100.
“The toughest part of races is pushing yourself when you want to stop,” Burns said.
At the meet, Burns ran the three mile race in 22:29.20, placing 68th, while Classe ran it in 19:53.5, placing 6th.
On Sept. 17, at the DeLand Invitational, six girls placed in the top 100. Classe ranked third in the meet, but first for the team, running 19:41, and freshman Cassandra Katchum ranked sixth in the meet, second for the team, running 20:02.
However, the varsity girls did lose a key runner, senior Caroline Coleman, due to a stress fracture, one of the many injuries running athletes can face.
“I’ve seen a lot of stress fractures and shin splints,” Paul Katauskus said. “Dealing with injuries is frustrating as a coach.”
On Sept. 24, at the UF Mountain Dew Invitational in Gainesville, three
Invitational meet on Sept. 17. He placed 42nd.
“With being a two year veteran, I feel as if I can show the young ones how to train hard, and race hard,” Coleman said.
With a lot of young talent and few upperclassmen, three year veteran, junior Nathaniel Reiff looks forward to an exceptional season
“For the returning runners we look forward to another season; we’re all determined to make states,” Reiff said.
As the runners look to compete at high stakes, the training is extensive. The boys practice every day after school rotating from the weight room, to the pool, and to the track where they run up to 10 miles a day.
“The team as a whole has been training twice as hard to live up to its stature as a top Florida team,” Reiff
said.“We’re more
of a team this year; at practices we run together; we’re not all scattered around,” junior Adam Laxton said.
Laxton ran a 18:49.00 at the DeLand Invitational meet on Sept. 17. He ran his personal best all season while placing 7th out of 26 on the team.
The previous meet the boys raced in on Sept. 30, at the flrunners.com Invitational in Titusville. The boys were lead by Collins with a time of 17:20.26 who placed 17th.
girls placed in the top 100: Classe, Ketchum and freshman Claire Collins. Classe ran the three mile race in 20:03, Ketchum ran it in 20:54 and Collins ran it in 21:37.
“The team is doing good. We have the potential to go to states,” Burns said. “We all have to work hard to get there.”
Classe claims that she and the team keep a positive attitude because the belief that with the team’s constant placement in the top 100 at meets, they have a chance to be placed in states. This will not be decided until regionals.

GIRLS MAINTAIN POSITIVITY
BOYS RACE TO FINISH LINE
By JOSH HALLORAN
At the sound of the gun, the boys set their pace for the rest of the race. The team looks to showcase their talents at the Hagerty Invitational in Oviedo on Oct. 8.
The boys had their first meet on Sept. 9, at the Déjà Vu Invitational in Tampa. Their top runner was senior Charles Collins who placed 42nd with a time of 17:32.80.
A muddy course made the race more difficult, causing some of the runners to not finish.
Sophomore Davis Coleman did not finish the Déjà Vu Invitational, but set a season high of 21:09.00 in the boys 5000 meter run at the DeLand
By MOLLY WALLACEThe heat-ridden summer practices
ended and are being replaced by two-a-days. While the girls struggle to manage showering in the locker room before school and finishing homework after long workouts, they continue to focus on the goal of a good season.
“I work during the week, so managing time before and after school is tough,” senior Heather Classe said. “I often sacrifice my weekends for cross country.”
Classe says that her co-captain, senior Katherine Burns, also works after school and feels the pressure of dealing with multiple commitments, but the love for the sport remains.
“Proper attitude and commitment are the two most important ingredients,” coach Paul Katauskus said. “You have to love to run and be willing to everyday.”
The first meet, on Sept. 9, was the
Deja Vu Invitational in Tampa where four girls, sophomore Alexandra Meneses, junior Michelle Duncan, Burns and Classe placed in the top 100.
“The toughest part of races is pushing yourself when you want to stop,” Burns said.
At the meet, Burns ran the three mile race in 22:29.20, placing 68th, while Classe ran it in 19:53.5, placing 6th.
On Sept. 17, at the DeLand Invitational, six girls placed in the top 100. Classe ranked third in the meet, but first for the team, running 19:41, and freshman Cassandra Katchum ranked sixth in the meet, second for the team, running 20:02.
However, the varsity girls did lose a key runner, senior Caroline Coleman, due to a stress fracture, one of the many injuries running athletes can face.
“I’ve seen a lot of stress fractures and shin splints,” Paul Katauskus said. “Dealing with injuries is frustrating as a coach.”
On Sept. 24, at the UF Mountain Dew Invitational in Gainesville, three
Invitational meet on Sept. 17. He placed 42nd.
“With being a two year veteran, I feel as if I can show the young ones how to train hard, and race hard,” Coleman said.
With a lot of young talent and few upperclassmen, three year veteran, junior Nathaniel Reiff looks forward to an exceptional season
“For the returning runners we look forward to another season; we’re all determined to make states,” Reiff said.
