Making Memories: Throughout all-state, Liam Pohlmann (21) has made many different memories with the many different people he has met. My favorite part of all-state is everyone I meet through the ensemble, Pohlmann said. To this day, I am still friends and actively talk to people that I met in all-state. Although he may not go to the same school as them, he still holds all the experiences they shared throughout all-state.

Yes to Open Campus: Saying yes to open campus lunch, Trevor Elliot (23) agrees with the idea of having an open campus lunch. I feel like an open campus would be a good thing for students, Elliot said. I also feel like COVID-19 has played a big role in lunch too because were so packed up together. It wouldnt really hurt if we could go get lunch instead.

D-D-D- Defense; The underclassmen are sad to see players leaving such as pitcher Grace Buffington (21). I will miss the seniors, Ella Watts (23) said. Not just because they did a lot for the team, but also because they were my friends in real life, so its just sad to see them go. Not only Watts, but everyone left on the Dragons softball team said a sorrowful goodbye as the seniors played their very last high school game.
