Students and staff didn't just sit around watching TV over the summer, they took advantage of their vacation this year. Some Links went out of state, some went out of the country, some lended a helping hand, and some stayed home and created memones that will last a lifetime.
Many Links spent a lot of their summer outdoors enjoying the fresh air. Students and staff took roadtrips, vacations and went on hikes in famous tourist spots. Some Links spent their time under the sun and in the water at the beach, both in and out of the United States. A few Links spent their summer in the water but competitively. Others even traveled for a cause and helped those who needed it most. You don't always have to travel to have a fun summer. Many Links stayed in Lincoln and made memories that will last forever.
As we know, summer can't last forever. After going on hikes, meeting new people, traveling to new places and having once-in-a-lifetime opportunities, students and staff came back to school to share their stories with classmates and colleagues.

Link Crew is a collection of current students who come together to use their strengths to help incoming freshmen get accustomed to high school life. On August 12, 2019, Link Crew helped guide the freshmen to their classes and introduced them to the school as part of Freshman Orientation, a day just for ninth-graders.
Link Crew consists of current juniors and seniors who chose to sacrifice their last day of summer to come and help the freshmen. During Freshman -Orientation, Link Crew members played games with the freshmen, which gave them an opportunity to meet new people. They were then split into four groups: Tradition, Unity, Diversity, and Excellence, which are the four links of Lincoln High.
The Link Crew Leaders not only played games with the new Links, but they also ate lunch with them so that they felt more welcome.
"It was crazy," freshman Collin Nick said about his first day. "But it was very welcoming. It felt like family as soon as I walked in the building."
"I liked being able to help kids that were lost and confused on first day and liked being able to share experiences," senior Delani Young said.
Lincoln High has a very diverse community , and this is shown in part through the Link Crew members People from a multitude of backgrounds come together to help the underclassmen
"I wanted to join to show that athletes can do it , too , and if you are an athlete that is not the only thing you can do ," senior football player Michael Terrano said.
Terrano is an example of a student who is involved in multiple activities. Using the Link Crew Leaders' different assets , the freshmen got a better idea of all of the activities that are offered at LHS and were ready for a new beginning.
Link Crew has been an official group for 10 years and is currently lead by Shelley Swartz., "We get to work with some of the best juniors and seniors in the building, and those students come from so many different walks oflife" , Swartz said " We have kids who are athletes, kids who are in band , kids who do theatre kids who just want to be part of link crew So I think thos e hundred plus students that help us every year are the best representat ives of Lincoln High and I feel really fortunate that every year I get to be inspired by them and I get to work with them and see all the great things they do for our incomin freshmen." Swartz said.

Everybody needs a br~ak, and this year's Festivus celebration was designed just for that purpose . Festivus has been a Lincoln High tradition since the fall of 1999 where students leave their classes early to spend the rest of the day playing games and having fun outside and inside.
Clubs raise money by selling food, drinks, activities, or trinkets, and students and staff get to blow off steam playing games or dancing to a DJ This year's Festivus was held on September 27, 2019, and the rain made most of the games and stands be inside, but that didn't ruin the students' fun.
Junior Basmala Hamad said, "Festivus is relaxing and it's fun to talk and hang out with friends I don't see often."
Freshman Mariah Dyas said, "I enjoyed the obstacle courses and I liked how there was a variety of food there."
In addition to giving students some time off, it's also a way to help them make new connections
Freshman Madison Cropp said, "It was fun to hang out with friends I don't see through the day, and I got to meet some new people."

Homecoming is a time for celebration and cheer. Lincoln High celebrates Homecoming with an annual dance, pep rally, and Athletic Hall of Fame induction. During the pep rally, all three Lincoln High cheerleading teams performed a cheer as well as a dance.
"The seniors were in charge of creating the performance," Senior Varisty Cheerleader Anna Robinson said. "We practiced each aspect of the performanc (dance, cheer, and chant) separately until we had them perfect by themselves and then we put them together."
The Lincoln High Pomalinks performed one of the dances they learned at UDA dance camp, and the new World Drumming class played one of the pieces they learned during class.
"Everyone came prepared and I felt that the whole team and overall crowd were pleased with the performance," Sophmore Pomalink Lily Whitmore said. "I was pretty nervous before the performance, the nerves became real when all the students started to come in. However when we got into our beginning formation I felt ready. I was very happy right after the dance and watching it again later that day."
The Fall Color Guard performed an excerpt with Marching Band from their showcase this year. Next, Student Council put together a game of HORSE on the basketball court. Four teams of students and teachers spun with their heads touching the end of a baseball bat, then had to attempt to make a basket. Senior Owen Calkins was one of the players.
"It was fun to be apart of the pep rally," Calkins said. "You can really feel the school spirit. It was exciting to be on the court as all of my peers cheered."

The Lincoln High Varsity Football Team went into this year coming off a hot season. Some teams might look at losing 3 2 key players negatively, but the Links decided to use it to their advantage.
They struggled at the beginning of the season but by the Homecoming game they had it figured out. The Links beat Omaha Benson in a shutout, 55-0. They came out strong in the first half scoring 28 points and finished strong by scoring 26 more points.
Head coach Mark Macke was overall happy with they game and how the team played.
"The team played with a new-found energy," Macke said. One of the Links Quarterbacks sophomore Ja Reese Lott-Busby had a great game completing multiple touchdown passes and even a 21-yard run to the endzone. Junior Parker Vyhlidal(l 1) said, "Everything that could go right went right."
The win meant something special to him and the team because it was their first win this season, and it was the Homecoming game. This raised their spirits and and gave them a new energy for the upcoming games.

The theme of the Homecoming Dance on October 11th was Enchanted Forest. The Dance was planned by Lincoln High School Student Council members . They were in charge of buying and placing all of the decor included for the dance. Student Council hung flowers and trees from the windows of the hallway leading to the dance in south gym.
Students were able to buy snacks and drinks during the dance, located at the end of the hallway. Students also took advantage of an interactive photo booth to make lasting memories.
At the end of the night two people from each respective grade were crowned royalty. Nominees were voted by their peers for the first round of voting. This round of voting resulted in eight students from each grade advancing to the final round of voting. From this the winners were announced on Homecoming night.
"It was a surreal moment when they announced my name ," senior Homecoming Queen Parker Johnson said "It took me by surprise, because being a transfer from Waverly , and I wasn 't aware that many people knew me," she said.
"It was really unexpected at first when I head about it ," senior Homecoming King Daniel Do said. "But after the first round , I really wanted to win it. In retrospect, I think it'll be one the h ighlights of my high school experience "
"I had a big smile on my face," freshman Lady Jessica Taylor said. "Honestly I was surprised ," she added.
Taylor said Homecoming was important to her because it was her first high school dance, and she was shocked that her classmates made her one of the nominees for LHS Royalty

Lincoln High's fans are known to be wild ones, and this year is no different. Students brought, and continue to bring, chants, cheers, and tons of energy to Lincoln High games. Each game had fun themes that students and fans loved.
"It was super fun to come up with the themes," senior Breanna Harris said. "But the stressful part is seeing if the student body is going to be receptive to them."
Harris is one of the main students who decides the themes for the games, but she isn't the only person who makes the decisions. Seth Beaty, Tyler Schumacher, Elijah Riley, and members of Student Council also helped with coming up with themes. They decide based on what was popular.from past seasons and their own fun- ideas.
This year's themes included Camo Night, Pink Out, Blackout, Tie Dye, and Patriotic.
From a student perspective the games are just as exciting whether the team is winning or losing. "We always loved cheering at all games even ifwe were losing badly," Freshman Semhar
Hailesellassie said . Hailesellassie is a member of pep band and goes to almost all games.
Like most students she agrees that games are an exciting part of high school that she loves, and having at active student section makes them even more fun.

