I'm excited about the space, and how everything looks.

Our media center is brighter and the space is better utilized. We have a designated teaching lab for media skills and a flat screen lV from Mr. Zuspan's Teacher of the Year award . We are very lucky to have such a great facility! Just call us The LINKED Library!

I liked it better this year on the side of the building, because there was more space, and more concrete, so we didn't have to be walking around in the mud .

Links Marc hing Band is feelin g wicke d!

Dan Ehly and 946 oth ers like this. . I think marching band was great. We did a lot of stuff differently and we tried to really put the fun factor in this year, that's why we picked Wicked. I think everyone really worked hard but I think the best thing about it was that everyone really enjoyed it. It was just as much fun playing it the last time, as it was the first. It was one of those shows were you wanted to work on it every day because you wanted to get better. For me, it was an incredible time. We didn't just want the destination, we enjoyed the journey. It wasn't kinder or oentler, it was just more fun.

Lincoln

High School is still urider constru dion with many changes this year.

August 20th 2009 at 7:55am

http://lhs.lps.org

Crowded halls, new students wanderin g througho ut the building with no idea where their next classes are - Let alone where they are trying to go now. The construct ion has turned the school into a maze. What is this place I'm talking about, where are we, you ask?

RIGHT HERE Welcome to Lincoln High where everythjn g is full of changes and the ~ students along with the staff are just stuck in the middle. ~ With over 1,600 students and staff, how do we stay "llnked"? ~ Our answer would have to be j~tim ❖1!;! Facebook is growing in popularit y every day, more than half of the students and staff at LHS have a l acebook, and if you're reading this right now, you have the Lincoln High version of Facebook right it your hands.The pictures and stories in this book will be here forever. We are all here at Lincoln High getting our education to start the next chapter in our lives. We'll always. remembe r where we came from no matter where we go in life. The friends and memories may fade but iffliO•=•=•!~will help us remembe r those things such as who took home the crown as homecom ing king or queen or the plays that showed throughout the year. Here at Lincoln High students are all treated with fairness and respect by the students and staff. The biggest event at Lincoln High is the construc tion that has changed the look of the entire school.

Construc tion has "plagued " Lincoln High for about three years but the school and it's members will come out of this stronger than ever and we were linked through this al-I the way.

Out of every school in Lincoln Nebraska, Lincoln High School has been here the longest. The opening of Lincoln High was the year of 1871. It was in the location of what is now Pershing Auditoriu m located in Downtow n Lincoln. Then the school moved to it's rnrrent location in 1915. We have the tradition, diversity, unity, and excellence that some schools may not have. What does that mean? It means ... Be PROUD that you're a Link!

Although Lincoln High students and staff celebrated Festivus, the scnool's annual fall celebration, in a new location due to construction this year, the Links proved that they could make a good time out of any situation. Because of the construction in the front of the building, where Festivus has traditionally been held, the festivities were moved to the area just to the west of the South Building. This included the practice field where students could dunk a teacher, climb a rock wall, play Frisbee, or Pie-A-Pomolink.

Students also tried their hands (and feet) at Sumo wrestling, jousting, and Dance Dance Revolution. Various clubs also had tables set up next to the building where they sold food, played games, and did henna tattoos. DECA provided Slushies and cookies, Middle Easter Club provided Falafel, and American Indian Caucus had a rotting cart of fry bread, which they brought directly to their customers.

Associate Principal Jessie Carlson, who helped coordinate the event, had nothing but praise for staff and students, saying that she also appreciated the dedication of club sponsors. In an email to sponsors, she said, "I am very lucky to work in a place where the staff, especially all of you, give so much of yourselves to the students and this building.# Richard Jackson, who was on the Festivus committee said, "I enjoyed the new location because even the students who didn't wont to be there were having fun, playing Frisbee or soccer and even just hanging out with friends.

The extra area allowed for students to roam around."

Carlson also said, "I liked the location because it was more central, and the gated area aHowed students to roam and we did not need a stdff perimeter. The fact that we hod 1600 students, loud music and no problems occurred made thi year amazing."

Despite the uncertainty of a number of details leading up to the celebration, the event went off without a hitch. The weather was sunny and worm, there was enough f a voriefy of activities to entertain virtually everyone,·and once again Lincoln High . udents showed ~ryone whot lt means to be a Link. :Students dancetto music played by the OJ during Festivus.

As we all kno ~, over the last three years, the face of Lincoln High has changed dramatically due to the construction. One of the biggest changes this year would be the Media Center. "Everyone really misses the balconie , that's kind of the bad thing. It was a place where teachers and kids could go and stay where it was ju t kind of quiet. Now everybody can get to everything because with the balconies, if omeone wa injured on crutches or something like that, we coul dn't get them to the b·alcony for a class, we had to be careful about where we put classes." These are Pam Gan non' s words when a ked about the good and bad things related to new Media Center. The Media Center is used for many different things throughout the day.

"It's been used so heavily, we'v e had teachers come in and kids come in, and seen a lot of studying and checking out books and really doing thing for class and getting ready for classes and te ts." says Gannon. "As you know , it's been a long process to get the Media Center to where it is now," Gannon laughs and says. "It's been LONG. It wa a three year proces because we'v e had to go up to 302 and different quadrants of this area. So it's been a really long haul for everybody," he added.

Audio Visual Technician Larry Dawson also states "It was a lot smoother than what I imagined it would be ... Probably the toughest thing was coming back at the beginning of the chool year and not having acct?ss to the Media Center. I could have cried." As we all know , there is a new flat screen TV in the Media Center but did you know that it was donated by whom we all know a Mr. Z. Social Studie teacher Bill Zuspan won the Wal-Matt teacher of the year award and he u ed part of the money to purchase the TV and a DVD player. "The kids are really starting to come and watch and use the TV," Gannon said.

