by Abigail Clawson No one knows a single person’s exact experiences but their own. Precise details found only in the moment, reactions and emotions, the conscious and unconscious decisions all make a life, and, as close as you may be to someone, you are not with them at every moment, you do not share their thoughts, are not privy to their challenges without having them shared with you. In our dealings with people— wherever they
stand on the line between stranger and loved one— how often do we know of or make a true attempt to learn of their challenges? Too often, challenges are hidden in the routine parts of life, and the NS Times’ staff is digging to uncover the difficulties faced by the student body, pursuing the impact of technology, dating, expectations, mental health, academic challenges, stress, social life and the fight for balance. No two students view a challenge the
same or face the exact problem as another, and certainly they cope differently, but the common thread is the difficulty. The staff hopes to bring a greater realization to students of this fact: you can be united in the search to cope and overcome. Afterall, a challenge can be seen as a hardship, or viewed through another definition: an invitation to participate in a contest. Life is a competition to reach the ultimate level of See Challenges, page 2
Snow ups requirements for full-ride scholarship BY
SAVANNAH A MES
In the past, many NS students chose to attend Snow College rather than other schools because it was the least expensive option. Snow College provided many students with full-tuition scholarships. However, the number of full-tuition scholarships being awarded to students has decreased in the last three years. Snow College was forced by the state to change their scholarship matrix, which lowered the amount of money that is avail-
able for them to offer to students. Dr. Steve Hood, Vice President for Academic Affairs of Snow College, said that the changes were made in order to follow state law. “The Utah State Legislature requires each public institution of higher education to keep a limit in how much public money we give in scholarships,” Hood said. “That limit is 10 percent. So if we have one million dollars that has been collected in tuition, we are only able to give one hundred thousand dollars in scholarship money.” This year, only two percent of NS se-
niors qualified for the full-tuition scholarship. Last year, 11 percent qualified for the scholarship and three years ago, 17 percent qualified. Now, it is much harder for students to meet the requirements for the fulltuition scholarship than it has been in the past. In 2016, a student with a 3.8 GPA would have needed an ACT score of 26 in order to qualify for the full-tuition scholarship. In 2017, that same student would See Scholarships, page 2
Wall graphics will promote unity, school pride BY
C HEYENNE BALLARD
Many students at NS have recently noticed a dramatic change in the appearance of the walls around the school. Principal Nan Ault and Assistant Principal Jeff Ericksen have created a project to modernize the walls of the school’s commons area. “It’s really important because photo by Cheyenne Ballard it’s another step in marketing who The new wall decor in the commons promotes unity. we are and uniting everybody in
the same purpose,” Ericksen said. Ault hopes to rebuild the walls and design them with past years’ themes and quotes. The walls will be white with a horizontal black line going across them and transferring into the quotes. Some quotes include “We are all in this together,” “Home of the Hawks” and “Go far, go together.” “We want it to resemble the lines on a heart monitor because this is where our heart is,” ErickSee Walls, page 2

FBLA club expands to include DECA competitions
BY
M AYZIE TALBOT
NS has had the Future Business Leaders of America (FBLA) club for a long time, but this year it’s getting DECA as an addition. DECA stands for Distributive Education Clubs of America and it’s a similar organization to FBLA, helping to create leaders for the future. Although DECA is a smaller organization, they have the same foundational beliefs and a lot of the same competitions to prepare students for college and careers. Chapter advisor Justin Morley was contacted by the student president of the Utah DECA, so after a bit of research he presented it to a few members of the NS FBLA presidency. He then got permission from the administration and the CTE director. Having DECA implemented at NS will mean more competitions and ways for students to take their skills
and use them in the real world. “It provides more opportunity for competitions and real-life simulation in a business atmosphere,” Morley said. “It will double the opportunity.” Currently, the FBLA club only has a few competitions each year, but, by joining DECA, students will be able to attend many more. Competitions include presentations, role playing competitions and tests in different business categories. A huge hope for DECA is to give students a glimpse into business and allow them to practice skills that are essential in the business and career fields. “It’s just kind of another way for students to branch out and explore different principles of business and find out what they’re interested in,” said Chapter President Carli Johansen. Fortunately, Morley isn’t planning on changing things as far as standards and expectations for members, but co-
Scholarships, continued from page 1 have needed an ACT score of 28. Now, in 2018, that student needs a 31 on the ACT to qualify for the scholarship. Hood claimed that it was necessary to change the scholarship matrix in order to meet the financial needs of students in the area while keeping within the 10 percent margin. “We adjusted the matrix to make sure we could stay within state limits, and in doing so, it cut the total amount of money that we were allowed to give to students,” Hood said. The decrease in money available for scholarship use reduced the total amount of scholarships that could be awarded. Because of this, the requirements to receive the different scholarships are much higher than they were in previous years.
Two years ago, a student with a 3.8 GPA and a 26 on the ACT would have qualified for the Presidential scholarship, but now they only qualify for the Dean scholarship. Students are disappointed with these changes and some have even considered attending other schools where they might receive better offers. “I’m a little bummed out by it,” said Hayes Bailey, a senior at NS. Bailey has thought about attending Southern Utah University instead if they offer him a better scholarship. Other seniors, like Ky Mickel, are unphased by the changes the Snow College made to their scholarships. “I’ve always planned on going to Snow,” Mickel said. Mickel feels that Snow College is the best choice for him because it is closer to home.
ordinating with two separate organizations is going to be difficult, resulting in a bigger workload for the presidency. “It’s going to add a lot more work definitely,” Johansen said. “Especially this first year, it’s going to make it a little harder for the presidency in particular, and for Mr. Morley who has to set up the rules for a whole new program, and for the members who are going to have to get used to a whole new program.” This year costs to be in the club won’t change, but students should expect costs to go up next year by adding more competition prices and membership fees. The chapter is planning to jump right into DECA by attending a Snow College invitational in November, where students will be able to get a feel for the new program. First place winners of the performance events will receive a $2,000 scholarship which adds
Snow College officials are aware that students may have differing views of their school for many reasons, and they have noticed the impact that the scholarship changes have had on their enrollments. “We are competing with other universities in the area, especially Southern Utah University,” Hood said. “We worry that students will take scholarships from places like SUU simply on the amount of money the scholarships give them, and not based upon the total savings that they get.” Hood argues that despite the higher offers that students might receive from other schools, Snow College is still the best option when all of the expenses of attending college are brought into consideration. “A student may not get as much money from Snow Col-