The 8th Annual Hoops for Hope event had many talented teachers play on both teams for 2019. Between the Red and Black team, the Black team won with the score of 64-62. The Lincoln High teacher vs. teacher basketball game gives a diverse group of teachers every year a chance to have a great time while raising money for the Make-A-Wish foundation. As well as providing teachers the chance to play with their colleagues, it gives select students the opportunity to coach the teams. More students get the opportunity to be referees for the game. It's a great break for students and teachers alike to have fun together in a non-classroom atmosphere, while raising money for an amazing cause.
"We were very confident in our ability to win this year," black team player and ELL teacher Mar'Lakuittia Overstreet said. Overstreet was one of the outstanding players, by making many of the first shots for the black team. All in all both teams really showed their strengths this year which made it such a fun and close game.
"We get together professionally with students and staff, and have just a great time. For such a beautiful cause," English teacher and cheerleader for the black.team, Deborah McGinn said. The Lincoln High tradition started out as a Social Studies project. The project was started by previous Lincoln High Social Studies teacher, Becky McLaughlin. Ever since 2011, this fundraiser was a fun event for teachers and students to get the chance to shoot hoops, cheer, and support a good cause.

Student Council kicked off their week-long Respect Campaign with the annual free Bands Against Bu.Hying event that started about 7 to 8 years ago. Many talented local bands performed in the Ted Sorensen Theatre on Friday, January 24th. The bands consisted of Smells Like Bold, Zeph Siebler, Motel Citizens, and Emma Hamer. The goal of the concert was to promote the respect of others and to spread anti-bullying awareness.
"I know what it's like to be bullied and I absolutely hate bullying because of it," junior event Coordinator Grace Versaw said. "I love what the event stands for, and any chance I can get to put an end to bullying, I take that opportunity."
From its name, it's clear what the event's goal was, wanting to help end something that constantly torments students in school daily. "The goal of the event was for everyone to take a stand against bullying of every kind," Versaw said. And although she's unsure the goal was achieved, she remains hopeful.
"It's hard to tell whether that was achieved, but I have faith that the people who pledged to stand against did and continue to stand against bullying," she added.
The event was meant to create an impact, not only on those who attended but to all students.
"I wanted everyone to learn more about bullying and why not to do it," Versaw said. "I wanted to encourage everyone to stand up against bullying and try to discard some of the negativity that exists in this society."
Overall, Bands Against Bullying was a fun and informative learning experience. "I will most definitely l-Je helping with this event in the future," Versaw said. ''I'll even be back after I graduate, maybe not to help but to support the event."

Downtown Lincoln, on January 20th 2020, at 9 a.m., the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Youth Rally & March event is fully in action. At the rally, LHS students such as seniors Azcia' Fleming, Jaxson Barber, Tristan Swift, and juniors Makhi Fleming and Malik Fleming - who have all been planning the event for months - are finally going to be able to present what they've been working on. The pre-rally starts at 9 a.m. at the University of Nebraska Student Union, but the union is already packed at 8:30 a.m. The event starts off with the pre-rally and World Drumming from Lincoln High drumming. Senior Azcia Fleming has been on the committee for nine years. Every year since fourth grade she has come back to the podium and given her speech in front of a large audience.
"There's a difference between being inspiring and being motivating," Fleming says. "Because as Pete Ferguson say, motivation leaves the room when you do, but inspiration will last for a lifetime." The event is extremely important for many people. It's a chance to share their stories, beliefs, and inform others about historical icons such as Rosa Parks and not~so-well-known figures such as Claudette Colvin.
The Planning Committee ~as created by Dr. Leola Bullock in 1993 and was created because Bullock knew that the future was in the youth's hands. The responsibility of being the head of the committee was passed down to Pete Ferguson in 1998. Now the event has 25 years under its belt, and hopefully more to come.
"The Planning Committee knows if we want the City of Lincoln to truly be an inclusive community and this state to reflect our state's slogan (The Good Life) for all we all need to "walk" together toward, kindness, civility, justice, and equity," Ferguson said. This year's theme was "Walk Together," and during the months that the Planning Committee worked on the event, they also met and interviewed multiple people about their "walks" which are their life experiences. The people who are interviewed, who usually were community leaders, local people, youth, or celebrities then donated their shoes, whfch explains the shoe showcase at the Union.
"I thought that there was a great turn-out for the event this year, and next year we should work to get even more people to attend, because there is no such thing as too many people hearing the message," LHS senior Jaxson Barber said. The event was a great way for people to connect with each other. All ages from all around Lincoln came to the Union and supported the event. The Call to Action Program allowed young scholars to have an outlet for their voices, letting them inform others about history and giving the audience an influential message.
Despite the bitter cold weather this year, many people still marched to the Capitol as is the tradition. Even though most of the LHS members are seniors who can't participate in the Planning Committee anymore, they still want to come back for the event next year, wishing for the number of youth to increase and attend more than ever.

Every Friday morning in room 123during first and second periods, the Vocational Job Practice class sells coffee, tea, hot cocoa and other tasty treats from The Mill and The Cookie Company at the LHS coffee shop known as "Common Grounds." School Counselor Rebecca Tegeler and Life Skills teacher Carrie Brison created the class three years ago in February. The class didn't start out as an official class, it started out with little lessons throughout different classes, but once they knew it would be a success, Common Grounds became the new coffee shop at LHS.
"During the week, Monday-Thursday, our class or kids, learn different types of skills like filling out job applications, doing interviews, and how to solve work conflicts," Brison said. Common Grounds isn't only about coffee, it allows the student baristas and workers to practice their job and social skills in a familiar environment. Common Grounds also lets the students connect with everyone at school, teachers, staff and even other students.
"Common Grounds believes we are expanding connections and job skills, one cup_at a time," Tegeler said. Girls Varsity Basketball Coach Kelley-Johnson has been a strong supporter since the program began, she has also brought several players to the coffee shop every week while also interacting with the student baristas. Common Grounds gave back the support and offered to pay for the first one-hundred students that showed up to the District final game.
"It's a lot of fun to see our students be able to function in a workplace. It gives me a lot of hope for their future. To be able to provide them the opportunity to learn it here and have that hands-on experience," Paraeducator Shelby Ingersoll said. Whether the job is a barista, deliverer, or in charge of the cash register, each student has a role that is important to operating Common Grounds.

The 2020 Winter Pep Rally included many activities and events that showed our Lincoln High pride.
The rally began with the freshman cheerleaders performing with their amazing skills. The first event we got was a Basketball Knockout Game which was very suspenseful between staff and students. It was a very intense game and the crowd cheered for all of the players.
Associate Principal Joshua Lupher hung in there but was eventually defeated by senior Nyayongah Gony who went on to win the overall contest.
We also recognized many of our students who participate in different kinds of activities and events during the winter season including winter sports teams such as Girls and Boys Basketball, Wr,estling, and the Swimming and Diving team.
Other groups that were recognized for their hard work were the One Act Play Production Cast and Crew, Momentum Show Choir, Speech and Debate teams, the Musical Cast and Crew, the Slam Poetry Team, the Links Yearbook, Advocate, aµd LinksLIVE! Staffs, SCRIBE, and the Bowling and Powerlifting teams.
We also had many amazing performers such as the Pomalinks, Cheerleaders, Winter Color Guard, Swing Choir, and the amazing IIG Step Chain.
With so many talented members of these teams and groups, we know LHS will be well-represented this· year.

The read-in, which was a Lincoln High tradition for many years, was brought back by ELL teacher (and LHS alum) Mar'Lakuittia Overstreet . Media Center staff Paula McClung, Carter Hulinsky, Mike Reinmiller, and Loree Woods, as well as Shelley Swartz and Student Council all pitched in to make the day a huge success.
Teachers brought their classes, and students and staff took turns reading a variety of works from Black authors and figures from history including poems, short stories, personal narratives, and artwork.
The Media Center was full almost every period , and on some days it was filled to overflowing.
"Out of all the years that I've been at LHS, as a student and as a teacher , this was the biggest and most participation that I have experienced from the community members, teachers, and students," Overstreet said. "I appreciate everyone who supported this event and our students at LHS. This is one way of many to continue to see positivity in our building and bring students and all staff together."