Also , have you noticed the beautiful decorations spread throughout the Media Center, on bookshelves, tables, and everywhere in between? If so, you may want to know that Media Specialist Paula McClung purcha~ed them. So, students and staff at Lincoln High, you are very lucky to have such a nice Media Center, so keep it that way!

Gannon says "The difficulty is getting people to know that we really need to u e the new doors and not sneak out another door just because you can get out of the door. And jt's just hard for us to monitor people going where they ' re not uppo ed to go."

LINKS EXCITED BY NEW TED SORENSEN THEATRE

If you never sat in the old auditorium seats - especially the ones in the balcony that were the original seats from 1913 - you can't fully appreciate how·wonderful the new theatre is. Although there have been minor changes over the years (some new seats were added in the '50s, and some speakers were hung under the balcony to try to improve acoustics) the actual structure itself remained pretty much untouched until this year.

As part of the building-wide renovation, the old auditorium got a complete face -lift while still preserving much of the original, beautiful architecture and is now named the Ted Sorensen Theatre. Sorensen, an LHS alum from 1945, went on to be an adviser and speech writer for President John F. Kennedy. He spoke to students and staff last year, and will return later this year for the theatre's dedication ceremony in May. English Department Chair and Theatre Director Patsy Koch Johns was thrilled with the changes. "They did a wonderful job of maintaining the integrity of the past and the present without allowing it become just a plain old box," she said. 'Tm sure just exactly like the original designers and architects wanted it to be."

Instructional Coordinator and Musical Director John Heineman said, "The old theatre was great. We kept a lot of the old charm and yet really modernized it. What we can do now that we couldn't do before with the sound system and light system is phenomenal. We have more space on the stage and the tech room is amazing."

Music Director Dan Ehly added, "Well, the old [theatre] was built in the style• of the 1920s theatres. It wasn't really designed for anything more than the vaudeville stage. It was inadequate for what we needed.

It hadn't been updated for so long that I believe you can see the stain from Joynite in the earlyt970s where they threw a pie at the principal. Down the line, as we get to learning how to use the electronics they built into it, ifs going to be a pretty amazing place. I think they really made it a state of the art facility. It does allow us some more options."

Koch Johns added, "It's amazing to have state of the art facilities for students to work in and that it's finally equitable with all of the other theatres in the city.

After 20 to 30 years of missing things like a fly system, lighting and sound, it's wonderful just having the equipment so that students who study theatre at LHS can actually study in the same way that other students are studyin across the city."

About five years ago, planning for construction started and three of those five years were actually spent working on construction. It is finally coming to ~n end. Associate Principal Brent Toal on said the reason for some of the delays was because, "When you get into a building thi , old so~etimes you find things after you tear down walls so you have to go back and do extra work, so the delays really related to making ure we got the project done right." "Except for some delays, most of the P,rojects ran smoothly.

Many students and staff wondered when the construction would actually be completed, Toalson said "We are nearing the end in the next month [March 2010] or so we will be done with most of the projects.

After that there will just be ome mop up projects like painting and putting trim on windows that will be finished up around Spring Break 2010." Many uppercla smen_also were worried that since we have a new and improved cafeteria it would mean dosed campus for juniors and seniors, Toalson said "That deci ion will be made by the school board, so it is not a school decision. In the end, the school came together well, and things got back to normal. Some big change were made, but tpe school retained its classic look and feel.

Lincoln High's Hom ecom ing theme this year, Cirque Du SoLINKS, migh t be better remembered as Cirque Du S0L1ghtsdue to som e issues with students danc ing dirty in the darkness . Because students coul dn't keep it clean, the lights were turn ed on by administrators and chaperones . "We felt like, in terms of dancing, certain codes of cond uct were n't being follo wed ," explained Associate Principal Jessie Carlson . One student described the dance floor as having concentric circles of progressively naug htier and naug htier dancing. The center being reserved for the worst.

At the begi nnin g of the dance, a few lights were on, and students asked if they could be turn ed off.

The DJ relayed an anno unce men t from sponsors that as long as students kept the danc ing "clean and appropriate" the lights could be turn ed off. It didn 't take long, however, for students to igno re the warn ing. One more anno unce men t was made, and sponsors asked several groups to cool off, but in the end administrators felt they had to hit the switch permanently. "We reminded several groups to keep it clean, but as soon as we turn ed arou nd, they wen t right back to it," Carlson said.

Alth ough students complained, it didn 't stop them from having a good time . Even with the lights on, the dance floor was never empty, and overall the nigh ( was "pretty smooth," Carlson adde d .

This year, Hom ecom ing Royalty were anno un·ced and crow ned at the dance, rather than duri ng the gam e as they have in recent years. Reactions to this change were mixed . Some preferred the coronation duri ng the game, because parents and family were able to share in the crow ning . Others liked the fact that it was just the students who got to see the festivities at the dance. Overall it was a perfect example that you can't please everyone, but judg ing from student comments, you could please quite a few.

to th e Fu tu re There are so many classes to choose from in high school. What if there was a program which chose the classes for you? International Baccalaureate, in its second year at LHS, is that program with room for each candidate's interests. "You get a rigorous but thorough curriculum to learn, with a considerable amoun t of both breadth and depth;' said senior Jon Lambert. Because the IB Diploma progra m is a two year comm itmen t from the summ er before junior year to senior year, this is the first year seniors graduated from the program. IB has been described as "like AP on steroids". Although the quest for "IB jokes" has been fruitful, none are appropriate for a school publication. However, there are many facebook groups dedicated to making light of the challenges of IB. "The challenges would be most apparent in the sheer amoun t of work you must do, with the Extended Essay, multiple other externally and internally assessed activities, the CAS requirements, and the foreboding IB exams;' Lambert continued.

