Q&A WITH MCLEAN STUDENT ATHLETES TAYLOR STAATS & SPENCER SIROTZKY REPORTERS
AARON BREMSER WHAT ARE YOUR THOUGHTS ABOUT SPORTS RETURNING? Sports should be able to go on with the proper accommodations. WHAT WAS THE BEST PART ABOUT BEATING LANGLEY LAST YEAR? The best part about beating Langley was the fact that we won in front of our whole entire school, and it was a great environment to play basketball in.

JUNIOR BASEBALL PLAYER IF YOU WERE NOT GOING TO PLAY BASEBALL, HOW WOULD YOU SPEND YOUR TIME? I’d probably just keep working out for baseball and get better any way possible.
SENIOR BASKETBALL PLAYER
WHAT’S YOUR BEST MEMORY FROM LAST SEASON AT MCLEAN? My favorite memory from last season was just being with the team. We had such good chemistry.

ISAAC BELL TRYING OUT FOR FRESHMAN LACROSSE TEAM
ARE YOU ON A TEAM OUTSIDE OF SCHOOL? I play for the travel VEL team and fierce nation league. WHAT IS YOUR BEST HIGHLIGHT FROM YOUR MOST RECENT SEASON? When I was scored as a long stick middie off the face off. WHAT DO YOU LOOK FORWARD TO THE MOST ABOUT PLAYING FOR MCLEAN? I look forward to better competition and getting back out onto the field.
HOW OFTEN DO YOU WORK OUT? I work out four times a week. I work out my glutes and my legs mostly, and I run for 1.5 hours. DO YOU MISS YOUR TEAMMATES AND COACHES? I wish I could be closer to them and talk without standing six feet apart. I’m excited to get working again.
