COLOR DAY 2018

PHS colors were embodied by students and decorations in orange and black across campus for the 80th annual Color Day Friday, Sept. 28. Color Day is a cornerstone, an annual pinnacle celebration of Tiger spirit at SPHS, encouraging students to express their enthusiasm through bold apparel and an engaging day of community oriented events. The day’s festivities were ushered in early, with students arriving at 6:45 a.m. to present their spirit-themed costumes for the class competition. Competing student groups and faculty departments were judged by a panel of ASB members, who scored the costumes in three categories: effort, use of color, and originality. SPHS teachers danced to “All Star,” followed by performances from each of the Pep squads. The band Next Exit, composed of seniors Akash Rathi, Johnny Xiao, and Martin Jean Kim, played “Seven Nation Army.” Members of ASB, dressed as athletes from Monrovia, La Cañada, Temple City, San Marino, and South Pasadena, staged a skit modeled after a Mario Kart race which — in the spirit of Color Day — South Pasadena was victorious. The first place costume for the senior class took inspiration from the La Croix sparkling waters sold in the SPHS cafeteria, naming themselves the La Croix Boys. Following the La Croix Boys, Cousin Itt came in second, and the I Love It group placed third. The Pot Bellies, dressed as sunflowers with planting pots placed around their waists, beat out a team of

The object hunt competition requires a student representative from each class to find an object with qualities described by Commissioner of Athletics senior Jack Sanders. Following Color Day traditions, the classes also faced off in a tug-of-war, where the juniors took down the seniors in front of a raucous crowd, but were ultimately defeated by the sophomores who had previously overcome the freshmen. Commissioner of Spirit Rebecca Wang concluded the assembly by introducing the Homecoming Royal Tiger Court seniors Lexi Gomez, Grace Kim, and Hyurk Ju Lee, junior Charlize Kruzic, sophomore Dylan Sevilla, and freshman Noah Kuhn. The homecoming theme, “This is SParta: When Tigers and Gods Collide,” was also announced during the assembly.

New take on TAG Day goes beyond GPA recognition STORY LILIAN AZAT PHOTO ALICIA ALDERETE

SPHS recognized and awarded students for their academic success as part of the annual Tigers Achieving Greatness (TAG) Day on Thursday, Sept. 27 and Friday, Sept. 28. Commissioner of Academics senior Grace Kim organized the event differently this year, with the intent to recognize and honor all students that excel in many different aspects of school, rather than just GPA performance. Traditionally, students received TAG recognition if they were in one of three categories: students who held a 4.0 GPA, 3.5-3.9 GPA, or showed a .5 or greater increase in GPA in the previous spring semester. In years past, students received a small button with a symbol representing TAG. This year however, ASB members passed out paper slips during fourth period, which permitted the students to leave 10 minutes early and pick up ice cream on the Tiger Patio. On Color Day, Kim held a raffle in which all students were entered. The winners from each grade received a drawstring bag full of candy and stress balls while a grand prize winner drawn from an all SPHS student raffle took home a Amazon Echo Dot. “There is no denying that grades are extremely important, yet they are not all that constitute an accomplished individual,” Kim said. “Some people work extremely hard academically, but things just don’t work out for them. I feel that just the fact that students have grown intellectually and morally shows great achievement.” Kim’s main motivation for altering TAG Day this year was to provide recognition of all hardworking students, even if they don’t have a high GPA. She believes academic and high school achievement includes extracurriculars and beyond. In providing more recognition to all students, Kim hopes to promote mental health on campus in relation to academics. “As Commissioner of Academics, I not only wish to award students and serve them, I want to be someone who everyone can talk to,” Kim said. “Someone everyone can feel comfortable around, and most of all, someone everyone can call a friend.” Kim is hopeful that her changes will continue to be implemented in years to come and plans on partnering with the SPHS Peer Mediators to promote mental health awareness, helping all students lessen the stresses of school this year as well as provide support and guidance for all of the student body.