Of course, the progra m was not without its shortcomings. The self-proclaimed "guinea pig group" (IB seniors of 2010) wished they could have been part of the program in the f~ture because everyone involved was still figuring out how things should work. "At the same time we [were] able to help create the program, and many of the insights from the teachers [were] new even to them which [led] to some more genuine conversations;' commented senior Sam Bontrager.

One of the biggest struggles for the senior class was the Extended Essay, a 4,000 word required research paper neede d for candidates to graduate with the IB Diploma. Even with all the delays (two extra extend ed deadlines), all twelve diploma candidates turned in their Extended Essays on March 1, 2010. "It felt great to finally be finished!" said senior Emme Grafton who wrote a literary Extended Essay on The Poisonwood Bible. Chris Maly, Extended Essay coordinator, commented that students are expected to constr uct drafts du~ing the summ er vacation .. "I think both students and staff of the IB Progra m learned a great deal and the students should 1be commended for being the first to venture down the unbeaten path. They certainly had a compelling and diverse academic experience that I think will serve them well in higher education;' Maly continued.

The Art Department returned to its home in Middle Hallway after construction was completed during the summer before the 2009-2010 school year. "We've had one room taken away from us, a new room given to us, the pottery room has been redesigned, kind of reformatted and we've gotten new storage galleys in between the three rooms . We've got more storage that we've had to organize and figure out what we're going to be doing with now." said Art Department Chair, Shawn Stokes .

Construction wasn't the only thing preventing the Art Department's abilities to move throu gh the year normally. The Winter Art Show, which was scheduled for January 6th throu gh the 8th, was cancelled this year due to the unprecedented numb er of snow days Lincoln Public Schools experienced . "We won't be doing it in the Media Center like we have been doing the last ten or so years . It's going to be more so in the cafeteria in those new display cases, so that's going to be something different." commented Stokes before the event. Stokes encourages all her students to put their best piece in the show . "That's part of being an artist, [putting] your work out there for public viewing, kind of that social pressure to show something that you're proud of in there," continued Stokes .

Anoth er type of art show was hosted in Room 300 during the first few weeks of April. The second year IB Visual Art candidates experienced their external examination on their individual shows . Each stude nt had to speak to an external examiner for 20 minutes about their artwo rk and the journ ey they have taken over the past two years .

"He [the examiner] was so easy to talk to .. .just gener ally conversa-

Chances affe, you eithe,. know someone, o,. know of someone, who is se,.ving in the milita,.y. This yea,., DECA and FBLA finished a p,.o;ect that was sf a,.fed last yea,. that included sendiHg boJtes of supplies to Ame,.ican ,,.oops stationed in 1,.aq and Afghanist an.

In the sp,.ing of 2009, DECA put on a ba,.beque to collect donated items fo,. the troops. A va,.iety of snacks, ,.eading mate,.ial, toys fo,. Iraqi kids, health and beauty aid we,.e collected, With the help of students and pa,.ents, they se,.ved chips, han,bu,.ge,.s, hot dogs, cookies, and soda, If someone b,.ought donations, then they got a f,.ee w,eal. The g,.oups also ,.eceived donations f,.om different departme nts at LHS and individual s. FBLA ended up ,.aising enough money to send the t,.oop boJtes ove,. seas.

DECA was unde,. the assumpti on that the affmy would ship all of the donations overseas, but they we,.en·t able to because of secu,.ity issues. FBLA members set about f,.ying to figure out a way to send the supplies, and they ended up ·going to the •post office to get small bo,tes. Senio,.s Jasndne Alley and Jamal Hill figured a way to place the supplies as tightly as possible, and because the boJteS we,.e small, they were a lot cheaper.

Rathe,. than sending 9 big boJtes for t25°"J300 apaece, they we,.e able to send 36 s"''"" boJtes at f12.50 apiece.

One technical ity was that they had to send the boJtes to a particula r soldie,. ,.ather than to iust a random g,.oup, so they got suggestio ns f,.om diffe,.ent people and teachers who had fan,ily and friends overseas.

"The ,.esponse we got back f,.o..,, the soldiers was ,.eally positive. They we,.e very app,.eciat ive of the supplies, ..

FBLA sponso,. John Brady said. "They are overseas fo,. 6... 12 months, so something from their homeland lets then, know that we are thinking of them and we ca,.e about then,. I think that makes a big diffe,.ence for them," B,.ady added. The maio,.ity of boJtes were sent to Iraq and some to Afghanis an. Some we,.e sent over winfe,. break, some 2... 3 weeks afte,. that, 5... 6 bo,tes 3 weeks afte,. that, and a few mol'e about 2 weeks ago.

"I was really pleased with the FBLA kids, all the effort that they went through to raise the money, to pack the boJtes and ,.epack the boJtes, and it was a lot of work," Brady said. "Bect1use we wel'e sending stuff inte,.n,dio nally, the,.e was ce,.f ain paperwor k that had to be filled out fo,. the postal service. It was a lot of work but if was vel'y g,.atifying because the 14esponse we got back was amaiing."