happiness, an intense game of shoots and ladders. The teen years are acknowledged for being a peculiar time— the brain is still developing, yet the search for and construction of an identity is most obvious during these years, in addition to the greatest increase in a short time period in levels of trust and responsibility that will be seen in their life. The highlights of life are higher and the rock bottoms are lower, yet as adults move beyond this time to decades of family life, work and the accompanying stresses, the intensity felt as a teenager is dulled. The current moment is always sharper than the gentle prick of memories, and the NS Times’ staff aims to enlighten the community to the students’ take, as well as remind the students of the support from the veterans of the teen years. While the support of adults is needed, the world changes at an unprecedent-
excitement for all involved. In a small school like NS, students are given more opportunities to be involved. Unfortunately, that also means that their focus is spread a little more thin. “Our students wear many hats, are ivolved in many different things,” Morley said. “By having more events it puts a constraint on students that already have a limited time schedule.” By adding DECA to the FBLA gram, it not only adds another avenue for opportunity, but Morley is hoping that word will spread and interest will spike, bringing in more members, although he is content with a small club as long as the participation is high among all members. “It’s going to be fun and exciting, and students should show up and at least give it an opportunity and if they’re willing to put in the effort they’re going to be successful,” Morley said.
lege, but they do not pay as high tuition,” Hood said. “The other costs of attendance such as residence halls, fees and overall cost of living is lower in Ephraim, which means students spend much less going to Snow College than they do going to another institution.” As of 2018, Snow College offers three different academic scholarships: Presidential, Dean and Honors. The Presidential scholarship provides 100 percent tuition and is renewable up to two years. The Dean scholarship provides 50 percent tuition and is renewable up to two years. The Honors scholarship provides 10 percent tuition and is renewable one year. The Office of Academic Affairs took everything into consideration when they decided to make changes to their
scholarship matrix, unsure of the results that would come from the change. “Any time you change your scholarship matrix, it is a bit of an experiment because you use economic models to forecast how it will work, but you do not know until students actually respond to the matrix,” Hood said. The Academic Affairs team is working to grow their private scholarship amounts and they are making efforts to receive help from the state to allow them to spend more than 10 percent on scholarships. “This has been an issue of great sadness to us,” Hood said. “There has been a great misunderstanding about the scholarship program. We want to offer more, but we are not allowed under the law.”
ed pace, paving the way for challenges uncharted by past generations. Every year, those entering teenhood are part of a pioneering effort to overcome and cope with new surprises. Coping is essential as each challenge impacts all sides of the wellness triangle; our physical, mental and emotional sides see the results of our fight with life, and the staff looks to provide help in coping to maintain the balance and overall wellness for students. Students find themselves in a variety of dilemmas that influence this, and as members of the student body, the NS Times’ staff selected personal challenges, hoping to delve deeper and share a side not often portrayed to the community as a whole, and create a more positive opinion on challenges.
Walls, continued from page 1 sen said. Ault and Ericksen have been eager to get this project done since the beginning of last school year. It’s been a year in the works, and they decided to force the issue to make it happen after ripping the carpet off the walls. Ericksen has been on top of getting this project to move along. He arranged for Eagle Scouts to come and do the drywall, made the call to get the painter in and hired a company to do the graphic plans for the walls. Ault, who is in charge of the whole project, has an estimate of the project costing about $6,000 dollars. Ault
didn’t have one certain fund to take from for this project so instead she took money from multiple different sources “Over the last two years I’ve taken it out of a building use fund, I’ve taken it out of parking and I’ve taken it out of our general funds and just little by little tried to find extra funding to make this work,” Ault said. Even though it’s a lot of money, Ault thinks it’s an important project. “I think we have to invest in ourselves and our students, and updates are necessary in order to see progress and unite ourselves and feel proud about our school,” Ault said
The goal of this project is to make NS feel like a place everyone belongs. “We want everyone to be a part of us— just like all of our themes have said— and what we try to preach to everybody, ‘We are all in this together,’” Ericksen said. Ault and Ericksen have tried their best to help the student feel like they are all on the same team and be proud to graduate from NS high. “We painted the football scoreboard, we updated the mats in the gym and they are branded with marketing, with who we are. We are the hawks,” Ericksen said. NS has undergone multiple
changes to make the school feel like one team. “We want them to know that this is a safe place and a good place to be,” Ericksen said. Ericksen uses his best effort to meet everyone and greet students by their names in order to make the school warm, welcoming and inviting. “When we say everybody we don’t mean just our students and teachers and our staff,” Ericksen said. “We also include administrators, parents, all the alumni, community businesses because this is North Sanpete and we represent the entire community and we can do this.”