SPHS Chinese department anticipates first trip to China STORY ADAM KWOH PHOTO ANDRÉS OYAGA

he SPHS Chinese department announced its first organized trip to China in partnership with the Chinese Ministry of Education and held an informational meeting for those interested on Tuesday, Sept. 25. The program, titled “The Dragon Tour,” will fly students into the Chinese province of Jiangsu to explore the cities and interact with Chinese students during the week of spring break, Mar. 29 to Apr. 7, 2019. Trip committee members in the SPHS Chinese Department and South Pasadena Chinese-American Club (SPCC) introduced the plans for the tour, which will be hosted by the Jiangsu Education Services for International Exchange (JESIE). Representatives of JESIE attended the meeting to talk about the accommodations that will be given to students who attend, as well as to introduce the program and give a first-hand perspective of what the students will experience on a day to day basis. Students will discover the cultures and monuments of the Jiangsu province north of Shanghai while living in the homes of Chinese families and the dorms of Chinese students. The tour will include cities such as Shanghai, Nanjing, Suzhou, and Nantong. Students will also attend cultural courses alongside local Chinese high school students, with classes ranging from Chinese painting to martial arts. Additionally, visitors will tour Nanjing University to experience the differences between education in America and China.

SPUSD School Board president and trip committee member Jon Primuth, a former resident of China and non-native Mandarin speaker, highlighted the unique opportunity of getting a first hand experience of interacting with the Chinese culture. The SPHS Chinese department hopes that the program will give students a newfound appreciation for Chinese culture and aid students who attend the trip in their classes back home. “Students will be immersed in not only the language, but the culture,” SPHS Chinese language teacher and program coordinator Melissa Cheng said. “They will be able to apply the knowledge they have learned and acquire more knowledge that will help them in the classroom.” The trip’s sponsor, SPCC, and its student club hope to fundraise during Homecoming Picnic in order to cut the total estimated $980 cost for parents, as well as to fund faster transportation during the tour. Registration is prioritized for students taking Chinese, but is open to all students regardless of their language learning program at SPHS. The interest for registration form on the SPCC website will close on Oct. 9 at 10 p.m.

Students will be immersed in not only the language, but the culture. They will be able to apply the knowledge they have learned and acquire more knowledge that will help them in the classroom.”

South Pas revisits Metro’s Measure M Proposed plans include new traffic signals and extended bike routes STORY NICOLAS LIU South Pasadena residents gathered at City Hall to provide input on how to spend the $1.2 million allocated for the first five years of subregional projects funded by Measure M on Tuesday, Sept. 18. Developments discussed during the meeting included the creation of new traffic signals and bike paths on streets around the district’s five schools and additional bike routes connecting the Gold Line Station to the public library, schools, and parks.

COMMISSIONER OF ACADEMICS Grace Kim and senior Louis Jamerson distributed ice cream to students at lunch during TAG Day.

The Fair Oaks Avenue Bikeway is one of the newly discussed additions that would extend from the northern city limit to Huntington Drive and create linkages between the Gold Line Station and other city buildings. Construction of the bikeway would also mean the addition of Class II, or one-way bike lanes, between Monterey Road and Huntington and a Class III route, a merged pedestrian roadway accessible to both cyclists and drivers, extending north from Monterey. The meeting’s presentation also introduced plans for operational and safety updates to traffic signals and curb lines at Mission, Marengo, Garfield, Fremont, and other streets near the elementary, middle, and high schools. Metro also has many long-term projects currently in progress. One of the largest for the region involves extending

the Gold Line to Claremont, an estimated billion-dollar project. This will add six new stops, including Glendora, San Dimas, La Verne, Pomona, Claremont, and Montclair to the Gold Line. Construction for this project began in December 2017, but riders will not be able to use the new stations until 2027. Funding for these projects was raised through Measure M, a voter-approved sales tax established by Metro in November 2016 to finance multiple large scale transit, highway improvement, and pedestrian improvements. Since then, Metro has gathered local input to determine which projects will be funded by the new measure, with the underlying goal of improving traffic and air quality as the Los Angeles population increases. The Arroyo Verdugo Communities Joint Powers Authority (JPA), an organization formed earlier this year consisting of members from Burbank, Glendale, La Cañada Flintridge, Pasadena, and South Pasadena, will give a presentation on Wednesday, Oct. 17 at City Hall with updates on current and future sub-regional programs mentioned following last week’s meeting. The JPA must also gather additional public insight to determine which of the listed projects to prioritize during the year. Construction on the projects will begin after approval from the governing boards of the JPA and Metro.

