A junior calibrates a laser engraver for construction teacher Bryan Werner so that it can be usable by the end of the year. Calibration of the engraver is important as it can be used as a way for students to put designs on certain materials or cut certain materials so that it doesn't misfire and hurt someone. ""The hope is to get the engraver to be able to make marks on different spots so that it can then be able to engrave a design into the material," the student said. "The materials the engraver can cut through are wood and polycarbonate."

Junior Claire Lollar listens on the phone during "Bye Bye Birdie". Claire plays the role of Kim McAffee in the musical. "I love theater," Lollar said. "It's just a different way to express yourself compared to other forms of art. It's just a fun way to push yourself outside of your comfort zone. The different shows each year have a different dynamic especially figuring out the show, the sets, all the transitions and the costuming. It's also a different bond. Last year, it was like a family and this year it's even more of a family. Even though it's still a lot of people, we all have gotten so close over the past few months."

Sophomore Zoe Land finishes her drive on the eighth hole in a match against Roncalli. Land placed first individually for the first time in her varsity career and looks to bring that momentum into the Trojan Classic. “I have confidence that I can go into the Trojan Classic and put up a good number,” Land said. “I definitely think I can have a similar performance at the Trojan classic because I tend to play better when I play 18 because I can get in a groove and stick with it.”