Disputed Friday schedule, testing cause students stress
BY
K AYLEE A NDERSON
At the start of this school year, students and staff have had to deal with a couple schedule changes. Monday through Thursday follows the same A day/B day schedule as last year, but it is Fridays that have changed. We now have all eight classes, with 40 minutes per class period. With the shorter class periods on Fridays, teachers have chosen to use
that time in different ways, but too many teachers are now scheduling tests on those days, which can cause several conflicts for the students. It is often not just one or two teachers that decide to have their tests on this day. Each Friday, students could possibly have up to four tests depending on the week. This can often be an easier option for teachers because a test can take up an entire class period, so they don’t have to plan a lesson or lecture. Students who participate in sports can have an exceptionally hard time with the Friday schedule and tests. Each day they go to school, practice their sport for two to three hours, drive home, eat dinner, spend time with fam-
ily and friends, shower, do homework and then finally try to get a couple hours of sleep, before starting the process all over again. All of this is really hard to balance, so some students have to cut a couple of these important things out. Sleep is one of them that is often cut, but it is crucial for the student’s wellbeing. Teenagers are supposed to have eight to ten hours of sleep each night. This is just not possible throughout the week, especially on Thursday nights, when you have homework along with having to study and really know the material for your upcoming tests the next day. Lack of sleep also impacts how well you can focus the next day. It gets harder to focus when you strain your
brain from one test to the next. Having all eight classes on Fridays means there are twice as many classes for potential tests. Teachers don’t schedule their class plans around each other, so weekly we run into the same problem where teachers plan for tests on the same day. I think when we do have several tests during one day, we end up having to choose which classes are more important to us, so those are the classes we try to most prepare for. Our other test performances end up suffering because we didn’t get the chance to study each subject. Having tests on Fridays are also hard for students who have to miss them because they are sick, traveling with sports teams or have other
obligations where they have to miss them. This often puts the students behind and drops their grade until they can make all of them up during flex or after school. Stress that comes from balancing our schedules and preparing for each test is another thing students have to cope with. I think that the stress that builds throughout the week can tear us down physically, mentally and emotionally. Fridays can be really hard to get through, when you add stress on top of taking the tests. Fridays could be a little easier on the students if teachers switched up their test days. This way it wouldn’t be like finals week every week.

B Y E MILY K ERKSIEK
Over 700 prepared high school students and world renown composer Z. Randall Stroope created deafening, beautiful music at All-State choir. Senior Marley Booher was one of the few NS students
who was able to participate. “The experience was mind blowing,” Booher said. “Everyone had to come prepared with their music. The respect in the room was amazing. The overtones we created were just amazing.” When Booher hears music, she comes alive. She began playing the bassoon when she moved to California. She also plays the saxophone and the guitar. “My aunt played [the bassoon] and my parents told me about it,” Booher said. “It sounded cool so I decided to give it a shot. It looks funny, which made it even better. I decided to try out the music program [in California]. It has just made my life so much better.” Booher is heavily involved in music. She plays in the NS jazz band, concert band, choir and guitar class. She also participates in the Snow College symphonic band. Booher is planning to implement music into her future career. She is going to major in music performance and minor in music teaching. “If I’m having a bad day I just go play
my bassoon,” Booher said. “I want to be able to teach people the things that I have learned.” To prepare for her future Booher is the music Sterling Scholar for NS. She considers this her biggest accomplishment considering all of the great musicians she is competing against. “Becoming Sterling Scholar was completely crazy,” Booher said. “I am now writing a lot of essays and finding a great song to play. I am also taking lessons from college professors.” Booher is also involved with the NS marching band and is the assistant drum major. She plays the saxophone while marching. “Marching band is harder than it looks,” Booher said. “You have to know the music and be able to play it while marching with your feet in time, marching to your dots, not moving on holds and doing that all in one breath. It’s like running a mile while blowing out.” To Booher, music isn’t the only important thing in her life. Family is key and she tries to develop strong relationships with
them. Her best friend is her sister Megan Booher. “We’ve done some stupid stuff together,” Marley Booher said. “She has become one of my best friends. Every time we have moved she was there with me. We’ve experienced everything together.” Megan Booher also agrees that together they make a great team. “Marley and I were basically born into an everlasting friendship,” Megan Booher said. “We don’t always get along but we love each other and that is all that matters. In the worst of times she is always there no matter how mad she is at me at the moment.” Marley Booher wants to implement good music into her future family. She also plans to use the Booher family rules. “Rule number one: if you’re going to be dumb, you better be tough,” Marley Booher said. “Rule number two: be smart about the stupid things you do. Rule number three: stupid should hurt.” Marley Booher believes she was born into a great family and she hopes to share her talent of music with those who need an extra boost.

New seminary teacher made big life change to teach B Y M EGAN BOOHER
NS students who attend the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints seminary see a frequent turn around in teachers, each with their own story and experience to share with the students. This year students have had the opportunity to meet Jacob Weeks and enjoy all he brings to the table as a seminary teacher. A few years ago Weeks, decided to go back to school with the hopes of becoming a seminary teacher. “I was making a big change in my life. My wife Alyse and I owned a restaurant, we were do-
ing fairly well, but I kept getting impressions from the Holy Ghost to go back to school for seminary teaching,” Weeks said. When Weeks was getting the impression to go back to school, he already had a lot going on with the restaurant and his three kids, but Weeks went back to school anyways. “I had a lot on my plate at the time, but the impressions from the Holy Ghost really pushed my decision to go back to school,” Weeks said. To get his job as a seminary teacher, Weeks had to student teach a seminary class. “They gave us what they call
a two-day practicum,” Weeks said. “You observe one day then teach the next. And if you like it you will go back and observe again then teach for four days, and a trainer will come to watch you. If he thinks you have a shot, then he will give you an opportunity to student teach for a year and through the year they come and observe you every once in a while. If they feel like they want to hire you, you to get the opportunity to meet with a general authority and they do a home interview.” Weeks and his wife have been married for eight years. They have three kids: a five-year-old son
named Dean, a three-year-old son named Cooper and a 24-monthold daughter named Savannah. Together they had owned a restaurant in Logan called Jake’s Place, which they managed for six years until Weeks got called to be a full-time seminary teacher in Mt. Pleasant. He had to decide whether or not to pack up his family and move, but they followed through and now reside in Fairview. “My wife and I had to step away from the restaurant so I could work my full-time seminary job. My dad may or may not take over the restaurant, he isn’t sure he wants to
take it over, so I do not know what is going to happen to the restaurant,” Weeks said. Seminary jobs are not easy things to get; you go head to head with a lot of other people, and whoever is best suited for the job will be assigned a job wherever there is a job available. “The schooling to be a seminary teacher is really difficult and very competitive, not competitive like we are trying to sabotage each other, but there are a lot of people trying to get the same job,” Weeks said.