STEM construction approaches completion The project, which began work in late 2017, will open its doors to students second semester STORY CHRISTINE MAO PHOTOS JAYDEN EDEN

onstruction of the new math and science buildings is now approaching completion, with approximately 75 percent of the construction finished. This project is scheduled to be completed on time in late November. Construction workers are currently working on electrical and plumbing finishes as well as the installation of an elevator located in the two-story math building. Flooring of the math building will commence towards the second half of October, with the single-story science building directly after. The floors will remain as exposed concrete but will be sealed and glazed for a smoother and more polished finish. Ceiling beams are currently visible, however constructors are planning to paint them black and insulate the ceiling with black paper foil. “The progress has picked up steam in the past few months and [we are] moving strong to the finish for December 2018,” Balfour Beatty senior project manager Deni Valderrama said. “We have the big obstacles out of the way now and on the home stretch to finish.” The Balfour Beatty company faced several challenges with the small work site, which made logistics severely difficult. To work around this, the team had to minimize the materials on site and use the practice field frequently, without influencing any school activities. Another challenge was relocating existing water and sewer lines located on the southern section of the project. Because the original documents detailing the location of the water and sewer pipes had to be researched and the information was not readily available, this issue took around two months to resolve. Safety for both workers and students was a large concern through the

duration of the project. Fortunately, there have been zero injuries that resulted in lost time on site thanks to daily precautions. The team would discuss safety highlights every morning prior to any work activities and had every member on site received a 30 minute safety orientation on their Zero Harm program. They made sure that the perimeter fencing segregated the public from the site and that flagmen were stationed with every equipment that was carried in and out of the barrier. In the process of designing and constructing these two math and science buildings, the architect team also tried to incorporate the needs of the both teachers and the high school as much as possible. “There were a host of meetings that occured between the architect, the district team, and the department chairs,” Superintendent of Schools Dr. Geoff Yantz said. “The department chairs would meet with the teachers within that department to gather input and then take it back to the architect and the district team. Revisions would be made, more information and input would be brought back, so there were countless iterations to the interior and designs.” The project is anticipated to be completed by November 2018 with the dedication scheduled for December. Classes are expected to move into the new STEM building second semester in January 2019, when students return from winter break.

The progress has picked up steam in the past few months and [we are] moving strong to the finish for December 2018. We have the big obstacles out of the way now and on the home stretch to finish.”

FLOORWORK IN THE MATH BUILDING will commence in late October, and exposed ceiling beams will be painted black and insulated.

JUUL vs. Cigarettes: nicotine products under fire STORY CAT FLORES, CAROLINE KIMBEL, RACHEL LU, & MADDIE YOO

PAGE DESIGN ELAINE YANG

GRAPHICS TALLULA CHOW & MADDIE YOO

Everything about JUUL is attractive — from its users to its mobility, its size to its colorful marketing. And now the company is under fire as thousands of teenagers are buying into its product. Just as cigarettes were marketed towards minors, vape products are successfully appealing to today’s youth. Now, it is very common to spot teenagers using JUULs, vapes, sourins, or wax pens. JUUL, created to be a healthier alternative to cigarettes for adult smokers, has instead become popular among youth, sparking a nationwide epidemic. In 2017, more than two million middle and high schoolers used JUUL. On Sept. 12, the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) warned JUUL and other e-cigarette companies that the brands must provide evidence in the next two months that they can keep the hazardous trend out of adolescents’ hands. JUUL has since complied to the FDA’s threat, but the damage continues — the cemented craze continues to spread. JUUL’s marketing is strikingly similar to that of the cigarette in the 1900s. The cigarette was the symbol of social status and popularity, and now it seems that JUUL is following in the harmful product’s footsteps with its similar marketing strategies. Advertised with neon colors and youthful models, JUUL is seen as cool and trendy; Tiger takes a look into how JUUL has become the modern cigarette.

Cigarettes In the 1960s, cigarettes were advertised as an attractive social activity, enticing youth. Nowadays, vape companies are directly targeting kids, marketing vaping as the stylish thing to do in this generation. Since social media is so prevalent in teenangers’ lives, JUUL and other vaping companies target teens by advertising their products on platforms like Instagram and Snapchat. Social media influencers and Youtubers promote JUULs without even realizing it, by casually juuling in their videos or pictures. Some Instagram accounts are even dedicated to showing off vapes tricks or reviewing different vape products.

Today, the cigarette is viewed by the majority of society as a symbol of hazardous and addictive danger. Smoking is now only legally permitted in very specific areas and never around children age 12 or younger. Yet, this is not how it has always been. From the early 1900s through the 1960s, smoking cigarettes was seen as a sophisticated and glamorous activity.

The JUUL ads themselves are often bright and colorful, and promote the idea that vaping and using JUULs is a lot less harmful than actual cigarettes. JUUL pods are also customized with flavors such as mint, cucumber, and fruit medley, which makes them more fun and personal. JUULs are marketed like affordable luxury products, and like other makeup, electronic, or clothing products, kids want to show off their new purchases. This advertisement plays a big part in teens feeling like juuling is cool, attractive, and harmless.