I There are many advantages to being the oldest high school in the city. One of them is that your building becomes multigenerational. Over time Tradition turns into Legacy. We reached out to current Lincoln High students to let us know if anyone else in their families went to LHS. The response and the stories we got was amazing. Some families have five generations of Links! They all have different stories from different eras and different perspectives, but the one thing all of them have in common is their pride in being a Link. Because no matter how much time passes, not matter how long it's been since you walked these halls, there's something that stays the same: Once a Link, Always a Link.

LHS has stepped up their game a bit with the new and improved trends and fashion. Lincoln High has a great deal of diversity and different ways of people expressing themselves. Whether it's brands like Champion, Pink, Vans, Nike, or just creative dressing like ripped or mom jeans, '80s style, crocs or fur sandals. Everyone around Lincoln High has a style that fits them.

When you think of Black leaders, you probably think of people like Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King. Jr., Rosa Parks, Medgar Evers. or Fannie Lou Hamer.
But have you ever thought about who Nebraska's Black Leaders have been?
Lincoln High students involved in the NAACP Youth Chapter, led by LHS teacher Mar'Lakuittia Overstreet, participated in a celebration of Nebraska's Black Leaders on January 25. 2020 at the Nebraska History Museum in downtown Lincoln to help educate people about these important figures in Nebraska's history.
Students gave multimedia presentations about a variety of leaders, many from Lincoln. These included State Senator Ernie Chambers , Jake Kirkland. Jr. Lt. Colonel Paul Adams of the Tuskegee Airmen, JoAnn Maxey , Dr. Michael W. Combs , Juanita McWilliams, Thomas H. Warren, Dorothy Eure. and Bertha Calloway, an African-American community activist and historian in North Omaha, Nebraska who founded the Negro History Society and the Great Plains Black History Museum.
Other events included original poetry and spoken word inspired by Lincoln's Black leaders performed by Joanna Calel and Aczia Fleming, , artwork by Kevin Dominguez and Lizeth Pesina Cruz , and presentations by Riek Bol, Nyankoor Timothy, and Nyoka Lasu. There was also a virtual visit to the Great Plains Black History Museum with its director. Eric Ewing.
There was also a community art project by ArtReach, and a live reenactment by the ''Descendants of DeWitty" who took the audience back in time to the interracial Cherry County settlem~mt by portraying the people who lived in this historic area:
DeWitty. later known as Audacious, was the largest and longest-lasting African American settlement in rural Nebraska.
Actual descendants of DeWitty re-enacted stories of the settlement and its people, accompanied by historic photographs.
By an amazing coincidence. one of the Nebraska leaders chosen by the NAACP students, Dorothy Eure, was also the daughter of one of the founders of DeWitty.
The program and events were free and open to the public.

Cross country is a very tough, rigorous sport, but this never stopped the 30 talented girls on our cross country team from going above and beyond the limits.
"Our girls this year are not just amazing athletes, but student athletes as well," Head Coach Brad Rettig said.
There were six seniors this year and five of them were returning, including returning senior Meghan Bade.
"Our best meet was probably the first Kearney meet, because we won the meet and a lot of people got their personal records," Bade said.
That's right, this year our team won the first Kearney meet on September 12th, along with other amazing meets such as the run at Bryan High School on September 28th.
The fre shmen this year did an exceptional job, including state runner Kennedy Bartee. She placed 12th in districts with an impressive time of 20:43. Bartee was the only runner of all cross country to make it to state, placing 84th.
"I plan on running throughout high school and in college also," Bartee said.
Our cross country team was super close and loved to be around one another. The team highly encourages you to try cross country. Freshman Manishika Balamurugan said
"I absolutely love our team. If you're thinking of doing cross country you definitely should try it out. Cross country is a sport for everyone and if you train hard you will be successful."
Boys Cross Country has done a fantastic job with their efforts and improvements they produced this season. Time may have passed but the memories that were made will never be forgotten. Training and practicing for days, then going to the meets. But the most important thing is having fun while running is what cross country is all about. Running uphill is much harder than running on flats but if you practice and push yourself, you will be able to beat the hills.
"I run cross country because it's good for my health and I'm also good at it," freshman Jackson McNeese said. McNeese got 17:10 for a SK during a race at Pioneers Park on October 4th which is his best personal record. "My favorite moment of the season is summer running because I got to meet new people and had a fun time," McNeese said. McNeese plans to join Lincoln High's Cross Country team again next year. '
"Having a rival is a good way to make yourself push harder and get better as well," McNeese said
"We do stretches before and after running," senior Colin Henshaw said. Henshaw has gotten faster as a runner over the past 4 years of cross country.
"I learned how to help my teammates get better and faster," Henshaw added. Henshaw as a freshman got a high 21 :00 as his personal record. Now as a senior he got a little over 19;00 as his record. "I like watching the kids working hard and grow," coach Brad Rettig said.

Football takes a lot of grit to compete in, and even though the varsity football Links had a tough season, they showed a lot of that determination. Coming off a winning season last year and losing a multitude of key players, the team had big shoes to fill, which the senior captains did.
Led by Coach Mark Macke, and nominated by their fellow teammates, seniors Jack Cosson, Michael Terrano, Davis Buchanan, and Parker Raszick were the Links team captains.
"It's such an honor being voted on by your teammates to lead your team," Buchanan said. "Being a captain holds a lot of weight since you are constantly being looked up to by the underclassmen."
The team described this year as a year of rebuilding and creating more of a family atmosphere. Culture is a big thing at LHS, so the football team has tried to become closer with one another throughout the season. In fact Cosson's favorite memory was of the team bonding dinners that were held the night before every game.
"Team dinners with lots of food is like a big connection circle," Cosson said. This gave everyone an opportunity to get to know one another better.
"The senior class in general as been, by my standards, a stand-out because they didn't quit on us," coach Macke said. "The seniors led by a good example. We are in the process of reestablishing a good sound, solid culture at Lincoln High, and by that I mean the seniors have showed up, they practiced hard, and we rewarded them by playing them, and that's something we want to do moving forward," Macke said.
In addition to becoming closer, the Links worked hard on the field throughout the season.
"The boys responded well to the captains which made us perform better as a team," Terrano said.

Freshman Football Coach James Watson was thrilled by the way his team was playing.
One of coach Watson's most memorable games was against Norfolk. LHS was down and short on players due to illnesses and injuries. The team rallied, and by the end of third quarter they were in the lead.
"It shows the GRIT that Mr. Larson talks about," Watson said. "These guys were tired, undermanned and could have easily quit being down three scores, however they persevered and came out and fought to the bitter end."
Even though they didn't win that game, Watson felt good about the way they played. "I couldn't have been prouder the these young men," Watson said.
Out of all games Coach Watson's favorite was against North Star were he got to reunite with old LHS coaches that are now at North Star coaching. He felt that their toughest opponent was Southeast because they had lots of good and talented players.
"It was a very fun group of young freshman and young talents," Watson said.
"I feel like the whole team played well," Head coach for JV /Reserve football Lucus Varley said. "It's we over me."
"They were a great group of kids and I look forward to coaching the next year's-group."
Varley also gave some advice to future LHS players. "Learn from your mistakes and failures now rather than in your Varsity year and you have the potential to get a scholarship."
Sophomore JV /Reserve player Russell Curtis played defensive end.
"I've played with Lincoln High for about 2 years now," Curtis said. Playing against Pius was the team's best game, according to Curtis. "We had some good moments and we pulled through till. the end and that's all that matters."
After high school, Curtis plans to play a sport but he's not sure which one. He thinks he'll do whatever comes first or whatever he thinks will work best for him.
Sophomore quarterback JaReese Lott-Buzby has also been on the team for 2 years. He also mentioned the Pius game.
"I feel like this isn't a football team, it's more like a family. Everyone shared this high energy at every game."

