UGA CHAMPIONS

On Jan. 9, 2023, the Georgia Bulldogs won the National Championship, making it their second consecutive win and fourth win overall. They played against Texas Christian University (TCU) and beat them with a score of 65-7. TCU started as the underdogs of the competition, defying the odds and winning games up until the final game. However, Georgia’s determination and concentration set them apart. Georgia’s star quarterback, Stetson Bennett, accounted for six touchdowns in the game (four passing and two rushing). He also won the 2022 Manning Award, an award that is given annually to a quarterback that the Sugar Bowl Committee deems the best in the country.

On Feb. 2, 2023, the junior class council hosted Northview’s annual International Night. It featured 18 performances, with 132 students taking the stage to represent over nine countries including South Korea, China, and India. Students performed songs in their languages, with Sofia Mang performing a Vietnamese song “Hôn Anh.” The night’s emcees, seniors Sujana Vangala, Joon Kwon, and Luke Marshall, took the stage with quips and jokes, from Marshall singing “The Star-Spangled Banner” to Kwon having a “Kwon Off” with senior Mikey Kwan.

“When Ms. Hart told us it’d be a night to remember, it really was—the new bonds, the thrill of standing in front of hundreds of people, the energy,” Kwon said. “It was a type of adrenaline that stuck until four hours after the show. Being such a crucial role in a well-put-together show really is quite the unforgettable memory.”