The soldie,.s were so happy when they ,.eceived the boJtes. A fo,.me,. LHS g,.aduate e,,.ailed Brady back, saying, "Everythin g was ,.ansacke d within 30 seconds." "All of the ,.esponses we got back were iusf really positive," s,.ady said. "They ,.eally enjoyed, wanted, and needed the supplies in thJ bo>tes. It was wo,.th all the wo,.k and effo,.t."

You hear the clinking of dumbbells, the splash of the pool, or the shrill sound of a whistle. Where are you? You are in one of the many Health and P.E. classes offered here at Lincoln High. The Health and P.E. program offers a wide variety of classes to take, whether you love to dance, or just like to stay active any way possible, we have the class for you. Some of the options would be a variety of weight training classes (Weight Training, Personal Weight Training, Advanced Weight Training), swimming classes (Beginning Swimming, Advanced Swimming, Lifeguard Training); and then there are the classes that just keep you active in many different ways (Dance 101, Fitness , for Life, Team Sports, Lifetime Sports).

Students at Lincoln High are aH required to take 7.5 credits of P.E. classes to graduate, some take more as an elective. LHS alum and P.E. teacher Amy Carrioto said, "It's a great way to get some energy out after sitting at a desk all day. There are lots options for P.E. classes, and we would love to get as many people excited about physical activity as possible!" She also tells that her favorite class to teach is Lifetime Sports . "The activities we do are the types of activities the students can do for life. The one's we have done so far this year are Ultimate Frisbee, Disc Golf, Tennis, Badminton, Pickleball, Ping Pong, Archery, Fly Fishing, Eclipse Ball, and Volleyball. In the future we plan on including Golf and hopefully kayaking."

P.E. teacher Andy Genrich teaches his students a variety of skills. His main focus? "To set goals and try to achieve them by the end of the semester." Alright students, it's up to you now. The teachers here are ready to help you get in shape and stay in shape, so take advantage of the great opportunities!

New classrooms, a new job site, new projects, etc. our Industrial Technologies teachers work hard to teach students new things as well as how to use the new skills they develop.

Mike Fultz, Stan Haas, Rus Hitz, and Gary Hinkley are the teachers in this department. They teach a variety of classes. "This was my first year teaching Advanced Auto Tech," Fultz said. "/ taught Auto Tech last year as well as this year, but this was a new class for me." Fultz .brought his experience to the class, but working together with his students also provided everyone with opportunites to share knowledge. "/ also learned from my students," Fultz said.

Something new this year for Haas was "Not being in our classrooms, having to be in the library," he said. Being in temporary classrooms while their original classrooms were being remodeled made things particularly difficult for classes that use equipment that they didn't have access to.

Hinkley was placed in a temporary office for the first part first semester this year due to the remodeling of the new Graphics Communications class and Machinery Tool lab .

Residential Construction, taught this year by Russ Hitz, is always big at LHS. Students left to work on the job site during 6th and 7th periods.

The job site this year was at 339 N 24th Street. Students basically start from scratch, and in the end, had a finished house!

This year in the CAD (Computer Assisted Drawing) Tech classes, students worked on Project Lead the Way. Students take a national exam {optional) at the end of the year to earn 3 hours of college credit in Engineering .

There are many contests in which LHS students do an excellent job in various departments. Industrial Technologies classes are no exception.

In Skills USA, two students have to figure out the problems in a broken car and fix them in a limited time. This happens at the end of second semester.

LHS finished 18th place last year in the nation!

Despite the changes and difficulties throughout the year, the students and staff pulled together and made the best of it. The good news is that next year they will be starting out with brand new facilities.

The Lincoln High Instrumental Music Department is one of the many outstanding traditions at this school. This year, the band has a newly renovated room, new students and new staff. This year, Dan Ehly has become the Director of Instrumental Music. Ehly replaces Terry Rush, who left to teach at Southwest High School. Taking over the assistant directing position is Chris Watson. Brett Noser rounds out the teaching trio, as the District Orchestra String Consultant.

Second sem este r also brought the addition of Lindsey Engalls, who is a student teacher from UNL.This year, there are 226 students in grades 9-12 involved in instrumental music. For the first quarter, all band members, 9-12, are in Marching Band. During the second quarter, the same students make a Senior Concert band. Then, second semester, marching band splits into 3 groups; freshman, concert and symphonic band. You have to try out to be in symphonic band.

There is also an orchestra, that meets during 3rd period everyday, and they don't change at the semester. Musicians join for a variety of reasons, but the ones that stay all have the same reason, the love of music. Mr. Ehly says "If you work hard for a long period of time, you can do things that you never thought you could do. I like seeing improvement." . The 2009-10 school year has seen many new changes to the appearance and functionality of Lincoln High. Just like the rest of the school, the band room has undergone a major makeover. Last school year (2008-09), for the 4th quarter, the band practiced in the West Gym, and they were there until the 1st quarter of this year, when construction was finally completed. The official moving day was on November 16th 2009, but the long process started much earlier.

After the move, it was a big relief to everyone, to finally be out of the West Gym, and back where they belonged. . Some new additions to the room, were a large ensemble practice room where you can rehearse with a group, and 4 new individual practice rooms. The office now has 4 built-in desks in it, and the old office is now the music library. The walls have been built with double insulation to support the powerful sounds produced within, without disrupting everyone else outside. Another fun feature is that the 2 music rooms- the band and choir rooms- are now connected with a door.

When everyone got to see the new room, like everything, there were mixed reactions. For the most part students said they liked the changes they saw, but there were some parts they wern't so happy about. Students liked that it was much bigger and they got new lockers, but they didn't like that they were not allowed to eat in there anymore. More than one student commented on how much brighter the room was, and noted the lack of carpeting among other things.