Actors give original “Ghostbusters” charm B Y TR AYSON THOMPSON
T
he original “Ghostbusters” is a movie that I’ve always had a real fondness for; it’s one of those movies that you either know about or will know about sometime in your lifetime. The movie was incredibly popular when it first came out in 1984, and the movie continues to be a favorite among moviegoers to this very day, but why is that? Why are people so fond of the original “Ghostbusters” but not its sequel or the reboot that came out a few years ago? I decided to give “Ghostbusters” a watch and find out. The movie starts out with Ray Stantz (Dan Aykroyd), Egon Spengler (Harold Ramis) and Peter Venkman (Bill Mur-
ray) investigating a ghost sighting at a local li-
brary. Af ter ac t u -
ally finding the ghost and not knowing what to do about it, the group
decides to create a business centered around investigating the paranormal and catching ghosts. Once they have their business established, they decide to name the business Ghostbusters. I think that the biggest strength that
this movie has is its cast. Aykroyd and Ramis play their roles incredibly well, and Rick Moranis (who plays Louis Tully) does a fantastic job playing this weird, awkward, pretty stupid accountant that’s just really great to watch whenever
he’s on screen. However, I’d have to say that the absolute best performance to come out of this movie is from Murray: he absolutely steals the show and has this ‘I don’t really care how this movie ends up, but I’m still going to have fun with it,’ aura of him whenever he’s on screen. This is definitely one of Murray’s best performances, and it’s most likely one of the reasons why Murray is a landmark actor and why he still gets acting gigs to this day. Other than the acting, this movie feels very dated, it’s a movie from the eighties for sure. The music (excluding the orchestral score and the kick-butt Ghostbusters theme) is comprised of a bunch of music that was popular in the eighties, however, they don’t exactly hold up in this day and age. In fact, the entire idea of the movie probably
could have only worked in the eighties, I just couldn’t see something so ridiculous being made in 2018. Ghostbusters is an anomaly of film that could never have worked so well if made in any other time period, but it also just wouldn’t have worked without it’s amazing cast. Something like Ghost-
busters will probably never be achieved ever again, that’s why I find this movie so fascinating, it feels outdated, yet it still just works. If you somehow haven’t seen this movie, do yourself a favor and give it a watch, you won’t regret it.
Students share opinions on favorite Halloween Candy B Y DANIELLE GARFF
As Halloween approaches, kids are buying and making costumes of cartoon characters, vampires and group costumes, while parents begin decorating houses with fall ornaments and scary decorations. Even though the meaning of Halloween has changed through the years, the candy has always remained the best part. Many NS students took a survey regarding their favorite Halloween candy. The results showed that the top Halloween treats were: Kit Kats as a strong number one, Reese’s came as a close second, with Twix as a distant third. Although students enjoy these popular candies, they still have their least favorites. The two least favorites included Dots, a mushroomshaped gooey, sugary snack, and Almond Joy, a coconut lover’s delight. According to a Nielsen Newswire Report from 2009, “Almost 90 million pounds of chocolate are sold [each year],” and about 2.5 billion dollars are spent on candy for the Halloween season. For those who live in rural areas, trick-or-treating may be a little more difficult. It is more of a trek to go door-to-door when the houses are not so close. As a more enjoyable and safer alternative to trick-or-treating, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints provides a trunk-or-treat for all ages. This makes it easier for parents to keep track of their children and also allows the parents to have fun and socialize themselves. “I like the trunk-or-treat. I think it’s fun to be able to have everyone dress up and to go around and visit with everyone,” junior Tawnee Allen said. The trunk-or-treat is only held in certain places as not all wards have the time or money to hold a community get together. But all do not participate in trick-or-treating or want a more adventurous route, so some teenagers still trick-or-treat, but don’t indulge in their bounty.

