For Freshmen Only!
Do you have an encyclopedic knowledge of subjects academic and arcane,
ordinary and outrageous? Do you pride yourself on your video gaming
reflexes? See how you can combine both of these talents by watching
the Academic League exhibition match on the commons this Thursday during
lunch. Each year, Freshman, JV and Varsity teams compete against other
North County high schools for seven Thursday night matches, beginning
on January 31. Practices are held twice weekly on Monday and Thursday
during lunch in Room C101. See Ms. Lansing, Freshman Coach, in Room