One thing that everyone agreed on though, was that they were glad they didn't have to move again anytime soon.

inque ck gets istance m Gary kley in

Other interesting things that the music department supports are a 4th period jazz band, an early morning jazz band, electronic music theory, winter drumline and introductory and advanced guitar classes. There are 2 periods for Jazz Band, because some kids couldn't be in it during the school day, and some were unable to (or didn't want to) come in at 7 am 3 days a week. Electronic Music theory uses music and electronics to further understand both of them and how they work together. Winter drumline was designed to help keep the drumlin°e members practicing and perfecting their skills, but was opened to all instrumental students that were interested in joining. The 2 guitar classes are taught by Gary Hinkley, who is also one of the industrial tech teachers.

There were 2 levels of the guitar classes, one for people just starting and one for those who wanted to improve their playing abilities.

The Council members try their harde t to entice tudents to go to Lincoln High and they use thi opportunity as a tarting point for preparation for helping the tran ition from Middle to High School. They toured the middle chool that feed into Lincoln High to talk to the tudents about what high school is really like. And, the Student Council mbers end their summers a day early to guide new tuden around the school on Freshmen Day. Why does Student Council do all this? Student Council members are the representative that provide a connection between the ad.mini tration and the tudent body. Yet, this is not what the members focus on. They jus ant to make each year at Lincoln High great for everyone.

Late in the season, the team got another blow. Head Coach Laura Aten announced that this was her last year coaching. "I'm really sad, becau e it's been a lot of fun, but it's time to move on," explained Aten. Assistant Coach Ruth Clark feels like being head coach would be too much for her to take on, so the team faces the next season with no returning coaches.

The team members banded together to make Coach Aten' s last season one to remember.

Upon hearing the announcement, team practices happened much more· often~and the team began to go to every tournament. "We got better at the end of the year because we knew Mrs. Aten was n't Above: (from left) Jame s Steele (10), Emily Madcharo (11), and Greg Ward (11).

~ (p rt! Jr k; . r(f~ This year, the debate team saw four students go to state. The team has grown in the past couple of years and has had consistent success in the past couple of years. This year, the team saw an influx of Novice competitors. "Tw o people going to state were novi [first year competitors], so they did really well," explained Junior Arron Johnson, who is in his third year on the team. State Debate is not something these students take for granted. The team members invest a huge amount of time and hard work.

"The Speech and the Debate season is one of the longest seasons [of any activity]. It goes from October to March." explains Coach Brian Goodbrake. The debate team members come in multiple days each week, every week. They go to tournaments to compete almost every weekend. This is a time commitment the students are more then willing to take on. When asked why they would be so willing, Johnson excitedly explained, " I get to learn about philosophers, public policy, and world governmental action and international relations." Not everyone would get so excited about this, but for those that are, they find their place with the successful debate team.

What does it take to get published in Scribe?

The Editor-In-Chief, Junior Eric Holt, explains, "I jud ge on content not on grammatical quality." Adds Junior Dylan Roberson , "Content is important but overall I think readability is more important because some one is going to relate to the content even ifl don ' t personally like it."

Above all, the entire Scribe staff encourages students to submit or, better yet, apply to be an editor. And, if you need ome extra inQentive, Roberson adds, "Miss McGinn ' s cool."

Whenever the score is low, they're the ones that keep our spirit up. The Lincoln High cheerleaders were at nearly all games to cheer the Links on to victory. The Links cheerleaders performed at football games, volleyball games, boys and girls basketball games, and wrestling matches. They also performed at Camp Okoboji where they swept camp and took home nearly all of the awards including the Spirit Award which is the highest honor that is voted on by the entire camp, along with the Shrine Parade, Star City Parade, Fall Link Up, Winter Link Up, spirit rallies, and the Lincoln Northeast Starstrutters Show. Coach Erika Kirkland says the Freshman squad, consisting of four cheerleaders "were small but mighty". She also says "The JV squad had many strengths, but I was most impressed with their determination to advance their skills. The Varsity squad was stacked with amazing performers. Watching this squad perform always felt like such a treat!" Kirkland comments that the Lincoln Northeast Starstrutters Show was her favorite performance and "I think that we blew.people away with our timing, precision, and sharpness when we cheered and danced. It was the proudest moment of my coaching career." Coach Emily Martin also comments on the Northeast Starstrutters Show saying, "All of the performances were flawless this year, but this perfor•mance in particular stood out. The dance and cheer that were choreographed by the cheerleaders and performed at the Starstrutters Show was fantastic. That was definitely my proudest moment this year."

Netw:>rks: Lincoln High School '11 AboutMP.: I found out about Arts and Humanities through friends who went there before I did. If I didn't know anyone who went there before I applied, I would have had no idea that it even existed . We learn more about topics that I am interested in and want to focus on, because that's what it is-- a focus program. We do interesting things like have musicians come, go on field trips to art galleries, and do things that keep us involved in the community as a school. In May, we are having a First Friday benefit fashion show and all of the proceeds are going towards helping the problem of sex trafficking . We're also talking about getting involved with the food drive to help with the hunger problem in Lincoln .

Features

The summer before Freshman year, I traveled to Vietnam.

My dad had a stroke when I was eight, and a second one a little while later, so my mom wanted to try acupuncture and make his "damaged " side stronger. I saw my entire parent's family, as well as the beach, sand hills in Mui Ne, street vendors, and a lot of people begging for money.