Football advances to state semifinals

Senior QB Chance Clawson fires a touchdown pass to Ethan Bowles in the Hawks' 21-7 win over Union in the state playoffs. BY
K ALEB C OX
As the football season approaches its end, NS recognizes the great strides they’ve made since last year. After finishing 0-10 in 2017, the Hawks jumped to a 5-4 record this year, earning them second place in region and the title of one of Deseret News’s most improved teams in the state. NS finished second in region, allowing them to host a first round state game. They won that game 21-7 against Union, and will play in the state semifinals against Morgan at Provo High School at 11 a.m. on Saturday, Nov 3. NS head coach Rhett Bird credits the team’s success
largely to increased dedication and discipline amongst players. “In football, whoever can execute at a higher level is going to end up winning the game,” Bird said. “So [discipline] has been a key factor.” Though going winless over the course of an entire season is an experience no sports team ever wants to go through, it was a necessary step to help launch the Hawks into the success they see today. “Going 0-10 last year was a huge motivator for all of us,” said starting quarterback Chance Clawson. “I remember as soon as the season ended I started hitting the weight room, and a bunch of us have been going to weights since
November.” The success this year has brought to NS wasn’t always inevitable. Early losses to Grantsville and Cedar— though initially worrisome— later proved to be important learning tools for mid-season adjustments. “All those teams we played earlier in the year we know that if we played them now, we’d beat them,” said senior linebacker and fullback Brock Justesen. From start to finish, NS has been especially dominant on the defensive side of the ball. They were one of the top defensive teams in the state, only allowing 13.89 points per game on average for the season. Excluding the Hawks’ last
region game against Juab, the most points they had allowed ain a game was 14. “We’re in our third year [with this system],” Bird said, “I think a lot of it is that [the players] really know the defense. They can play fast because they know what their assignment is. The previous two years there’s been confusion on some of the stuff that we run.” The biggest test that NS faced was a road game against Juan Diego midway through the season. Juan Diego won the state title last year, and was ranked second in the state heading into this season. This victory was precisely what the Hawks needed to finish the season strong.
“I think that win really opened up my eyes and showed me that we’re up there with any team in the state,” Clawson said. “We can beat any team if we really wanted to.” Despite the general positive lense the season has been viewed through, NS still had plenty of difficulties throughout. The aforementioned home loss to Juab (36-29) wasn’t the ideal way to close out region play, but like every other misstep, it’s being viewed as a learning opportunity to better prepare them for the state tourney. “We talked about a couple of the things that [ Juab] did that kind of screwed us up,” Bird said. “We realized that going into the playoffs, teams are going to try and do some of those same things. They’re going to try and put us out of our comfort zone.” Another takeaway from that loss in particular was the show, of the Hawks’ mental strength. Since prior to that game they had only ever allowed 14 points, they never had a deficit that seemed insurmountable. “There was a point in that game where it was 22 to 8,” Bird said, “and we told all the players, ‘OK, you have two choices, you can either roll over and get beat by 20, or we can go and fight like we’ve done all year and we can try and make a comeback.’” Regardless of the outcome of the state playoffs, the team has recognized the success they’ve had and have laid groundwork for many seasons to come.

Volleyball finishes season fourth in state BY
C HANDLER C OOK
Although the Lady Hawks dominated region games in the past years, they have struggled a bit with consistency this year. “When we play really well, we can beat anybody,” said Head Coach Rickie Stewart, “but we’ve been inconsistent with our ability to continue to play well.” The Lady Hawks have won nine out of their twelve region games. Outside hitter,
senior Linzy Flinders, leads the team in kills. ‘’We need to play the same in games as we do in practice,’’ Flinders said. When the team gets hot, they believe they can beat anybody. The struggle is finding that momentum. "We’ve seen what we can be, we just need to find some consistency,’’ Stewart said. The Lady Hawks have also had great success in their defensive plays.

Peckham leads the team in digs and Senior Aubree Ison leads the team in blocks. The team entered the state tournament placed second in region; they came with high spirits and a ‘give it all you’ve got’ attitude. “We felt prepared, we felt ready to come and play and to go all out,” senior Tairei Laupapa said. The team’s first state game was against Measar Prep, and the Lady Hawks controlled

the game, beating them in three sets. “We took care of our side of the court, and didn’t let the state tournament nerves get to us,” Ison said. The second game was against Delta High School. “We knew we needed to win, so we adjusted our defense to their hitters and took care of the ball,” Peckham said. “We beat them in four sets.” The team was excited going into the second day
of state. Their first game was against last year’s state champs, Morgan High School. “Overall we were really proud of how we played against Morgan, there were one or two crucial errors that killed our momentum, which prevented us from taking a set off of them,” said Assistant Coach Jori Turpin. The match ended with 0-3 loss, but it was back and forth the entire game, with only a few
points separating the sets. “I don’t know if the motivation was gone after the Morgan game, but it felt like the wind was taken from our sails,” Turpin said. The team had a tough loss against Emery in the fourth game. Emery took the first two sets, and NS took the next two. NS lost in the fifth set, earning them fourth place for state.
Senior golfer leaves legacy for underclassmen BY
CARSON H ADLEY
Senior River Dillman has been a major factor in the success of the NS boys golf team for the past several seasons. Dillman, two-time region champion individual golfer, has had a love for the game from a very young age. “I started playing golf when I was four years old,” Dillman said. Dillman was never pushed into playing golf and none of his family played. He decided to start when he saw professional golfers playing on TV. “My earliest recollection [of golf] is watching Tiger Woods play on TV and just thinking, I want to play golf like him,” Dillman said. From then on, Dillman worked, played and practiced continually trying to become the best golfer he could be. He has played on the NS boys golf team all four years of high school and been a major contributing factor every year, especially the last two seasons. The first time Dillman led the region was during his junior year of high school. No one expected a junior to pull off what Dillman did, because all eyes were on the seniors. “Obviously I was the underdog,” Dillman said, “and that first tournament of my junior year I shot my best score ever.”
Dillman shot a 70 at that tournament and stunned everyone by maintaining good scores all throughout that season. Dillman started this season with a lot of expectations. After winning the region championship the previous year, Dillman was the favorite to win. I think it was a little bit more expected of me,” said Dillman, “and I expected it a little more.” Dillman faced some tough competition, but started out strong and maintained good scores. He successfully defended his region championship and finished in third place overall at state. This season was Dillman’s final one at NS, but he doesn’t plan to give up golf just because he will be leaving high school. “I have several different offers from colleges out of state to play on their golf teams,” Dillman said, “but I think I’ll stay in state and go and try to play for Dixie State University for a year and see where that takes me.” College might not be the end of Dillman’s golf career though, if his play in college goes well and Dillman learns a lot, he would like to try professional golf. “If I go to college and it’s a big eye opener for me, and
I improve my game, and I’m good enough,” Dillman said, “I would love to try and play professional golf.” Dillman loves golf for many reasons, but it’s the challenge that draws him in the most. “I like that it is mostly a test of your mental game,” Dillman said. “Once you get to a certain level in golf, when you get to be a good player, how good you play in tournaments depends on how stable you can be mentally.” Maintaining that mentality is not a walk in the park, it requires work to push the hard
spots. “It’s not all going to be easy,” Dillman said, “you’re going to go through struggles in golf. You go through the biggest ups and downs you’ll ever have, and it’s very mentally challenging on you, but you just have to remember that if you put in the work, you will come out on top.” Tod Hansen, Dillman’s golf coach for the past four years, said that Dillman set an example of hard work and dedication for the entire team. “[Dillman’s] example of hard work,” Hansen said, “are the best things for the golf
team. Just total dedication.” Like many other sports, the amount of time he’s spent on the course has taught him other skills that will forever be valuable to him. “[Golf] teaches you a lot of lessons that you can apply to the rest of your life,” Dillman said. As Dillman moves forward to the rest of his life on the golf course and wherever life takes him, he will be able to take with him the memories and lessons learned, and they will serve him well.

