Mazaheri, Patterson power offensive explosion that leads L-S lacrosse to 16-10 win

By -
Thursday marked the L-S boys lacrosse team's first home game, and they started the season on a high note, defeating Red Lion 16-10 on the home turf.
It did not have an auspicious start, though.
A timeout calmed the team and allowed them to execute
their offense
Less than two minutes into the game, Red Lion attacked straight through the L-S defense and scored to take a 1-0 lead. From there, the Pioneers buckled down; sophomore goalie Dylan Sindorf notched some impressive saves, but the team could not find any offense until coach Marty Mullen called a timeout.
Almost immediately thereafter, Tyler Zameroski scored off an assist by Teddy Mazaheri and subsequently Trevor King scored off an assist from Nate Patterson. Then, Alex Knarr took a pass from freshman Noah Paterson and scored the Pioneers' third goal. At the end of the quarter, L-S led 4-2.
Nate Patterson notched another assist to start the second quarter, this time helping Patrick McClain find the net. Red Lion immediately retaliated and had another opportunity after an L-S foul, but Sindorf stayed strong in goal. Eventually, however, the Lions were able to tie the game at five by halftime.

The Pioneers began to pull away to start the second half. Patterson, Mazaheri, and Knarr scored early in the quarter to begin to open a lead. McClain checked in at goalie, and continued the team's strong streak, making several beautiful saves. At the end of the third quarter, the Pioneers led 9-7.

McClain's prowess continued to shine early in the fourth quarter, although Red Lion did force another shot in to cut the deficit to one. From there, the L-S offense exploded with goals from Zameroski, Mazaheri (four more), Knarr, and Patterson. McClain wrapped up the victory with a great save, and the Pioneers won by six.

Rumble Fish Book Review

By -

I recently finished reading  Rumble Fish  written by S.E. (Susan Eloise) Hinton and published in 1975. The book starts with Rusty-James on a beach and he runs into an old friend of his that he hadn’t seen in years, Steve. That’s when he flashes back to everything he and Steve had done and been through when they were kids. Rusty-James’ memory is all messed up, and he barely ever remembered much from his childhood, but seeing Steve made everything come back to him… and that was probably for the worst. Most of the book is from Rusty-James’ point of view (in a flashback) when he was fourteen years old. He was the toughest kid in his neighborhood… besides his brother, the Motorcycle Boy, of course. The Motorcycle Boy’s real name is never said, everyone just calls him the Motorcycle Boy because he was constantly stealing and riding motorcycles. He was older than Rusty-James and everyone in their neighborhood respected him and thought he was the coolest and toughest guy to step face on p

Advice: How to get straight As

Achieving straight As, or an unweighted GPA of 4.0, is the goal of many high school students. Getting straight As involves a lot of hard work, but it isn't impossible. Here is how I believe you can get all As. Do your homework. The number of students who do not do their homework shocks me. But doing your homework has many benefits and will help keep your grades up. Those five points you receive for a homework check matter, and when you get a 0 out of 5, it matters even more. Doing your homework also helps you learn the information, raising your test and quiz grades as well. Don't procrastinate. Procrastination is the downfall of many high school students who are capable of good grades. When you receive an assignment, do it ASAP. And when you are given the date of a test, start studying immediately instead of waiting and then cramming the night before. When you do this, you are likely to be less stressed, which increases the quality of the work you do. Don't put

Book Review: Read the story of 14-year-old 'Tex' an aimless, trouble-prone youth

Book Review Before school started, I went to Barnes & Noble to get a few books from my favorite author, S.E. (Susan Eloise) Hinton, to read as the year started. I got That was Then This is Now , Rumble Fish , (a third copy of) The Outsiders , and Tex .  I had already read The Outsiders at least nine times, I had finished That was Then This is Now , and I had just finished Rumble Fish , so I decided to pick up Tex and start reading. The author of these books writes them in the only way I can ever read books. First person point of view with a relatable narrator.  This one was told by the point of view of Texas (Tex) McCormick, a fourteen year old boy who is living with his brother Mason because they’re mom died when Tex was little and their dad walked out on them a few months back.Texas (Left) and Mason (Right) McCormick Texas believes that Pop (their dad) will be back soon, but Mason knows otherwise…or at least he thinks he does. Tex has a few close friends and is r