The Girls Varsity Golf Team entered in a brand new season with a fresh new team this year. Elizabeth Garza, the only senior on the team, led five girls - junior Lydia Skold, sophomores Conleigh Hemmer, Leilani Bell, Etienne Doerr, and freshman Tess Lawsonthrough a fun and competitive season Even though some of the girls weren't very experienced in golf, that wasn't a problem.
"I improved a lot from last year both in actual form and understanding of the rules," Doerr said
"I was surprised on how well the newer people did," Hemmer said. Garza and most agreed that their toughest opponent was Southwest.
"They are all really good, and they've been playing for a long time," Garza specified.
Everyone on the team had a bond and special connection formed, through practice and all the meets. ·
"I loved everything, I just love my golf team so much, we're like one big happy family," Garza added .
"They worked really well together and never had any issues. They wanted to get out there to play and have fun," coach Larry Elwood said.
This ~eason the golf team made great improvements from last year, despite a young team. Every person grew as an individual with the help of a loving team. Although none of the players qualified for state, all the girls had fun and enjoyed the season.

Perseverance is the ability to continue on even when the ending seems inevitable. Throughout the last year, the softball team may have looked like they had lost many valuable players - such as their starting pitcher from last year - but this gave the opportunity for others to step up and lead the team, such as Kayla Farmer who went out with an ankle injury a couple weeks later. During warmups Farmer stepped into a divot and twisted her ankle. After this injury Farmer was out for the rest of the season.
"I appreciated how Olympia, Brittyn, and Makinley stepped up to pitch once I was hurt, I value their hard work and determination to do what was best for the team," Kayla Farmer said. It was then freshman Makinley Thomas' tum to lead the Links. Thomas was one of the main pitchers for the remainder of the season.
Sophomore center fielder Noelani Anderson said, "Knowing that my team has my back helps me get up in the morning and keep on going." Adding to this the softball team has focused on being a connected team. Anderson talked about how the team would talk and share stories during warmups and stretches before the games. Kiara Saddler's favorite game was against Omaha Bryan. They ended up winning 18-1 7 after recovering from a 1- 7 deficit in the second inning. The !,.inks struggled in the beginning of the game with defense and Omaha Bryan was finding ways to score on the Links. So, the Links knew they had work to do in order to secure the victory. Saddler says,
" We knew we had to work together as a better defense to stop them for scoring." The Links huddled up and talked about what they could do as a team. In tum of that discussion they came from behind to earn the victory over the Bears.
"We had to work hard to come back from that low score and it took dedication and an 'inner' desire to win," Saddler said. The inner desire that Saddler tells us about is what has lead to the wins of the season for the softball team.
"I am proud of the progress and leadership that the team had this year, it ma~e it a great time to be a coach," Head coach Fred Simpson said.

It takes a lot of durability and power to play softball, and our Lincoln High JV and Reserve teams showed that in their 2019-2020 season.
"We had lots of fun, most of all we improved from day one till the end of the season," Reserve Softball Coach Michelle Johnson said.
Every game was a challenge. The team only won one game on JV /Reserve, but they gave it their all. Sophomore Savanna said, "This year was lots of fun."
All of the girls each brought a special skill to the team. Each of their skills helped make the team become more dominant through the season.
Reserve Softball Coach Michelle Johnson said, "We had really good leadership from sophomore Emersyn Liljehom, and from sophomore ,Savanna Lovette."
They had good games like the reserve game at Doris Bair Softball Complex on September 14th. During the game they did very well, but the amazing part is they won this game against Lincoln Northeast after playing for hours on end. Reserve Softball Coach Jon Beiermann said, "I was very happy and proud they won the first game in High history." •
Overall, our Lincoln High JV /Reserve team did okay, but next year they plan to work harder to become even better. ·

"I don't get nervous at all for tennis," senior varsity tennis player Pablo Souto said. "Like I used to play violin, and I'd get really nervous playing in front of a concert and stuff," he added. "But for tennis I don't know, it's a lot easier to focus on the game, and I have been playing for so long at this point that it's just like going through the motions. No matter how many people are there, it's not going to affect me."
Tennis can affect people differently. For senior Chris Penas-Hull, playing in front of a crowd was once a problem.
"It used to bother me," Penas-Hull said. "I've done it enough now. I played in enough tournaments over the summer and whatnot. For the most part, I don't know, I just get out there and do it."
Souto and Penas-Hull play #1 Doubles, and they went to state.
"I started off the year playing two singles and then as the year progressed, I played doubles with Christopher," Souto said.
Even though they work as partners, the two players have different ideas when it comes to planning.
"Personally I think that [planning] is really important for tennis when I'm playing doubles and singles," Penas-Hull said. "When I'm playing doubles I'm trying to hit a serve down the T like the middle of the court because that makes it a lot easier for Pablo to get it and hit a volley off the return. Then just mixing it up and whatnot so some slice, a kicker hard flat ball. But in singles it's more complicated so I try to think further since there are not as many aspects to think about"
"I Ifke figure it out in the match what I'm going to do," Souto said. "I don't like to plan ahead. One time we were playing against an East team and Chris told me to hit it cross comer and stuff, and that really got in my head and I started messing up. So I try not to think about it until it comes."

The team had a winning season with 6 wins and 5 losses.
"The team finished with a winning record in dual meets, and we had players seeded in the top seven at the State Tournament," Coach Steve Ward said. "Everyone played with great effort and support for each other throughout the season."
Coach Ward was selected by the Lincoln Tennis Association as the 2019 High School Coach of the Year. He was recognized at the Woods Tennis Center banquet on September 29, 2019. "It was quite a surprise!" Ward said.

Junior Varsity and Reserve boys tennis teams at Lincoln High had some difficult opponents this year, but that didn't stop them from winning! The Reserve team went 5-4, and JV went 6-6 during their season for duels. Many players from last year improved, and according to JV Coach Torrey Escamilla
"It was really good for our guys to actually get experience, some of that success and continue to build from last year," For both teams, the city tournament was the culminating moment of the season. Reserve finished in 3rd and JV finished 4th place almost landing 3rd.
This year's JV and Reserve's tennis season was all about growth!
"Last year was like the first time I started playing tennis," sophomore JV tennis player Kai Crabb said. "The first practice was the first time I picked up a racket," Although Crabb was new to tennis, he still played well throughout the season. In a match against Southeast, he was down by a set and came back and won 6-4! His duel was an important factor for the results of the match against Southeast, which they won.
"Each time we transferred learning from practice to the meets," Reserve Coach Jerome · Ehrlich said. JV and reserve never stopped improving their skills and relationships.
"Next year, I think it looks really good," JV Coach Torrey Escamilla said. "Most of our JV guys are gonna probably gonna be moving down to that Varsity Range, " not only that, "They'll have a lot of growth ahead of them, and we have more guys I think that are c~ming from reserve that are quality and slip into JV,"

Many of the players have been involved with volleyball since they could walk. They've lived and breathed volleyball their whole lives. The amount they have grown in skill and how they have brought those skills into the Links volleyball program is tremendous. Ariel Buhr, Lincoln High Junior Varsity volleyball coach, explains her astonishment with the progress within the players and teams in her first two years here with the Links.
"I love seeing the progress and support our program is getting throughout these short two years."
Not only do the coaches and players notice the progress they've already made, they can see the potential they possess for future volleyball seasons. Defensive Specialist and JV /Varsity Swing , Sophomore Trinity Ross, describes the advanced communication skills the JV team had this year, and how she wants every future Lincoln High volleyball player to have that experience. Ross tells about the JV match against Pius on October 17th, that showed exactly what she sees for the future of the Lincoln High volleyball program.
"Our: team had great skills and great communication. We stood our ground but we knew Pius was a really good team so we knew it was going to be really hard to beat them."