Despite these health risks, teens are still buying JUULs at an alarming rate. A recent survey by Truth Initiative this year of more than 1000 kids aged 12-17 showed that 74 percent of teens get JUULs from a physical retail location, 52 percent from a social source, and six percent from the internet. It is easy to mistake a JUUL for a flash drive, which makes the electronic cigarette difficult to keep out of the classroom. Without JUUL being adjusted to stop attracting students toward its use, more and more teens will be pulled in by this new nicotine product.

63% DON’T KNOW THAT

THE PRODUCT ALWAYS CONTAINS

Beginning around 1960, cigarette companies started gearing marketing more heavily towards teenagers to increase sales. They wanted to send the message that smoking would acclimate them better into society. Winston’s cigarettes sponsored a popular TV show at the time: The Flintstones. Eventually advertisements started being released in which the popular cartoon promoted Winston cigarette use. Similarly, celebrities were sponsoring cigarettes and even Doctor’s were promoting cigarette use in advertisements at the time.

However, this new fashionable fever of vaping among teens is not as healthy as most may think. JUUL pods carry five percent nicotine and have 200 puffs or as much nicotine as one carton of cigarettes. While juuling might seem like just a once in a while activity, nicotine has been proven to be a highly addictive drug. There are also many new chemicals in vaping products that pose more health risks among youth, including lung and oral cancers caused by tobacco. E-juice causes arterial stiffness, which is associated with an increased risk of heart attacks and strokes.

Prior to the banning of cigarette advertisements in 1970, companies like Marlboro used lifestyle advertising tactics to associate smoking cigarettes with heightened masculinity. A commercial released in 1955 featured a man working on his car while smoking a cigarette and opened with the line, “This is a man who smokes Marlboro cigarettes. What kind of a man is he?” The commercial convincingly makes it seem as though smoking makes men more dignified and macho. The ultimate marketed symbolic connection between cigarettes and manlihood, however, was the Marlboro Man. He was a white, adventurous cowboy who smoked cigarettes and represented the Marlboro brand. Prior to the companies masculinity advertising tactics, their cigarettes were actually aimed towards women -—yet it was not successful. Upon switching the gender they aimed at, sales increased by 3,241 percent in only a year according to Ad Age.

The cigarette advertising tactic was very successful. In 1964, it was reported that 4,500 new teenagers started smoking cigarettes every day. Today, cigarette use is still relatively prominent among youth regardless of the immense amount of medical research that has been done denoting it. About 3,200 teenagers smoke a cigarette for the first time each day. However, it should also be considered that there is a much larger teenage population today than there was in the 1960s and that most nicotine teenage users are consuming are E-cigarettes and vapes nowadays. The JUUL ad campaigns towards teenagers have largely been inspired by the success of youth marking for nicotine in cigarettes throughout the 1900s. JUUL company and cigarette advertisements also have many notable parallels.

When Does Free Speech Justify Hate Speech? The religious pamphlets distributed in front of SPHS spark conversation of where to draw the line between free speech and hate speech.

woman has been standing on the corner of Bank and Fremont before and after school for the past few years, attempting to pass out religious pamphlets to SPHS students. Their religious aspect is not what phases students; instead, it is the homophobic remarks contained in them. Although it is her constitutional right to spread her beliefs and opinions to whomever she pleases, some have considered her remarks to be a blatant form of hate speech. This woman is protected by her First Amendment rights, which state that the government cannot place laws into effect that restrict or promote a specific religious practice, or laws that limit publications in the press. While she is technically off school property, her presence still feels intrusive. Additionally, she hovers over students and attempts to force her beliefs onto them, hoping to sway the minds of youth that are clearly still impressionable. The woman isn’t technically violating any laws, but that doesn’t justify her attempts to change high schoolers’ viewpoints against a minority group. The discomfort it creates with students serves as a reminder that freedom of speech should not be an acceptable excuse for hate speech. Beyond her questionable morals, the woman is also very aggressive when passing pamphlets to students. “There’s a lot of times where I literally have to push her hand away,” junior Jessica Lat said. “A lot of the time I question whether she’s even allowed to do this because it just seems very invasive.” Members of LGBTQ+ community at SPHS also feel ostracized by the woman’s homophobic actions and remarks, which create feelings of discomfort.