One night when staying in Saigon, my family and I were in line to get dessert from a street vendor. A little girl, about 10 years old, was running around with her little brother, weaving through the line, with a bucket in her hand beg ging for money. She and her brother had tattered clothing and straggly hair. One of the street vendor women , an noyed and mad, told the kids to go away, since they were "disturbing her customers:' She then walked to the father of the kids, who was sitting on a mat on the ground, leaned down and asked him "Don't you know how to raise your kids?" In Vietnam, it is disgraceful to be told you are a bad parent, since it shows that you are incompetent.

The man called the oldest girl over, and started slapping her, right there. At that time, my mom had already bought the dessert, and. we were walking the opposite direction . I turned my head, and saw the little girl's head, bowed down, as she was expecting a second blow. I was amazed at what was happening before my eyes. A father was slapping her daughter, because she was trying to get some money for food . This really impacted me, since even though I knew poverty existed in Vietnam, I wasn't really exposed to it when I was there (to the extent that I saw), so seeing this scene really brought this to heart. There is something we all can do to help prevent something like this from happening . All we have to do is take that initial step, and ASK. Look around for those that need your help, because, most likely, unbeknownst to you, there is someone there, waiting just for you.

Infonnat ion NPtvvorks: Lincoln High School '10 Al:nut:Me: I grew up in Sudan, Africa. My dad was killed whe_n I was 5 because of the ongoing conflict there. I came here on December 3, 2005 because do~n there it was so dangerous.

People get killed everyday and my mother decide to let me leave the country so I could be safe and go to school in another country.

The life here is way better than the life back there . Whe e I came from, every week you see a dead ~ody somewhere or you heard the gun shot, gun shots was like drums. There was no single week that you could go through without hearing guns unless you're dead or leave the place. I now work part- time at the UNL cafeteria, and I send money back to my fam.ily ever:.: month. I'm not just supporting me, but my entire family too. After graduation I am going to go back to Sudan and visit my mom. When I come back I will attend SCC for two years and then transfer to UNL, where I will become a teacher or a_business owner. Where I live after that depends on what job I get, but I always want to travel back and spend time in Sudan.

I 'B~: lf o~Mi11 'Pw;} It was another successful year for bowling! The biggest accomplishment was qualifying for state, once again. Team qualifiers were: the Boy's Varsity, Boys J.V, and Girls J.V team. Individual qualifiers were: Sophomore Cayliss Mothershed who qualified for 2nd • place, and Junior Rachel Eubanks for 8th place. At the State competition Rachel Eubanks placed 11th. Cayliss Mothershed's goal for state was to reach the top ten, but despite her efforts she didn't quite reach her goal. State competition for Boys and Girls J.V teams this year was at "The Big Apple" located in Kearney Nebraska. The Boys Varsity team placed 3rd at State while the Boys J.V team placed 11th. "We got a lot of gutters, a lot of splits, that's what messed us up;' said Freshman Matt Scribner. Unfortunately for the Girl's J.V team they did not place during state.

The mastermind behind this years bowling team was definitely their coaches, unfortunately two of the coaches are retiring this year. Coach Meyer and Coach Amory are stepping down from the action and leaving the team in the hands of Scott and Amanda Boltz. "I did it for 12 1/2 years, I didn't realize it was that long but it's time for something new. I'm still going to be involved with the team, if they need he.Ip during practices ... I'm just stepping down;' said Coach Amory. Along with Amory was Coach Meyer, "Patty coached for 11 1/2 years until she came to help me coach the Boys Varsity;' said Amory. With the former coaches leaving and new coaches taking their places comes a lot of sadness but yet many new opportunities. "I'm kind of sad about it. They coach .the Boys Varsity and J.V., but they also talk to the girls;' said Sophomore Haylie Harding. With new coaches Lincoln High's Bowling Team can only get stronger and better. Scott Boltz is a graduate of Lincoln High and bowled for Lincoln High from 1997 to 1999 when he graduated. Amanda Boltz is a graduate from UNL who was part of a bowling team that won Nationals twice in the early 2000's. "I know they're in good hands;' said Coach Amory.

How wou ld you describe the Lincoln High Junior Vars ity, Reserve and Freshman Football teams? Phenomenal! The Links this year have done an outs tand ing Job at hon orin g the Links name. Each team had an outstanding vict ory ove r several schools with only one loss on each team. From pou ring rain to icy cold wea ther , nothing could stop these teams this season.

The Freshman Football Tearn is a new batch of futu re Links. Some wou ld say the high light of this year for the foot ball team wou ld be a certain game, however for Coach Dave Medina the high light was seeing the team progress thro ugh the season "Fro m game one to last nigh t, we have improved all phases of the gam e." As for the toughest games, "All of our games are our toug hest games. You've got to respect you r opp one nt but not fear you r opponent.

IIIIIJ!IIMlillf!l-llllll!!!!l!IIIIIMIII Eve ry time we prepare for each wee k or each game, l tell them that 's out toughest opponents. You focus on one game, you don 't focus on the nex t game.n Medina plans on imp rovi ng the team by hav ing them try out for mor e than spo rt.

"The mor e you compete, the bett er an athlete you can be. Don 't be a one spo rt athlete, be a two or three spo rt athlete.

