My favorite section to write for is Sports because I’ve played sports my whole life, and it’s fun to know what’s going on in the Athletic program here at Poway. Outside of the Iliad, I’ve been cheering for eight years and now do competitive cheer. I am this year’s captain Of Poway Elite Cheer a Non-Affiliated cheer program. I love to go to Belmont Park with my friends and hang out at the beach. I plan on going to Southwestern Community College to become an ultrasonography technician or someone in Sports Marketing.
