Girls
JV Water Polo
by Sarah Reinartz
The Girls JV Water Polo team is back and ready for action. They have
begun practice and are working hard and looking forward to the season
ahead.
Skill may be an important attribute to the team, but even more so
is chemistry. According to returning sophomore Kristina Micotti,
this is not a matter to worry about. “From the first day of practice,
we have had good chemistry. Everyone on the team is so encouraging,
so you’re never afraid to make a mistake.” Sophomore Becca
Pitman, a new addition to the team, said, “As a new player
it is very helpful to have everybody encourage you and pick you up
when you are down.”
“Practices may be tough, but in the end it will only make us better,”
said Micotti. Pitman agrees that it is necessary to have hard practices
to get the team “back in shape.”
Seven-year returning coach Cathy Manthey suggested
that the team’s hard work is beginning to pay off. With their first
game against Notre Dame on September 27, Manthey said, “The team continues
to build and get stronger every year and I am looking forward to finishing
in a higher position this year. Looking at the girls this year so
far, I am expecting a very successful and eventful season.”

Festival trip, though, saw things a little differently.
Coming prepared, all the students had some sort of diversion from
the drive; the neon glow of iPods, cell phones, and even a Pokémon
gameboy, poured out of people's seats and into the aisle.

Two '100 Year' Storms
Devastate Gulf Coast

Coast last month. Hurricanes Katrina and Rita swept in from the waters
of the Gulf of Mexico. As winds began to blow, reporters gave horrific
forecasts of what was to come. Hurricane Katrina, a category 4 (intensity
level out of 5), devastated much of the United States along the Gulf
Coast.

Warriors of the Waves
The start of the new season for the Warriors Varsity Water Polo team

hours practicing the fundamentals and conditioning. All this work
helped the Water Polo team prepare for another grueling schedule in
the West Catholic League. Senior Andrew Kikuta and
Junior Jonathan Langdon are this year's team captains.