“Anyone saying that homosexuality is a sin, or anything similar, makes me extremely uncomfortable,” junior Jackson Monical said. “I wish someone as hateful as she wouldn’t stand in front of our school.” Other organizations use effective methods for keeping unwanted presences away from their boundaries. Planned Parenthood dealt with their numerous protesters by enforcing a fifteen-foot buffer zone around all entrances and exits of the building. This form of protective legislation was established as constitutional under Members of City Council v. Taxpayers for Vincent, a 1984 Supreme Court case. In this case, the court ruled that the city of Los Angeles was allowed to ban the posting of signs on public property because the city characterized the signs as “visual clutter.” It is important to note that any form of legislation that bans a form of expression must not discriminate based on political alignment, and must be carefully worded to curb a specific issue. It must also have defined restrictions of time, place, and/or forms of expression. Ultimately, the issue of hate speech on or near a school campus comes down to how students are entitled to feel safe both in and around school. People who stand dangerously close to school boundaries and suffocate passing students with hate speech shouldn’t be allowed to continue. Solutions to protect students exist and should be enforced. A buffer zone outside of schools to prevent students from feeling unsafe is ideal, but students themselves cannot do much to implement this legislation. However, what they can do is show administration and the city that the solicitation of hate speech is offensive and is making students uncomfortable on campus. Students should never be put in a position where they have to compromise their education in order to feel safe. School campuses should not just be centers of education, but safe spaces where students don’t feel targeted.

Feminism is not a bargaining chip Women in power should not be supported if their opinions or policies are harmful towards women. STORY CAT FLORES ILLUSTRATION NICHOLAS FORMAN

fter conservative commentator Tomi Lahren defended Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh about his rape allegations, conservative women have started portraying her liberal critics as anti-feminist for tearing down Lahren, a prominent woman in politics. The reasoning behind this is that women should support other women, even when their political beliefs contradict. However, Lahren doesn’t uphold feminist values. Feminism isn’t blind support for any woman who rises to power, rather, it is supporting women’s rights and equality. It often seems like when one woman takes on an important position of power, it is progress for the feminist movement, and as such must be supported by all women. Most people would agree that everyone should respect women in power. Kellyanne Conway serves as the Counselor to the President. A large part of Conway’s job is to advise Trump on how to appeal to female voters and gain their support. However, she does not consider herself a feminist in the “classical sense.” She believes that the term is associated with “antimale” and “pro-abortion.” She considers herself an “individual feminist” instead. Conway’s dangerous misconceptions of feminism reinforce the far-right beliefs of some government

officials, which allows for promotion of policies that harm women’s rights. Her position only worsens the current political divide and sets back movements of progress. Women should have meaningful statuses that change the political climate of America for the better. It is important for people who will advocate for all women to be given a platform, not ones who will continue to promote policies that undermine women’s rights. A woman in power should not be an excuse for someone to be able to check a box when she really doesn’t advocate for women. We should respect all women, but this doesn’t mean always supporting them. Respecting women means respecting them as as individuals, not just reducing them to a gender. We should respect a woman as a CEO, a politician, or a principal, before we consider her gender. Being a woman is part of who they are, and that should lead them to be more informed about certain issues, but it also not all of who they are. There is much more to someone’s identity than their gender. Anyone can be a feminist. Feminism is simply the advocacy of women's rights on the basis of the equality of the sexes. Feminism should not be separated by political parties. The principles of feminism apply to everyone; you shouldn't let your political stance stop you from pushing for equality.

Safeguarding young gamers from toxicity STORY LUYANG ZHANG ILLUSTRATION DAVID SOHN When I was six years old, my idea of fun involved going outside to play tag and hide-and-seek with my neighbors. Since then, the physically engaging games I once played have lost some of their popularity to competitive gaming from the booming eSport industry. Many competitive multiplayer games attract players from a great range of backgrounds and ages to a common corner of the internet where numerous methods, usually chat rooms or audio chat, exist for players to communicate with each other. While establishing these connections can promote a representative and diverse environment, it more commonly breeds a melting pot of clashing opinions that reduces group conversations into counterproductive and offensive mudslinging zones. All game developers need to join parents in striving to protect children from vicious or "toxic" comments in and outside of active gameplay while encouraging constructive behavior to ensure that young individuals who are surrounded by online influences understand how to address internet toxicity. The common expectation for parents who wish to regulate their children’s exposure to negative online content is that they will personally monitor or limit their child’s screen time. However, few parents have enough time to constantly oversee their children’s online activity or enforce the rules they determine, and those that do tend to micromanage their

