Athlete: Erin Oswald
by Adam Hill
After playing against some of the best tennis players in the nation,
Erin Oswald earned her way to being one of Valley
top players.
Oswald has proven herself a leader by holding a spot on the varsity
team for the fourth year in a row as they compete in one of the toughest
leagues in Northern California. She not only spends time to make herself
better, but also helps the youth. She coaches at the Junior Tennis
Academy in Los Gatos and is summer coach for the Los Gatos Parks and
Recreation. Always finding a way to help out where needed, Oswald
loves to help the youth. Other than coaching them, she also mentors
the youth in her church. However, Oswald does not stop there; she
leads the bi-weekly prayer breakfast that takes place in her church.
As a secretary for ASB, Oswald, seems to have a passion for helping
the poor. She gives money to the program “Invisible Children,” and
helps to feed the needy through the San Francisco Rescue Mission.
Oswald also helps out by volunteering at the elementary camp where
she led campfire programs.
What is she? A friend, a captain, a leader, and a role model. Oswald
is loved and respected by her peers and teachers. A wonderful sister
and daughter, Oswald is always there to help wherever it is needed.
Coach Gay McLaughlin said, “I love to coach Erin. She is a joy to
have on the team.” Oswald puts her heart and soul into everything
she does, whether it is tennis, social life, or her walk with Christ.

type of torture. Everyone going on the 11th Annual Oregon Shakespeare
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.

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.

the West Catholic League. Senior Andrew Kikuta and
Junior Jonathan Langdon are this year's team captains.