Oii;iicill, smHe on their faces, the LHS girls' golf team goes out to a tournament and gives their all. As Coach Sharpe put it, this year's players have a "willingness to take the risk of competing and then learning from it. " like most sports, achievement in golf is Nrelative to the experience you have, and the knowledge and skills you develop. The girl's golf team has definitely risen to the occasion. Of the eight girls involved in go lf this season, two are new to the team. Sophomores Emma Schultz and Claire Karsting joined golf this year for the first time, and have only helped the group. Coach Sharpe describes them as committed, encouraging, and full of a desire to learn. This year, Coach Sharpe put the most emphasis on individual improvement, in order to benefit the team as a whole. "Eight girls started the season, and eight girls finished," says Coach Sharpe. All of them have "taken ownership to areas of weakness," and faced their biggest competition--themselves.

Sophomore Ariel Blackman has expressed these qualities, and consequently been one of the strongest contributors to the girls' golf team this year. Blackman placed second at the Northeast Invitational on September 17 after shooting an 84. After that, she went on to finish 4th at the LPS Championship on September 22. The team as a whole tied with Northeast for fifth place. In Blackman's words: "We had an amazing season with a lot of young golfers.. .we really improved our game."

1s year improved 300% of what they did last year. They won es last year winning six games this year. When asked if the team imoughout the season coach Jeff Pierce said "no doubt" he also said that st thing is to keep improving. Senior Katie Martin said "We made a lot s as a team." During this season they switched the line-up.to improve With only two seniors on the team this year, it was "a very young •erce put it. The team was trying to "get respect and get that bounce s a step in the right direction. most of the team in and out for illness, it was a very hard year. verybody was healthy and wish you had everyone here for the whole e said; The team this year was very understanding of the roles that •or Cat Harvey was said as one of the top leaders on the team. "I al person" Harvey said. ow that it would take time to gel [getting along and finding team t of the teams we played were really high caliber, [they] had a o c u girl that played 60, 70, 80, 90 games, and a lot of our girls had not."

Pierce aid. M rtin adds, "A lot of our girls didn't have a lot of high level of playing." Ac uple _of the girls played baseball and others played softball on a ummer lea e before the season started, which really helped their play this year.

Harvey play d beseball this summer and said, "My batting improved, its over half what it as last year."

Th season end was one of the best years that the girls have had in a long time. The layers and coaches are looking forward to many more good seasons ahead.

• This year there were only two seniors on the team, Katie : Martin and Janeigh Castillo-Barraza. They both helped • guide the team to. the bes ' season they 've had in a long • time. They have been around to see three different coach• ing methods. Their freshman year: Jen Schmidt, sopho: more year: Don Miller, junior and senior year: Jeff Pierce.

• All of the coaches had different methods they thought • would make a better team, with Pierce they say he·is posi• tive and works more on fundamentals. When asked what : the hardest game this season was, they both had differ• ent answers.

season,and llcnowthey have grown more than they wlll ever know from the effort they have put forth and theexperl· ences they have had this season."

"The stren1th of this team from my perspective is the overall enthusiasm and positive attitude of the team, and that is a reflection of the fact .that the people on the team are basically very 100d human beings," said Coach John Clark about his 2009-2010 JV 1irls basketbal l team. The team started out with six Juniors, five sophomores and two freshman. Throus,hout the season the team worked hard, played tou1h and stuck tos,ether. Coach Clark says the thins, that makes his team special is th people, "Who they are. I don't want to mention anyone specl ically, but I could say very positive thins,s about everyone on the team. I think they are some ~ ~ ;;; ' extremely cool, interestin 1, and wonderful bein1s."

When the JV team played Uncoln Northeast on January 22, 2010 at LNI they scored the first two points of the 1ame and held the Rockets scoreless in the first five minutes. Althous,h the Links were down at halftime they went into the locker room ready to re1roup. The Unks came out and ti1htened the score to a 13 point difference, 20 to 33 which was a hus,e accomplishment for the team. In the locker room after the s,ame the 1irls were ecstatic and full of cheer.

"We find that we are not as skilled as most of our opponent~, and that is really discoura1in1, because it really affects how we perform. When you find it difficult Just to pass the ball to a teammate or dribble the ball up court, because you are beins, pressured by your opponent, it makes it difficult to have the feelin1 of success, and when you feel a lot of frustratio n about what you are try· ins, to accomplish that can be a verj bis, obstacle, said Clark.

Ourin1 the s,ame a1ainst Uncoln North Star on January 28, 2010 the Unks felt exactly what Coach Clark was talklns, about. We only scored 2 points in the first half but in the second half they had 1irls step up the pace and s,et the ball fallins, in the hoop. The Links out-scored the Gators in the second half with 27 points.

"This is why I came out for basketbal l, that half was a scorin1 explosion, sophomore Jolin N1yuen said.

After three long and hard days of tryouts they went home and waited for the phone to ring. As their palms became sweaty, their stomachs filled with butterflies they did not realize they had already made the Freshman Girls Basketball team.

The Freshman ladies had their first game against Lincoln Northeast on December 16, 2009. The Links played with heart, ran hard, jumped high and fought until the buzzer. Although the end result was not exactly what the girls had hoped for, it made them work harder each day at practice to come out on top.

Coach Jerrel Green puts his heart and soul into his team and wants them to succeed, "I don't want a win so that it can say l -whatever on my record. I want you guys to win so that you can feel what it feels like to win." That is exactly what the girls did.

The Links had a few victories but the sweetest was the game against Lincoln North Star on January 12, 2010. It came down to the buzzer with both teams fighting for the win. The Links proved they know what it takes to pull it together and play until the very last second. With the crowd on their feet the Links won the game 41 to 40.

"It felt great because we lost to them the first time and they thought they were just going to cream us but we showed them Back Row {L to Rl: Grace Joseph (9), Alysha Toman (9), Briannah Hunt (9), Hannah Almanza we could win," freshman Linh Nguyen said.