Uncle, nephew duo share love of football through coaching
photo by Carli Johansen
Head football coach Rhett Bird instructs his team during a practice prior to the state quarter finals. Bird is joined in coaching by his uncle, Dave Peck, who is the team's defensive coordinator.
Everyone loves a good underdog, rags to riches type of story, which is what makes the story of the NS football team so intriguing. From last year’s 0-10 record, to snagging second place in region, the team’s rise has been quite a journey. “We are playing much more disciplined football now,” said head coach Rhett Bird. Their success can be greatly credited to the efforts of Bird and his uncle, defensive coordinator Dave Peck. “We really mesh well together,” Peck said. “All the things I feel like are important in running a football program, he agrees.” Peck and Bird’s familial bond has helped them become a power team when it comes to coaching. The timing that has brought them both to North Sanpete
worked out perfectly. After his retirement from a head coaching job at Bingham High School, where he won five state championships, Peck and his wife decided to settle down in Sanpete. At the same time, Bird decided to go for the head coaching job open at his alma mater. “Bird said the only way he [would want to go for the job] is if I helped him,” Peck said, “and I couldn’t say no to him. Rhett is like one of my boys.” Between Peck’s years of experience and success, Bird’s passion and the team’s newfound drive, NS’s football team has made huge strides. “They have minds built for football,” said senior fullback and middle linebacker Brock Justesen. “[They] know their stuff and what’s good in what situation.” Peck has been a head coach at NS, Cyprus, and Bingham High
a team to go from 0-10 to turn things around and have success,” Bird said. Now all doubts have flown out the window, as more and more wins are piled on. A personal motivator for the coaches is the tragedy of Peck’s son Stetson last November. Stetson was an avid football lover, who played starting quarterback in his own high school days, after he passed away in a car crash last year, football became a way for Peck and Bird to honor his memory. “He’s the reason I love football so much,” Bird said. Stetson also grew to mean a lot to the team after they learned about the accident while in Juan Diego, after they had driven over the highway he had passed on. After Bird and Peck told the team the story, the team was inspired to win what would be a tough game. “[Peck said] if you
guys played to the best of your abilities I know that would make my son proud,” Anderson said. That game at Juan Diego ended up being a huge turning point for the team. “That was the first time that we saw the kids actually believe that everything they had done in the offseason, everything they had done in the practices leading up to that game were worth it,” Bird said. “They just dedicated themselves to trying to be a team that’s unified.” After that the team’s confidence aided them in every game, and it shows. As a part of their new manner of playing, the coaches have established a code of ethics, which the team must strictly follow to remain a part of the team. “[The code of ethics includes principles like] optimism, no regrets, accountability—just some simple things that we
live by,” Bird said. This code of ethics also means that the team is responsible for their actions. “Once we teach the kids something, I expect them to do it to the best of their abilities,” Peck said. While the standard is high, the kids feel nothing but respect and admiration for their coaches. “If we are ever in need he will be there,” Justesen said, “he treats us just like his own.” The code of ethics in play has added a depth of trust and respect between players, and coaches alike. “The code of ethics allows us to feel good, so that we will play good on the field,” said Bird. Now, the teammates respect and trust one another, and they deeply care about their team and those around them.
Schools for a total of 21 years, and his experience has been invaluable in his time teaching here. “He uses his age and the knowledge he’s gained the best he can,” said senior middle linebacker Brage Anderson. “He helps us to learn by what he’s been through.” His nephew Bird’s natural born passion for the game has been aided by the mentoring of his uncle’s experience, and this year, more than ever, Bird has led his team to outstanding success. “He’s taken charge this year,” Peck said. “He’s taking major steps forward.” As for the team, a fairly newfound motivation this year has played a key role in their climb to power. A negative article from the Deseret News motivated the team to push themselves harder than it ever has before. photo by Carli Johansen “[The article said] Defensive Coordinator Dave Peck runs a drill during practice.