What a lot of us didn't know is that Martinez has been dancing for 15 years and was once a Pomalink herself. Although many of the Pomalinks have been coached by their former coach for years, adjusting to a new coach was easy for the dancers,
"Going from Adrianne, our old coach, to Emily, it's been really fun for those who've been on the team with both coaches, because we get to work with new people and get to see how each coach runs the team and how hard each coach works and it's very touching," senior co-caption Salvador Diaz-Debose expressed about his new coach.
Along with a new coach, comes new opportunities. This year will be the first time in six years that the Pomalinks competed at the Nebraska State Dance Competition. The dancers competed in the Hip-Hop category against 10 other teams, and they placed 8th out of 10.
"State was a whole new ball game for us, but despite the nerves we got to go out and do what we love most. I was so proud of my team and how much we had accomplished," senior co-caption Cammie Chandler said. 70 Pomalinks

"our cheer season was an adventure," Varsity head coach Erica Kirkland said!
From trying out for the team, to taking on summer practices, learning and mastering the basics , and working alongside your teammates. This is not always easy, but links cheer always seems to do all that and represent LHS in the best way possible.
"We take so much pride in representing Lincoln High School, that we try to put a lot of energy into being the best" Kirkland said.
This year the cheerleaders worked extremely hard to be rewardarded with placing 3rd at state in a new division (Traditional performance category) . With state being a very intense experience the cheerleaders put in a tremendous amount of time and effort. They spent hours and hours practicing at various locations and held two "State Swaps" with both Northeast and Southeast to receive feedback.
"Much of our success can be credited to the passionate coaching that our freshman coach (Destiny) and JV coach (Kamaya) Provided. Both coaches were relentless when it came to building our confidence in stunts and cleaning up our dances," Kirkland said.
The state team consisted of girls and boys from all three teams. All the hours and sweat allowed them to walk into state feeling ready and proud no matter the outcome.

This season for the Girls Varsity Bas.ketball team was possibly one of the best seasons for Lincoln High in the past 20 years. They ended the season with the record of 17- 7! But that's not the only good thing that happened this year. The team built great relationships with their coach, Dominique Kelley who has been coaching the team for 2 years. Forming strong relationships was important for Coach Kelley this year, and one of the reasons why they had such a good season.
"I think what makes it easier to do my job is that I look like a lot of our kids, and I come from similar backgrounds from a lot of our kids, so it just makes it easier to have harder conversations with them, and to just say things that other coaches may not feel comfortable enough saying. I think that's what makes it so unique, but it also just makes it feel so much more real and so much more special," Kelley said. This year, the team constantly connected with each other, whether that was at practice, a team retreat, or even the occasional rap sessions they would have before their games.
"My favorite moment was whenever I heard my name, and when they called out the starting five and I would do a special handshake with my teammate," freshman Brianna Robinson said. Robinson was one of the special players who stayed on the court from start to finish. One of their most difficult opponents th.is season was city rival Lincoln East. Although they lost, Robinson said they still gave their effort. The team proved that to be a good team, working collectively together and being more competitive would be a gcod start to a good game.
"I love my team and I would do anything for them. Our team and school alone are very diverse and I love representing a great school and team," junior Kaysia Woods said.
Not only was this a great year considering the team's score on paper, it was a great season to gain new skills, beat new records, and to create and strengthen relationships.
Basketball takes strength, endurance, and dedication. The girls on the Freshman, Reserve, and Junior Varsity teams exhibited these skills and more throughout the Winter sports season.
"My favorite and proudest moment of the season was just in the fact that this group of girls didn't let certain outcomes or situations deter them from continuing to work together as a team and that they finished the season as better players and people," Freshman coach David Dyson said.
The girls on our teams really did work as a team, looking out for each other on the court and outside it. The relationships between the girls helped them communicate better during games. It would be hard not to notice the chemistry on the court.
"They've brought in to being a really good team and they play hard for each other and I really think that they have a good time," JV coach Autumn Zenon said.
All three teams gave amazing effort this year and it paid off. Even our injured players_pitched in to help the team win by cheering on their teammates out on the court. They didn't just win for the record, they won for each other. Our Reserve girls showed this sense of family when they beat Northeast both times they played them! These wins were especially fun for the Reserve team.
"My favorite moment of the season is when we beat Northeast twice It felt amazing because the Northeast coach is our coach's sister." Reserve player
Victorian Giebelhaus said
The JV team also showed this effort and teamwork at their game at the Papillion La Vista. This game was special to coach Autumn Zenon because of the heart the girls gave to the win at this game.
"When they were losing at the Papillion La Vista in the 3rd quarter, they really showed tremendous heart, they came back from a devisty and they played hard, they finished out and they banned together, they did what they needed to do to win." Zenon said.

This year's Varsity Boys Basketball team fought tooth and nail throughout a tough season, and they kept their spirits high and gave it everything they had.
Last year's team graduated nine seniors which made for a new and inexperienced team for this season. Senior J axson Barber led the team as really the only player with varsity experience.
The team worked hard all season and despite some tough losses started to tum things around when they defeated Omaha Bryan 78-63 on Saturday, Jan. 18, 2020.
Sophomore Antonio Murrillo and junior Livon Ramsey scored 14 points each, and sophomore JaReese Lott-Buzby contributed 10. But the big scorer was Barber with 2 7 points and hitting 15 of 19 free-throws for the night. .
Barber was averaging 22 points per game and he scored 24 points against Omaha Central and 22 against Millard North, and even-though the team couldn't rally their hard work into more wins, they still made us proud.
Barber, who completed the International Baccalaureate program at Lincoln High, is going on to play basketball at Emory University in Atlanta, GA where he plans to study biomedical engineering.
With.out Barber next year, we'll see if the experience the team gained this year will carry them through.

As many people know varsity is something to strive for. It is also something that you have to work hard for. The LHS basketball program is no exception. The main goal for the teams is to improve enough to move up to varsity to play in front of a larger crowd and to represent the school around the state. Freshman Andrew Gaines was a part of the junior varsity team. -He played in the position of point guard. When asked about his plans for the off-season Gaines told yearbook staff,
"I plan to get into the gym more and work harder. One of my goals is to become a better teammate."
The boys are not the only ones that need to work hard to move them up to varsity. Richard Ross was the boys freshman basketball coach. Being the freshman coach brings a lot of responsibility. A lot of the players are not ' used to playing in a high school environment which means a lot of the work they do involves acclimating the players to a new environment.
"The best game we played was probably against Grand Island. They were one of the toughest opponents we defeat ed." Ross said.
The Links went on to win that game 57-54. Basketball is a sport with many difficulties you have to overcome. Which makes the wins so much sweeter. This is also another reason for the Links to keep working hard for next season.
"With all the losses this past season, it motivates the team to be better for next year and to become a harder working team" Gaines said.
Even on the reserve team, team improvement was what they wanted most.
"We all played off one another and were hitting all our shots. We were able to beat Millard South by 19 which was crazy and that was the best we played by far" Kai Crabb said. -

Swimmers take your mark! The starting bell sounds and Lincoln High's swimmers rocket off their blocks for the race. Members of the team are stationed at the end of the pool to cheer their teammates on to victory. Swim meets for Lincoln High mean two hours filled with adrenaline, shouting, and fun.
"The season went good and I made it to state for the first time ever" Senior Olivia West said, "I worked very hard this year and my hard work paid off. I dropped lots of time on all my events and I had a lot of fun my senior year."
This year's swim and dive team at Lincoln High made many improvements and new friendships. Lincoln High sent two of their four divers to state this year, Novalee Schimt and Isaiah Winston. Winston placed second at state finals and Schmit placed twelfth. One of the ways the team bonds is through pasta feeds the night before every meet.
"My favorite moment of the season would be the pasta feeds," Senior Breckin Killingsworth said, "Because it's a nice calm down before we go to meets , it's like a way to gather yourself, and interact with the team."
Over the course of four months, the swim and dive team spend almost everyday together at practice, leading to a tight-knit group of athletes. Another way the team bonds is by having connection circles at the start of practice some days, with questions about your favorite type of bug, favorite color, and favorite place to get water from.
"My favorite part of the season is always the people and the relationships that are built as a team," Senior Nella Maynard said, "We create a group that is like a family and everyone is always so supportive, inside and outside of the pool."