If they were ahead they played as if they were Stormy Eberspacher (9) FreshReserve, JV, trying to catch up," said Coach Green.

Not Pictured: Linh Nguyen (9), Muamera Drnda (9) "We won a couple games. Freshman girls have not won in man Girls Basketball a few years," said Green. You can imagine the team's excitement and pride to be ranked 6th this year.

With awinning season under his belt and atalented group of players to work with, Junior Varsity Boys Basketball coach Mark Larson sees the year as a success in many ways. The JV team was 9-8 for the season, and "most of the players improved throughout the year;' Larson said.

• The biggest game of the year was at the city tournament at the end of the season. One of the goals the team set at the beginning of the year was to be the city champions, but the boys just couldn't pull it off this time. Number 2 seeded LHS faced off against Numbe 1seeded Lincoln Southeast for.the top spot, but despite some excellent play, in the end LHS lost the game in overtime. The Links had lost to the Knights earlier in the season in overtime as well.

I "It was disappointing to lose to them twice, but we played really well and very hard in both games, so win er lose, I was really proud of the way they played and the way they competed;' Coach Larson said.

"The thing that was really unique about that game ~as that the stands were full, and alot of people were there,' Larson added. "There was alot of excitement in the gym;' he said.

The biggest challenge for the team was the lack of practice time as ateam . The JV team did not have enough numbers, so they combined with varsity during practice.

With the foundation they built on this year, there is no doubt their talent will lead the way next year.

The Lincoln High Swimming and Diving Team pushed themselves to the limit this year. The swimmers and divers have really proven how good they are and how hard they can work as a team. "It's been a good season, we've improved a lot," Coach Richard Conradt said. "The team has committed themselves to working harder and improving." Their focus on being a "family" has provided a strong form of teamwork.

One notable a'thlete is freshman and newcomer to the team Ashlie Izzo. "Diving is my passion, Being a freshman and going to state is a crazy fe el," Izzo said. Her coach was even more proud of her, because she was the only diver to go to state. "He was very proud of me and expected for me to go to state," Izzo said.

In addition to having a diver going to state, some of the swimmers also showed improvement. Charlie Neibel for one said he wasn't good at swimming when he started during the summer of middle school. "I wasn't good, but my mom said I could do it for 3 weeks and soon I liked it." Neibel started during his freshmen y ear and it was one of his highlights. "I went to conference and did the 500m and when I got out of the water all the seniors and my teammatei cheered for me."

• • Aaron Wright has been on the swim team for 2 years, and this year he got the third place medal at the annual Cotter Invite held here at Lincoln High.

"What got me into swimming was a lot my friends on cross country. I also wanted to work out during the winter time and was the perfect place to go," he said. "Our coach has really pushed us!" Wright explained.

First year swimmer, Henry Lagrimini has also improved since he started. "I swam for other teams, and my twin sister Emma was on the team last year and enjoyed it," Wright said. One of his highlights was his first major competition with other schools during the Cotter Invite.

So with all this success has there really been an outstanding swimmer? According to Coach Richard Conradt, "They all have had outstanding improvement. List the roster!"

wrestling. Fast forward 11 years, Junior Chase White broke the dry spell. It's safe to say that a new decade has begun in Lincoln High's wrestling program.

Not only did White win the state medal in the 145lb weight class, he also had 100 wins and a perfect season.

"He put in a lot of off season time," replied Head Coach Andrew Genrich. " ... it was expected." Like any athlete a lot of joy can come when winning a state championship.

"You've probably heard about me lifting up Genrich", White replied. "I was happy and felt accomplished." Last year White finished in second at state. "We weren't trying to put pressure on him but we knew he was capable of winning state this year," explained Genrich. White was surely capable and he did prove to himself and everyone that he could take state.

Not to be outdone, the rest of the wrestling team also improved as a whole. Manager Mimi Doung said, . "I know that each every guy in that room pushed each other to their limits and we had a really good season." Team moral even went up also. Coach Genrich explained how the wrestlers were supporting, critiquing, and videotaping other teammates. All of this work paid off when five wrestlers were sent to state. They were, Zac Spence, Whit Dawkins, Travis Roepke, Jamal Hill, and Chase White . Senior Whit Dawkins placed 6th and Junior Chase White placed 1st.

"The guys that weren't in a close match kept wrestling, and they didn't give up," Coach Genrich explained. From 88lb Evan Sackett to 285lb Travis Roepke, the wrestling . team proved that it's not about wins or losses but the heart' and soul of the team.

Ashlie Izzo (9) was the only diver to qualify for State this year from the Swimming and Diving team. "At the beginning of the year, I told everyone to watch out, and it turned out I held myself to that statement, being the only one from the entire aquatic team to make it to state, as a freshman. Although I faced a few unexpected bumps along the way and at state, I've overcome them all. I believe everything happens for a reason, and doing better than 11th at State is a goal for next year:'

As the halls begin to crowd, students franticall y move around looking for classmates to say their last good byes. To sign their Yearbook so when they look back fifty years from now, they will remember these four years of their lives. Seniors move away to start a new chapter of their lives while the rest of the school moves up a grade, getting closer to that point. Your generation will be the one that changes the world, for good or bad. It's your choice, so make it happen. And please check back soon for future updates.

It was nice doing it, because it may be the only present they get. People donated the gifts, and their parents got to pick what they would get. It was nice to have a role in helping them have a good holiday.

We played some different styles this year. The Rock Concert was my favorite concert of all time, because you could be yourself and play music the way you wanted to.