Overlap in sport seasons causes stress for student athletes
BY
LUCY A NDERSON
Every year around this time three things happen. Halloween excitement builds, fall sport season comes to an end and the first quarter is wrapped up in a bow. Two of these things have a tendency to bring in a series of mixed emotions for students. For students who play multiple sports, this time can be especially stressful. Sometimes fall sports go over into preseason of another sport
causing these students to miss the initial conditioning and preparatory practices that build skill for the upcoming season. “I feel like it’s hard to catch up,” sophomore Jared Strait said. “You’re already behind in the season and now you have to catch up to everyone else.” Strait wasn’t able to make it to the first swim practices because of his commitment to the cross country team. Swim is a physically demanding sport. For many,
the only way to condition for swim is to swim. Senior Emi Palmer has similar feelings to Strait transitioning directly from soccer into swim. “With soccer and swim you use completely different muscles,” Palmer said. “My shoulders are really sore because I don’t use my shoulders in soccer.” On top of being unconditioned, students feel additional stress from coaches. This year, the swim team has a new coach who doesn’t know those who have been on the team in the past. “The coach doesn’t know me, so when I came in late this year it’s kind of weird,” Palmer said. “I’ve swam for the past two years, and I’m a senior but he doesn’t anything about that. He doesn’t know if I’m good or not.” Palmer wasn’t able to attend swim at the start of pre-
season because soccer season was still going. She feels the first few weeks are important in order to make a good impression. “I feel like the people who come at the beginning seem more dedicated to the sport, and the coach thinks more highly of them,” Palmer said. Although students feel this way when they come into sports late, coaches may not be as concerned as the athletes might think Head boys’ basketball coach, Cris Hoopes, doesn’t require that athletes to come to open gym before preseason starts and doesn’t punish athletes for not participating and judges them evenly at tryouts. Hoopes even sees benefits in students playing sports before they go to play basketball. “I tend to believe there are advantages to them playing [other sports],” Hoopes said. “If they play they become
more physical and it builds up a resilience. It teaches them how to compete.” For Palmer, the lack of a break takes a larger toll than her physical problems. “I don’t have any time off from when I go from one sport right to the other,” Palmer said, “so with schoolwork it’s kind of hard to keep up on that.” Palmer is able to see benefits from staying active. “Sometimes it’s also good because it keeps me busy and I’m more productive,” Palmer said. “If I don’t have anything to do I’ll just procrastinate my schoolwork way more.” A smaller student body allows for students to be involved with more sports and most coaches understand that. “I think we’re at a school where you have to play multiple sports,” Hoopes said.

Marching band pushes through difficulty with size by Athena De Groff
The NS marching band has done well this year, despite the challenges they have faced having only 26 members, about ten fewer than last year. Being a sport that relies on producing a big sound, size is an important factor. “We had a lot of seniors that left, and then not enough freshman joined to replace them,” said Timothy Kidder, marching band instructor at NS. “Early in the season we also had some attendance issues with some people, so we asked them to never come back.” Regular attendance and commitment are critical for each band member. Coordinating playing an instrument while marching is challenging and takes practice. Marching band is so physically demanding that it is considered a sport. The group started out the season with an intense summer camp before school started where they practiced 12 hours a day for two weeks. Now they practice two days
a week after school from 3:30 to 6:00 p.m. The marching band competes in various competitions around the state, competing against other 1A marching bands, while the categories go all the way up to 5A schools. Some of these schools even have over 200 members in their band. Seeing these giant schools perform can be discouraging, but the NS marching band has done their best with the limited resources available. “Even though we are a small band and can’t afford fancy equipment, compared to other bands our tone and our sound is usually a lot better than theirs,” said Spencer Olson, sophomore alto sax player. The marching band has leaders to help plan and keep things on track. The faculty instructors are Kidder, middle school band teacher Ross Christensen, as well and Melanie Beck. The band also has a drum major, Braxton Smith and assistant drum major, Marlee Booher. These two students have many responsibilities, the main one is actually conducting the band while they are on

the field. “You have to make sure that you are aware of what the band is doing on the field so that you can be in time with them conducting wise,” Smith said. Sometimes when high school students are in a group it causes tension and drama, but being a close group has proven to be
a positive thing for the members of the marching band. “It’s not just a bunch of people walking around, it’s friends that turn into family that you build real connections with,” said senior clarinet player Kylee Blackham. At state, the marching band took seventh and the color guard took fourth.
Drama casts parts, begins preparations for “Newsies” BY
A DAM C OX
Blood sweat and tears go into every performance for drama, and this year it is going to be even bigger and more ambitious than in years past with crazy choreography and a larger cast. This January, students will perform the musical “Newsies.” In “Newsies” we follow the main characters Jack Kelly (Spencer Brown), Crutchie (Aidan Anderson), Davey (Braxton Smith), Katherine (Lucy Quinn) and their fellow newsies as they go on strike after the greedy businessman Pulitzer (Nicholas Honey) raises the price of newspapers. “’Newsies’ has always been a show that I’ve wanted to do,” said teacher and musical director Alex Barlow. “When I was in high
school it was I show I wanted to be involved in.” The department will be performing the 2017 Broadway version, as the rights have recently been released. “I feel like there will be a very high standard because it’s such a popular show,” Brown said. “Newsies” usually has a majority male cast, but because there weren’t enough boys trying out there are actually more girls than boys, with many of the male characters being played by girls. “I just think it will be interesting having girls play guys,” Smith said. “Newsies” has a large cast
consisting of 54 people. Twentyone of these are main newsies who will be on stage for many of the major musical numbers. “Our drama program is growing and we have a lot of kids,” Barlow said. “It’s a very en-
semble driven show so there’s a lot of ways to use a lot of people. It’s a show that a lot of people can get involved in. It’s overall a really great show.” Because of this large cast there will be a lot of challenges involved in putting it all together
that they will have to deal with. “The cast is huge, we have a tiny stage and we have a tiny backstage. We could barely fit everyone last year and we have more this year,” Brown said. With so many people it will be hard to make sure everybody is on task, and that clashing personalities don’t cause issues. “Sometimes the more people you add to the mix, the more potential you have for people to get mad at each other and have problems with each other,” Barlow said. “The more people we have the more potential there is for that. So we’re really going to be focusing a lot on being unified as
a cast.” All of the students are going to have to put a lot of work in both during practices and on their own time. “I’ve been watching the Broadway musical on Netflix multiple times so I can learn Davey’s style,” Smith said. “I’m just trying to do my best to play the role as best I can.” Throughout all this everyone will be keeping the end in mind and focusing of the big performance. “I’m excited for opening night, just performing in general. I was watching the show on Broadway, they’re all singing and after the show the audience is clapping like crazy,” Brown said. “I miss that from last year so I’m excited to have that happen.”
Seniors write, host talk show “Two Stomps and a Chat”