Unified Bowling Coach Lisa Thiessen s favorite moment of the season sums up the feeling of camaraderie a,nd inclusion on this year's LHS team
It happened at the first practice when she put four girls together on a team who didn't know each other. As practice was going on she heard three of them talking about putting their money together to buy fries Then the talking stopped.
Thiessen then asked what happened to the fries , and they responded that they were short a dollar Another athlete on the team responded with , "I have a dollar! " So they put all the money together and shared an order of fries. Including everyone. is what being a team is all about.
At the end of each season. Thiessen hands out what she calls Unity pins to those that display what Unity means The four girls with the fries each received one, along with two others players.
"The stand-out players this season would have to be Brynna Madison and Anna Castro." Thiessen said. "Anna had never bowled before, and once she started , she had her parents take her to practice and she really wanted to get better Brynna loves to bowl and was great at encouraging others. " Thiessen said.
Dylan Hartshorn has been on the Unified Bowling Team for three years When he first heard about Unified Bowling he really didn't want to do it. but with encouragement from his parents he decided to try it and is glad he did.
"I want to give a big shoutout to Brynna Madison and her sister Chloe Madison for helping me out these last three years ," Hartshorn said . "If I was doing something wrong Brynna would help me correct my problem. Her sister Chloe always kept us hyped She was always doing funny things or saying something funny ."
Hartshorn also made a point of thanking Coach Lisa Thiessen for all of her hard work and encouragement these last three years.
Unified Bowling is a six-week season plus two weeks for districts and state In Hartshorn's opinion their toughest opponent this year was Southeast. They were a tough team so that made the team focus even more LHS finished as district runners up , losing to Southeast , and although they did not participate at State this season, they still felt good about the experience
As Hartshorne is a senior. it was hard to lose this year. but he knows he played hard along with the rest of his team. It's not only about winning but also making new friends and encouraging them and helping them bowl better , he said. The team won 3 of the 4 matches this season.
There will be seven bowlers returning for next season. Several returning bowlers will have varsity experience and a year under their belts as bowlers but the team will lose veterans: Brynna ' Madison , Dylan Hartshorn and Melanie Hornby The team should come back being very competitive and having a ton of fun.

Wrestlers create a different type of bond than any other sport. They see themselves more as a brotherhood, rather than just a team. Wrestling seems as if it's an individual sport, but one win, or one loss, affects the whole team. Win as a team, lose as a team. Senior, Jackson Okereke, says
"I see us being more as brothers and we should focus on winning and paying attention to winning, instead of just being comfortable with losing."
Their main goal of the season is to continue to work hard and to show that you can't break the chain. At the Plattsmouth JV wrestling tournament, the Links wrestlers won with 149 team points, and the second place team finished with only about 120. A few of the individual wrestlers, such as Senior, Parker Raszick, won first in his weight class at Plattsmouth High School. Raszick's advice for future wrestlers, is
"The first year is hard, and for the first year wrestlers and freshman guys wrestling right now, keep going out every year because it gets better."

''Good morning , Lincoln High. Welcome to LinksLIVE! the Lincoln High Morning News Show!''
Students and staff started their second period class each day this year hearing those words being spoken by a variety of LHS journalists taking turns anchoring the first-ever LHS daily news program. Teachers broadcast the show. which contained news. video, and important announcements. in their classrooms all through the building.
The Broadcast Journalism students, under the direction of Journalism Adviser Greg Keller, launched this new project with daily episodes starting on August 14. 2019. The shows were hosted on The Advocate Online website (LHSAdvocate.com ).
Near the end of the 2019 school year. Principal Mark Larson • approached Keller to ask if it would be possible for students to do a video broadcast of the daily news rather than the old method of having the Sound Announcements read by staff via the intercom Most students either couldn't hear the announcements due to classroom noise, or just weren 't interested in listening to them. So the Broadcast Journalism class was put on the schedule. and recruiting began.
This groundbreaking staff had to learn all of the technical aspects of video production while at the same time producing a daily news show starting the first week of school. The work was difficult and sometimes stressful, but they rose to the challenge.
The response was very supportive.
"I can't believe the difference," social studies teacher Brian Goodbrake said. "For years I've had students ignoring or talking during the announcements Now everyone is watching the show every day.''
"This has truly been an awesome addition to the community."
Associate Principal Josh Lupher said.

The first members of LinksLIVE! from both semesters put out daily broadcasts of Lincoln High news to keep students and staff informed and up to date on the latest happenings.
With the exception of a few Tuesday PLC days near the beginning of the fir;t semester when thre were no communications periods, the crew never missed an episode. They celebrated their 100th episode on February 3. 2020.
And then came spring break and the COVID-19 Coronavirus which closed schools for the remainder of the school year.
"We were really hoping to go the full year without missing a show. but the virus had other plans," Keller said.
But the LinksLIVE! crew rose to the challenge and actually- continued ' producing episodes by filming remotely during the school closure. Using their Chromebooks, Google Drives. and the apps MyVRSpot and WeVideo. students were able to shoot, store, and edit the broadcasts from home.
The continuity helped keep students and staff connected, even though we weren 't toget~er in person. Counselor Becky Tegeler appreciated being kept informed. "It is one thing that has been a constant:· she said.
Students and staff were able to contribute photos. video messages and other announcements for the show that provided a central place for everyone to get important information. especially as conditions changed during the pandemic.
All in all, they produced 17 episodes during the closure, with the last show airing on May 22nd, the day after the last day of the school calendar. Freshman Cate Frederick anchored the majority of those episodes.
With reopening plans still up in the air for next year. the future is uncertain. But whatever happens, count on LinksLIVE! being there in some form for the Lincoln High communi y.
"Thanks for watching our broadcast. and we'll see you again next time on LinksLIVE!" Link LIVE! 171

The International Baccalaureate Program is a challenging and rigorous program, for students who want to push themselves with new challenges. Freshman Pre-IB student, Abba Yagub, explains her reasoning behind joining 1B and why others should as well,
"I think the 1B program is a good way for people to enable themselves to challenges and set better goals for their future." The program begins your freshman year as the Pre-IB Program, along with your sophomore year, but once you are a junior and senior, you have the real deal. Some of the classes the program includes, can be counted as college level courses, creating a real challenge for the students. Junior in the 1B Program, Katie Smith, talks about what keeps her in the program,
"Both of my sisters were a part of IB and they both had good experiences, so I wanted to try it for myself. It's a challenge, but I think it will really help prepare me for college."
The teachers and directors of the International Baccalaureate Program work hard to make sure students continuously challenge themselves in school, and to not limit themselves to what they can achieve. Sean Putnam, an 1B science teacher, shares his input about some things the program encourages you to do,
"Challenges come every day and we should never shy away from those things that have the biggest impact, and we should always focus on striving to become better today than we were yesterday. Too often students & teachers take the easier path, and that limits our potential and opportunities in life."

"This year was bigger, there was more body visuals and more color compared to the years past," Drum Major junior Cammile McWillams said.
This year's show "Shinobi" was based off of traditional Japanese theater and tells the legend of the ninja, the rose petal , and landscape This made the show more interesting and exciting The show wasn't a traditional machining show. It had non-traditional marching and dance moves in the show , and the music was also non-traditional music.
They ran into a little problem with the judges; some of the older judges didn't like or didn't quite understand what the show was really about. Which made it more difficult to compete in the finals The band competed in many competitions this year.
"The most exciting competition was when we got called back for finals at Star Fest," Drum major senior Luke Moberly said.
There are only 10 bands that are called back to finals and the Links marching band made it. The Links marching band is like one big family They support and look out for each other.
"I felt anxious ~oing t_o a new school where I didn't know anyone," fereshman Merrick Pelan said. "A few people like Jayden Hood made it easy to make new friends and they were like my band parents ."