As the runners look to compete at high stakes, the training is extensive. The boys practice every day after school rotating from the weight room, to the pool, and to the track where they run up to 10 miles a day.
“The team as a whole has been training twice as hard to live up to its stature as a top Florida team,” Reiff
said.“We’re more
of a team this year; at practices we run together; we’re not all scattered around,” junior Adam Laxton said.
Laxton ran a 18:49.00 at the DeLand Invitational meet on Sept. 17. He ran his personal best all season while placing 7th out of 26 on the team.
The previous meet the boys raced in on Sept. 30, at the flrunners.com Invitational in Titusville. The boys were lead by Collins with a time of 17:20.26 who placed 17th.
girls placed in the top 100: Classe, Ketchum and freshman Claire Collins. Classe ran the three mile race in 20:03, Ketchum ran it in 20:54 and Collins ran it in 21:37.
“The team is doing good. We have the potential to go to states,” Burns said. “We all have to work hard to get there.”
Classe claims that she and the team keep a positive attitude because the belief that with the team’s constant placement in the top 100 at meets, they have a chance to be placed in states. This will not be decided until regionals.

By JOSH HALLORANWith temperatures dropping and
the holiday decorations appearing on doorsteps, winter is nearing. Winter sports have had tryouts, but fall seasons are not yet complete. The end of the schedule is a key part of the seasons. There are the district games, rivalry games and metro/district tournaments which all teams work for the entire season: to become the state champions.
Regional tournament insight
Coming to the end of the season the girls varsity volleyball team finished 11-16. While it wasn’t the season they envisioned, they did earn a second place finish in Districts, behind top seed Dr. Phillips. Even though they lost, 3-1, they gave the Panthers a tough fight, playing four games (25-18, 22-25, 25-21, 26-24). Freshman Oakley Attaway had nine kills in the match against Dr.Phillips. The team will still play in the Regional tournament against Olympia High School on Nov. 2 at
Olympia.
Team chases goalsBoth boys and girls cross country
teams have been competing at high levels. In the DeLand Invitational on Nov. 19, six of the girls placed in the top 100. Senior Heather Classe placed third in the meet with a time of 19:41, and sophomore Burkhardt Helfrich placed 16th in the meet with a time of 17:19. The boys and girls teams set goals that are soon to be reached, such as competing for the State race on Nov. 19 in Dade City.
Young team reaches expectations
With a hard fought season, the boys golf team placed 6th out of 12 teams in the district tournament on Oct. 17, at North Shore Country Club.
“We had a lot of first year players with little experience in high school golf and we were not able to compete with the veteran teams in our district,” coach Todd Gregory said.
Finishing the season 3-16, the team faced a tough loss to West Orange and
Timber Creek in 18 hole matches. “This season was a re-building year
and hopefully some of the returning players will be able to improve with the experience they gained this season,” Coach Gregory said.
Swim team finishes strongThe girls’ team place 3rd overall in
the Metro Conference Meet, and the boys’ placed 5th overall. Chelsie Britt, junior was District champion in the 200 individual medley and 100 backstroke. Junior, Nichole Clayton, spohomore, Julia Hester, Britt and sophomore Eleanor Clark placed 2nd in the 200 medley and 3rd in the 200 freestyle relays. For the boys, junior, Brendan Ellixson placed 5th in the 500 freestyle. If the team places in the top two, at Regionals on Nov. 3 they will compete in the state tournament on Nov. 10.
Team strikes out competition
The boys and girls teams both bowled in the District match on Nov. 1 at Boardwalk Bowl. Girls finished in 5th out of 12 teams and boys 8th out of 12 in the district tournament. Senior Ashley Cassidy qualified for states.

Childhood sailing memory resurfaces
By DELANEE BOGAN
Skimming across the glistening water of Lake Conway with the whistling wind in her ear, sophomore Gretchen Gutierrez sails alongside her father. Sailing has become more than just a sport for Gutierrez.
“I feel really relaxed [when I go sailing]. It’s nice to be at peace when I am out on the water. It’s exciting because there is always something new to learn. It takes both physical and mental strength and lots of patience,” Gutierrez said.
Gutierrez has only been sailing six months but Gretchen’s father has been sailing since before Gretchen was born. Sailing helps them spend time together.
Two years ago her father restored an 18’ Hobie Cat to teach her the skills of sailing. Gutierrez has grown up sailing with her father.
“I love spending time with my dad when we sail together. It builds teamwork because I take control of the jib [the foremost part of the sail] and my dad takes control of the main sail. But I like the feeling of accomplishment
when I sail on my own,” Gutierrez said.While sailing leads Gutierrez
to feeling accomplished, it can be a dangerous sport. One has to learn how to deal with wind patterns or else the boat can flip over. According to theoceans.net, there are several ways sailing can go wrong. It depends on numerous factors including sizes and impact of waves and extreme weather that could ultimately lead to capsizing. Gutierrez avoids most of these factors because she sails on Lake Conway.
