volume 4 issue 1 Back to <strong>School</strong> Issue page 4 Keep Running! The Cross Country Season is looking good from the get go By Esther Khabinsky Cross country can be summed up in one simple word: running. Unlike football, volleyball, and tennis, cross country requires no other technique. “I’m very excited about this season,” says Mr. Thibert, the coach of the cross country team. “Our goal is to win Far East for small school.” Far East for Cross Country will be conveniently hosted in Misawa. Although Cross Country is essentially the same as previous years, Coach Thibert has upped the stakes. Circuit training, which consists of running half a mile, then doing calisthenics, has become larger part of the routine and after the fi rst race, when Misawa girls lost to Zama by a frustratingly small margin, the mile was added to the running. Coach Thibert is very adamant about winning this year. The previous year was a rebuilding year, but this time the team is expected big wins (such as thecross country girls’ big win at Sasebo last weekend). This projection is due to the fact that seasoned veteran runners, such as Angel Lemen, Audrey Haltli, David Blevins, and others, are returning. The team was also blessed with many new good runners, such as Kenneth Clark, who is this year’s secret weapon. With plenty of practice under their belts, a meet against Kinnick, E.J. King, Perry, Yokota, and Zama was held the weekend of September 26th. Although both teams ran their hearts out, in individual placements, Angel Lemon placed 7th with Tiffany Brinkerhoff close behind at 8th and boys falling just short of placements. In overall scoring however, the girl’s team placed 2nd just ahead of the boys who placed 3rd against other school’s boys teams. “It’s so hard!” exclaimed Tiffany Brinkerhoff after a long run. Many of the new runners are gasping for breath after practice, but the results show at the meets. “You’re only as good as you practice,” remarked the Coach at the start of the year, and practice they do. Along with the aforementioned circuit training, the team also does Indian runs, suicide hill runs, and in the future they will also be spending practice in the pool because swimming increases lung capacity and helps strengthen muscles according to Coach Thibert. There are high hopes for this season’s runners. So cheer for your classmates as they run, run, and run.

volume 4 issue 1 Back To <strong>School</strong> Issue page 5 Online Gaming By Parker Howard Anyone who has ever played Mario Kart or Super Smash Bros remembers Fridays at your house playing late into the night around a bowl of chips and empty cans of Red Bull, but Xbox live and online gaming is the newest craze. Who even remembers when Nintendo came out with 64 bit games Now the most popular games all have a couple qualities in common that make them so great: “excessive” gore (with the exception of Guitar Hero and Rock Band) and epic online play. Every gamer loves beating those nobodies from halfway around the world online in Gears of War, Call of Duty, and Halo. The added monthly fee hasn’t been a deterrent. After all, what’s a few dollars a month when you aren’t buying pizza for your friends every Friday night (sure they’re going to pay you back…) Well, yes, they aren’t sitting next to you and you may enjoy that aspect of the Friday night gaming, but don’t forget, there’s voice over IP now. You can chat with them wherever they are like they’re right there, but without the frustration of their screen peeking. (of course you’d never do that…) I personally thought the classic Super Smash Bros for Nintendo 64 would never die, of course it did. I look forward to what comes after Online Halo.