Strength, endurance, and a strong willpower are just some of the things you need when you're on a powerlifting team. This year's team had all of those traits, and more.
Daniel Beckmann is one of the coaches for the Powerlifting Team, and he was happy with the season.
"Coach Watson and I were very proud of how our Links competed in the three meets we competed in this year. We had many who set personal bests in the final meet of the year at Creighton Prep.
All our Links competed well, those who placed in meets were the following: Creighton Prep "Early Bird Meet" Jager Francis 2nd, Kayla Farmer 3rd, Kaleb Pence 2nd, Layla Buresh 3rd, Evan Rutsay 5th, Noelani Anderson 3rd & Azzariah Perry 5th.
At the Peru State meet: Derek Sullivan 5th, Kaleb Pence 3rd, Jager Francis 2nd, Givanna Nguyen 1st, Nedaa Majo 3rd, Isabel Smith 4th, Layla Buresh 5th, Bayla Young 1st, Kayla Farmer 3rd.
At state we had 13 Links compete with the following placing: Givanna Nguyen 3rd, Jager Francis 2nd, Azzariah Perry 5th, Nedaa Majo 2nd, Isabel Smith 3rd, Bayla Young 4th, Emersyn Liljehom 5th, Kayla Farmer 2nd, Kaleb Pence 5th. Each meet the lifters compete in the squat, bench and deadlift.
Beckman believes Creighton Prep and Lexington are always the toughest teams to compete against because of the number of lifters they have at every meet. They have many more lifters which allows them to earn more team points for placing than what LHS is able to do.
They don't go into a meet trying to compete against them because of that reason, they go into each meet competing with themselves trying to set new personal bests in each lift.
In total there were 6 senior powerlifters. Beckmann thinks that their best meet was the state meet at Creighton Prep. They loved the way the Link athletes competed and went all out to set new personal bests. Every lifter there gave great effort and displayed extreme confidence while trying to lift the heaviest weights they could.
The coaches challenged their Links to make sure they gave everything they had and they attacked that challenge head on. His favorite moment from the season was seeing all the Links powerlifters set new personal records.
"It is a special moment when you s_ee how the lifter responds after successfully completing a new PR squat, bench or deadlift," Beckmann said.

If you attended the Winier Pep Rally , you were probably .knocked out of your seat by the amazing performance from IIG , the Lincoln High Step Chain.
The group got its start in the early '90s and at first was made up of only males. but soon female students joined. IIG is short for "Together. " This step crew started really strong. and then other schools started to do step chains as well. It kept running until 2000 when students stopped performing.
But this year, that all changed. IIG made an exciting return all thanks to ELL teacher Mar'Lakuittia Overstreet and community volunteer Angela Pillow a.k.a Miss Gigi. Pillow helped Overstreet sponsor the group.
"The reason why I wanted to bring back IIG Step Chain is at a very young age I was steppin' and I knew how much fun it was , how it made you think and also be creative ,·· Overstreet said. "I loved the energy. how steppin' could tell a story. and how you can be an individual and express yourself while at the same time showing unity and precision.''
"I love Lincoln High , and I believe in the power of dance and all of the positive things it does for our youth in addition to keeping them fit," Pillow said . "There are so many things dance does, and that's what I love about it.''
In stepping, the body is used as an instrument to create rhythms and sounds through a combination of footsteps. claps and the spoken word , Overstreet said "As the sponsor. I strive to teach the foundation of step. I challenge the students to research , create their own choreography. and be the decision -makers in our performances," she added.
Junior Star Grandberry is a member of the resurrected IIG. Grandberry is incredibly flexible and is responsible for the incredible acrobatics during performances. For her being on the step team is really fun.
" I joined because I love to step and dance and I love making up choreography ," Grandberry said. She has been a part of IIG since October and has stayed with the group since.
Grandberry was able to learn a lot of new things being on the step team and she made a lot of new friendships along the way.
"I feel like everyone should join the step team ," she added. "It's really fun and we get to make up our own steps and dances." • I tell the steppers , "We will elevate one another ," Ovestreet said.

If you take a peek into most of the classrooms at Lincoln High you would see students taking notes while the teacher is lecturing at the white board. But if you take a look into the Links Yearbook classroom (308) you would see st ud e nts who diligently work to provide the school with a memory that they can keep forever.
Unlike other classes, the Yearbook staff publishes their homework for everyone to see. So they work hard to make sure it's just right.
During 5th period every day a group of students worked collaboratively to create stories and place photos to be published for hundreds of people at the end of the school year. Every piece of every page has been worked on by the staff during the production - process.
Senior Naomi Rodriguez has been a part of the yearbook staff for two years: her freshman year and her senior year.
"I really like doing all the editing and writing the stories," Rodriguez said. "I also like seeing the pages come together."
Senior Cammie Chandler has been on the Links yearbook staff for four years. As the editor-in-chief, she oversees what is going on throughout the entire yearbook.
"Being on yearbook staff for four years has been an amazing experience," Chandler said. "I have gotten the opportunity to help guide my classmates in creating a book for everyone."

W"My favorite part about piano is learning something new." Senior Kiara Saddler said, "It makes me feel good to know that I can actually learn how to play popular music today on the piano."

Every four years, the Lincoln High Music Department goes on a big trip with band, choir and orchestra combined. This year they went to Honolulu, Hawaii over spring break and performed at Pearl Harbor and the Ala Moana Center, the country's biggest open air mall. The trip lasted a full week and consisted of many fun activities for students, teachers and the chaperones to learn about the culture of Hawaii. The department went on a sunset dinner cruise, a hike to Diamond Head Mountain, a catamaran sail, and even a private island.
Fourth quarter of this school year didn't exactly go as planned. With all classes switching to online remote learning after the COVID-19 outbreak, students had to work at home on their computers.
"I'ni reading and FaceTiming my friends and also going outside to enjoy nature." Senior Livia Holbert said, "I probably miss the social aspect of it and the motivation of being in class. I miss physically being at school too because it makes you want to work more than just sitting at home."
This change was very hard for a lot of students at school, but many overcame the challenges that were thrown at them during this uncertain time.

It is easy for students to feel stressed or overworked at school, but many staff at LHS are trying to change that. The Community Leaming Center provides students with opportunities to succeed outside of the classroom. The program provides everything from clubs that relate to hobbies or tutoring for students struggling with classwork. It also provides them a place to feel safe and supported through whatever issues may arise. Chelsea Egenberger heads the entirety of the CLC program.
"Lincoln CLC's look to accomplish the following goals: successful students, thriving families , and strong neighborhoods," Egenberger said.
The Lin<:oln High Community Leaming Center is avai lable to students after school so that they can connect with peers, have a safe space to be, and so they can get the extra help that they are needing in order to succeed in the classroom Though LHS has only officially had a CLC program since 2019 , the community has had many other opportunities for students to thrive in their environment.
"No CLC looks the same because every school community is not the same " Egenberger said.
Since the CLC has been implemented the sponsors have been trying to customize the experience to LHS as an individual school and matching the amazing culture that Lincoln High already has adapted to. Instead of trying to change LHS, the sponsors have tried to incorporate the values into their programs
"Beyond our hope to be with you all again , we are excited to take lessons learned from this past year and consider how the LHS CLC can best support and strengthen the Lincoln High Community" Egenberger said
The CLC has many goals for the upcoming school year. As one can imagine the COVID-19 pandemic has hit them hard especially since they help so many students on a daily basis.
They cannot connect with as many students because of the distance and internet accessibility, but they have been able to partner up with the CLC program through Northeast High School. Throughout this unpresendented time the community learning center has been hard at work bringing students many opportunities to continue within the program without being able to meet in person. They are providing students with office hours by combining forces with Lincoln Northeast.
"Right now the LHS CLC is working with with the LNE CLC to offer •shared online office hours and a Google Classroom where we keep students up to date on various resources and online fun!" Egenberger said .

According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, the National School Lunch Program serves 30 million students lunch each day, with close to 22 million of those receiving free or reduced lunches, making it the primary source of nutrition for a plethora of students and detrimental to their health if school is not in session. New York City Public Schools, the country's largest school district with over 1 million students and an average of 900,000 meals served daily, provided grab-and-go meals for any student who needed it, which was mirrored by school districts around the country. Along with school districts, local restaurants, charities, churches and even teachers stepped in to make sure students did not go hungry by raising funds for grocery store gift cards and food banks, stuffing emergency food bags and even using buses to deliver food to those who could not pick it up from the school.