“I personally don’t consider sailing dangerous. So far, Gretchen sails on Lake Conway within our eyesight. As she becomes more competent she can challenge herself to different conditions based on her level of confidence,” Annette Gutierrez said.
Sailing is a sport that depends on the weather to determine when the right time to sail is. Before sailing, one must check the forecast to make sure the weather is clear while on the water. The best time to sail is between October and February because it is not the rainy season of the year.
“Sailing [is a sport that] requires patience, anticipation, readiness and multitasking. Being challenged under different weather conditions will be
something that she can apply to life in general, and will continue to shape her into the woman she will become,” A. Gutierrez said.
Although Gutierrez has not had as much time on the water as she would like due to participating in soccer and school work, she plans to continue to learn from her father and increase her skills by sailing on her own more often.
“Gretchen can continue to acquire various levels of sailing skills throughout her life. She could join a sailing club in college and she could ultimately do a bare boat charter with friends or family in the future,” A. Gutierrez said.
There are different sailing clubs located throughout Orlando. There is a 15 hour comprehensive course at the Lake Fairview Marina that teaches one the skills of sailing and allows one to develop at one’s own pace. One can go to lakeviewmarina.com to make an appointment and to receive further information about sailing.
“[Sailing has] opened my eyes to a much bigger world rather than limiting yourself to what’s in front of you. It’s all about the effort and what you want to do. You have to have passion and drive for it,” Gutierrez said.
SAIL IT. Gliding across Lake Conway, sophomore Gretchen Gurierrez sails alongside her father. “I love sailing because I’m an adventurist and it is a real thrill,” Gutierrez said. Gutierrez grew up watching her father sail and often fell alseep on the trampoline of the boat.

Orlando hosts 61st All-Star Weekend
By JOSHUA HALLORAN
For the second time in 20 years, Orlando will host the NBA All-Star Weekend at the Amway Center beginning Feb. 26.
The last time Orlando received such national publicity in the NBA was when Dwight Howard lead the Magic to its second NBA finals apperance in 2009.
The All-Star Weekend consists of the top players in the league competing in multiple events such as the Foot Locker 3-Point Shootout, the Sprite Slam Dunk contest and the end of the event is the 2012 All-Star game.
A single day’s ticket costs a minimum of $500 for a “nosebleed” seat. For fans who cannot afford a ticket, the city has created the NBA Jam Session at the Convention Center to provide the opportunity to get up close and personal. The NBA Jam Session is where fans can shoot, slam, dribble and drive all day; they can also compete against friends in skill challenges and receive autographs from the current
All-Star players, Hall of Fame legends and new rookies of the league.
The Jam Session tickets are on sale, prices range from $12 to $20. There will be about 30 different basketball courts with clinics, giveaways and prizes.
The weekend is supposed to add more than $100 million to the local economy. Local hotels, restaurants and venues will benefit most from the event. Local hotels will experience both short and long term benefits of hosting such a high caliber event.
“[I think] that it will bring many
families to the city and a lot of famous people who will spend big bucks during the weekend,” junior Rayshawn Moise said.
Not only are hotel’s economies increasing but also a large percentage of money will be spent on I-Drive restaurants and family attractions.
“[I think the All-Star Weekend] will benefit the city. The games will be broadcasted on national television (ESPN) for a big event; also having all the all-stars in town will bring publicity to the city,” junior Matthew
Wasson said. David Stern, the commissioner of
the National Basketball Association, had long promised to hold the marquee game in Orlando.
“I think it will increase the tourism rate and people will come back to Orlando because they liked what they saw,” Wasson said.
The city built the new Amway Center with a price tag of $480 million.
“Orlando deserves to hold the All-Star Weekend. They just built the new arena hoping that they would get an event with such a caliber as the All-Star weekend and look what happened.This is just a beginning for the Magic,” Moise said.
Voting for the East and West all-star teams can be done on nba.com. The teams consist of 11 players and five starters. Orlando’s own Dwight Howard is leading the all-star voting.
As of today the leaders for the voting are Chicago’s Derrick Rose, Dwayne Wade and Lebron James from the Miami Heat, last year’s scoring champion was Kevin Durant of the Oklahoma City Thunder and Dirk Nowitzki of the World Champion Dallas Mavericks.
FIRST ALL-STAR WEEKEND IN 20
YEARS
[I think the NBA All-Star Weekend] is the best All-Star Game in all of sports. The players put on a show for the fans at home and at the arena; they really interact with them during the entire weekend. - rayshawn moise, junior