H ENRY DE GROFF
This year, students at NS have put together a talk show, called “Two Stomps and a Chat,” interviewing different persons of interest from around the school. Seniors Trayson Thompson, Salem Kimball and Kaleb Cox have worked with the broadcast class to produce these for the school. This talk show is filmed and put onto YouTube under the show name, but also is shown to students in the broadcast
during advisory class. The show is intended to have some educational value, but it is mostly made for comedy. Four episodes have been filmed, but only two are on YouTube and available to watch. “Last year one of us pitched an idea for the talk show thinking it sounded fun, so we decided to rip off the Eric Andre show, because its funny,” Kimball said. The show isn’t necessarily your usual humor. It is made up of awkwardness, in-
teresting body language and abrupt improv humor. “It’s not really embarrassing because we’re in control, and it is meant to be awkward,” Kimball said. Though these seniors enjoy filming the show, it can be difficult to find just the right person to interview. “They have to be someone who is really involved with the school: teachers, ‘important’ students, Sterling Scholars, SBOs, people in sports and stuff like that,” Kimball said. The show is pretty much like a real talk show, except there isn’t much of a live audience. “It’s basically live because we can’t restart or anything,” Cox said. Because it is an interview, the show can be planned out to an extent, but not really rehearsed, though it takes a lot of work to prepare for. ww After filming, they must edit it all together to fit in the broadcast. Though it’s hard work and takes a lot of time, none of the creators feel like it’s a hassle. “I honestly just love the whole process, planning the interviews, editing the interviews, doing the interviews and then see-
ing how it all comes together,” Thompson said. This talk show is something that gives these guys real job-like opportunities through the school, and they enjoy every bit of it. The idea for the show was made feasible by Barrett Hilton, the film teacher at NS, who lets his broadcasting class film the show and use it as a learning experience. The talk show is filmed in the morning before first hour starts. “[Hilton’s] sense of humor kind of lines up with ours, so that’s nice,” Cox said. The students will continue to film episodes weekly, and update the YouTube channel, so feel free to check them out.

“Super Mario Party” modes provide unique spins on the game
BY K AJE NIELSEN
Whether this is your first time playing a game in the “Mario Party” series, or you’ve played them all, “Super Mario Party,” for the Nintendo Switch is an absolute delight. The “Mario Party” series has existed since 1998; the first game was released on the Nintendo 64. Since then, there have been two additional games released on the Nintendo 64, four released on the Nintendo Gamecube, two released on the Wii and one released on the Wii U. There have also been several handheld titles that aren’t considered part of the main series such as “Mario Party DS” for the Nintendo DS and “Mario Party: The Top 100” for the Nintendo 3DS. Each of these games is unique, but they are all virtual board games with Mario characters. They consist of dice rolling, hair pulling and playing intense minigames that give players bonuses. “Super Mario Party” keeps the qualities that have kept players through all of the years, but also introduces many new con-
cepts such as “Partner Party” or “River Survival.” Some of the modes incorporate teamwork, while in others it’s every man for himself. The game is also spectacular in the fact that it contains oodles of content and different things to try. The first mode I tried was the classic “Mario Party” mode. In this mode, players work against each other in a pursuit to obtain the most stars and coins, retaining the original gameplay style rather than the new concept in “Mario Party 9” and “Mario Party 10.” The players start by determining the length of the game, and then they move around the board using dice blocks, choosing where to turn and what to spend their coins on. After each round, a minigame is played to give players bonus coins. The minigames are one of the biggest highlights in the game, as each one is unique and many utilize skills that most gamers never thought they would have to use, such as steak frying and guessing what type of vibration their remotes are playing. After the game is over, the winner is determined by who

has the most stars, and the coins are used to break any ties. Because of this, skill, luck and strategy are all required if the player hopes to win. The second mode I tried was “River Survival.” In this mode, players use the controllers as paddles and attempt to ride across a dangerous river without running out of time. This requires players to work together, and communication is essential. Players can prevent themselves from running out of time by playing teamwork oriented minigames, where success puts extra time on the clock. These games can include trying to catch fish with a net or lighting all of the torches in a gloomy manor. While you can play this mode with artificial intelligence, it is much more fun with real people. Next, I tried “Sound Stage” mode. In this mode, players compete to see who has the best sense of rhythm by playing a series of rhythm-oriented minigames with the system’s motion controls. This could be hitting a baseball at the right timing or whacking a mole. It’s sur-
prisingly good exercise as well. Next, there’s “Toad’s Rec Room.” Here you can play some minigames that are a bit longer and more advanced than the ones you play during the other modes. Many of them also find clever ways to utilize two Nintendo Switch systems, so friends who both have the game can play exclusive games together. My favorite game here is the miniature baseball game. Finally, the last mode that I tried was “Partner Party.” This mode is a remix of the regular “Mario Party” mode in which you work in teams of two instead of free-for-all. Players also choose where they move their
characters instead of moving across spaces in a specific order. In addition to these modes, you can also play minigames by themselves, or go through a series of difficult minigame challenges in “Challenge Road.” Also, if you have a “Nintendo Switch Online” membership, you can play mini-games online with players from across the world. On top of all of the fun and different features offered, this game also has beautiful graphics showing tremendous amounts of polish. “Super Mario Party” is a fantastic game, whether you’re a hard-core gamer or just someone who wants some family fun.