During the school closure, many LHS teachers and staff were thinking about others in our community--particularly ways that they could support one another.
"And just as we are all part of the broader Lincoln community, we are also a part of the more close-knit Lincoln High School community," social studies teacher Nancy Grant-Colson said. "In short, we're all Links and that identity matters."
It is in this vein of thought that she and social studies teacher Lindsey Herting asked for help.
"Much of this idea comes from the passion that we have and our excitement about the Lincoln High community and to have some positive impact during these really difficult times," Herting said.
Herting and Grant-Colson started by asking people to share the names of any local businesses that have a Lincoln High connection and then to make donations to those businesses to "support our fellow Links" by making purchases from LHS-connected businesses during these slow economic times.
The donations were then used to purchase gift cards and products -that were then shared with essential workers and first responders "to demonstrate our appreciation for Lincoln community members who serve our students, our staff, and our school every day," Grant-Colson said.
"Having this information helped us to know that our dollars are helping two families at once--the smaller Lincoln High family and, by extension, the broader Lincoln community family," Herting said.
"Lincoln High School is one of the few institutions in our community that was here--literally here, standing in this community--the last time that a public health emergency of this scale occurred. The Lincoln High School identity, the Lincoln High School spirit, even the Lincoln High School building itself weathered the storms of the 1918 influenza epidemic. No other high school in our city can say that.
210 Links Help Links
LHS teachers and staff raise money for LHS-affiliated business, buy gifts for essential workers
That continuity means something. It is an honor to be a part of that tradition. It is part of what makes our school great, and part of what it means to "be a Link."
"It is humbling to work with a group of people who hear the call for help and answer the bell," Herting said.
Through the generosity of current and former Links teachers/staff (including former principal Mike Wortman) , the idea became a reality.
"With a simple idea and an email, we collectively raised over $3,000 in less than two weeks for Lincoln High-affiliated businesses in the community," Herting said.
They purchased gift cards and food from those businesses and distributed them to nurses, firefighters, police officers, LHS custodians, postal workers, and other healthcare and essential workers throughout Lincoln.
"There is strength in numbers," Herting said. "Special thanks to David Juiliano, Lisa Kiely, Andrew Bargen , Josh Lupher, and Laurel Maslowski for their offers and efforts to helA make the logistics of all this come together. As a collective staff, we have not shirked the responsibility of what it means to be a Lincoln High School staff member," Herting added.
A second round of donations was directt=,d at grocery stores. "We distributed gift cards from LHS-connected businesses to employees at Leon's Gourmet Grocer, Hy-Vee, Super Saver, and Russ's Market," Herting said.
"This effort doesn't feel like a one-off. There is still a lot of uncertainty about how SO(?n these businesses (and the rest of us) can start to return to more typical day-to-day operations. If there is interest in pooling together our LHS staff donations for another round of "Links Helping Links," we would feel lucky to be a part of organizing that again."

Virtual Spirit Week
It's a tradition for schools to have a spirit week the week of prom or homecoming. Although there was nothing - traditional about the year 2020, Links found a way to bring one of the four valued Links. "Tradition." to life.
Senior Cassidy Allen started the spirit week trend which many Links took part in. The theme's being: Tropical Monday Twin Tuesday, Work from Home Wednesday. Throwback Thursday and School spirit Friday. Teachers even go in on the act.
No matter the (social) distance, Links come together to support their school and each other. As you become an upperclassman you look forward to the end of the year celebrations and all your "lasts." The feeling of a weight being taken off your shoulders once you get done with finals, being able to have your last high school dance with your best friends, no good-byes but many "see you laters" to your favorite teachers and being able to walk the stage in front of your family and friends. Due to the Coronavirus pandemic students all around the world didn't get their traditional "lasts." But Lincoln High students banded together to make things somewhat normal by having a Virtual Spirit Week and dressing up on the day prom was supposed to happen. This just goes to show that when given lemons, Links make sweet lemonade.
Virtual Prom With the world being on lockdown juniors and seniors didn 't get to dress up and go to the tradtional prom at the Pia Mor Ballroom Instead , they made the best out of it by getting dressed up and having their own not-so-traditional proms in thier own backyards. COVID-19 caused many students to miss out on their first prom. And for many more students it caused them to miss many of their "lasts ."

The eagle feather ceremony is a tradition that honors graduating Native high school seniors for their accomplishment and offers a blessing as they move on to the next phase of life.
This would have been the fourth year that graduating Natives from Lincoln Public Schools wore eagle feathers on their caps during May graduation ceremonies.
However, graduation ceremonies - in whatever form they take - have been delayed until late July this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
But Native elders and LPS Native advocates have still found a way for the eagle feather ceremonies to occur at their traditional time of year. They're visiting nearly 50 graduating Native students and safely performing the ceremonies outside their homes.
"Unlike the three previous .years, we were unable to gather as a community, enjoy a meal together, and ceremonially present eagle feathers to the group of our graduating seniors," LPS Indian Education Specialist Kris Ross said.
"We decided to travel with respected Ponca Tribe elder, Michael Wolfe, Sr., going to each senior's home and individually holding honoring ceremonies."
The scaled down version of this year's ceremonies didn't make it less special for Savannah Kills Small, a Lincoln High School graduate and member of the Oglala Lakota tribe.
"It feels good," she said last week after her ceremony. "I feel like the eagle feather was a symbol of how hard I worked and how much education means to Native Americans."
"The fourth year of holding the Eagle Feathering Ceremony turned out to be a real cultural awakening for our students, their families, and our Advocates," Ross said. The experience profoundly moved every soul who experienced the events.

It goes without saying how very proud this family is of you. It seem~ like yesterday that we were watching you playing with your brother & sister making sure they were safe. Catching Mr. Stick Bug and when he died you organized his memorial and making him his headstone. Making swings in the trees and trying to make them into elevators, taking small road trips and having you talk the whole distance. All the different faces you made in the matter of minutes and the cute little dimples. You were brought into the world with so many negatives, obstacles, and sadness, but you managed to make the best of everything from such an early age. You set goals for yourself and you accomplished what you set out to do. Stay focused and know you have all of our support.
Love, Your Family

The theme for this year's yearbook should have been: "Little did we know "
We took so many things for granted at the beginning of the year, never suspecting that so much change in such a short time due to the COVI0-19 Coronavirus pandemic. When we left the buliding for Sppng Break, we had no idea it would be the last time for the entire school year. We missed out on s many big events, seniors missed so many milestones, and who knew how much we would miss er ed hallways during passing periods, or standing next to each other in the lunch line, or just seeing each others' faces. There are so many things we will never take for granted again.
But the thing is, we powered through anyway, and we made the best of it. We didn't give up. We hel each other. We supported eac other. We held classes remotely. We hosted virtual celebrati •.., _.,,. We stayed connected. We we ere for each other even though we weren't together P-h •

The theme of the book this year was "The Way We See It. 11 The Theme was picked by the staff and editor. The idea for the cover design was chosen and created by the - editor-in-cheif Cammie Chandler and the adviser Greg Keller. The Links statue is made of words submitted by staff and facuilty at LHS in response to the questions, 11 What words come to mind when you think of Lincoln High?il
Because of the COVID-19 pandemic and the school closure, completing this book was very difficult. When the district decision was 240 Colophon
made to delay distributoin until the fall for safety reasons, we decided to use the extra time to change some of the spreads we had planned on and instead included coverage of the coronavirus situation and how students and staff dealt with the pandemic. We especially wanted to include photos of seniors since they missed out on so many milestones like Prom and Graduation. Many O' the spreads were done by students working remotely from home. Thanks to the dedicated people who kept on working up until the very end, you now have this historic book in your hands.
Special thanks also to Greg Adams, our Walsworth representative, and all of the people at Walsworth who helped us come up with many solutions along th~ way during this crazy year and who continued working despite the danger to themslves.
