My favorite sections to write about are features and sports. I like getting to know people, learning new things, and helping get people’s stories out. I enjoy playing soccer, reading, and taking photographs outside of the Iliad. My first soccer season at Poway was great, I made so many new friendships, and I learned a lot in the process. In the future, I would like to continue playing soccer, attend a four-year university, and live by the beach. (Class of 2028)
