Photography Director Liza Rueckert shoteach of the covers, all of which are showcased on these pages. Hundreds of readersparticipated in an online poll to select which cover they wanted, but in the end onlyone could win…The winner of our cover contest was the Men’s Rugby Team, who recently hostedNationals and had an impressive season. Seniors Andrew Gumbiner, MattLinden, Jon Milgrom, Justin Sherman, and Rich Bryan brought an easygoingattitude to our afternoon cover shoot, keeping everyone entertained whilewe shot hundreds of photos. In the end, the photograph we chose for the covereffortlessly demonstrates their camaraderie and fun personalities.8 the continental | spring 2008