children, which eliminates their ability to gain valuable life experience in exploring internet culture. To confront these issues, some developers have reformed their discipline systems to facilitate positivity within the gaming community. The creators of Overwatch, a video game that is currently popular among adolescents, have been very successful at minimizing inner-game toxicity. In addition to the standard system in online games that allows players to report toxic individuals, the game designers have recently introduced the Endorsement system, which permits the gaming community to recognize helpful players to reinforce positive behavior as well as punish negative ones. Another recently implemented arrangement, the Looking for Group function, helps reduce toxicity by empowering players to reach out to find a group they work well in. The game will also track patterns in toxic behavior outside of the game on social media and online forums such as Twitter and YouTube. As a result, reports as of 2018 state that abuse chat has declined 26 percent in competitive matches and daily abusive players had dropped 29 percent in the Americas. Video games don't need to be prohibited or kept away from people; parents don't have to force their children to play outdoors, out of reach of their consoles to keep them from being influenced by the toxicity that arises from many of today's video games. The creators of video games should, however, make sure that the content and interactions are safe for their intended audience.

OONA FOLEY | WE LIVE IN A SOCIETY

Unreciprocated friendships Increasing stress levels throughout high school has meant increased output from a lot of my friends: more emo finsta posts, more late nights, mental breakdowns, and on my end, more distressed phone calls. And so I have decided that senior year is the year of discarding meaningless relationships. One-sided relationships are draining, unsustainable, and no one should be making time for them.

occasionally, it just so happens that the balance may be skewed. But when an entire relationship dynamic spirals into an extreme disparity, the friendship is no longer valuable and needs to be either cut off or seriously intervened. Being a good friend doesn’t mean putting up with incessant complaining, excessive talking, or someone who never initiates hanging out. Just like romantic relationships, red flags should tell you when to cut out toxic friends.

There is something to be said for helping a close friend through a difficult time. Meaningful friendships demand a certain devotion of energy from both parties; and

I, myself, have bought into unhealthy relationships, making unrealistic promises like “I will always be here for you” or opening myself up as a resource for people I

don’t know that well who are having a hard time. This is not fair to me or anyone expecting my time. These broad, empty words often serve as filler phrases used to comfort friends, but realistically hold no place in high school relationships. High school friends aren’t free therapists. No one is entitled to an ear or a shoulder if they themselves don’t offer the same. Commiseration accounts for a huge portion of high school culture, and is often the source of connection among classmates. But everybody needs to close their ears at some point, holding oversharers accountable to keeping their entitlement in check.

Searching for objectivity STORY & ILLUSTRATION MADDIE YOO

n this age of political polarization, President Trump frequently tweets statements that members of the media call out as false, and his supporters then claim the media itself is untrustworthy. Who is to be believed? Historically, the press served as a watchdog for our political system, ensuring that the public was educated and accurately informed. Today, Americans are increasingly skeptical of the media. It is easy to blame our politicians for misleading the public, but we also must recognize that the media is failing in its responsibilities. News should be unbiased and trustworthy, but unfortunately opinion is subtly included with alarming frequency. Journalists, like everyone else, have personal views and backgrounds, and their beliefs and experiences are embedded into their reporting. Some subjectivity may appear through unintentional word choice and prioritization of details; other more blatant bias may appear through manipulative quotations and omission of unfavorable facts. Some media outlets clearly align with conservatives and others with liberals, and it is difficult for the public to know who to trust. Virtually all claim that they are truth-tellers, yet a close read demonstrates that few are neutral. This variable reporting can be seen in the recent coverage of allegations of sexual assault by Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh. Reuters, Fox News, and Huffington Post each covered this issue but in very different ways. Reuters

presented the most objective approach, featuring quotes and arguments from both Republican and Democratic lawmakers. Fox News appealed to its primarily conservative audience. The Fox News headline first captures readers’ attention: “Kavanaugh accuser Christine Blasey Ford demands ‘full investigation’ by FBI before testifying, in letter from her lawyers.” The term “demands” strikes a negative tone, characterizing Ford, the accuser, as aggressive. The article focuses on quotes from House Republicans that cast doubt on Ford’s veracity. It prominently features a quote from Democratic Senator Dianne Feinstein in isolation that appears to question the merits of the accuser’s claim, but, in context, simply addresses the need for a comprehensive review of the matter. Fox News’ coverage of this story does not lie, but it does mislead. Huffington Post reported the same story with a largely liberal slant. The Huffington Post headline takes a different focus, stating: “Kavanaugh Accuser’s Lawyer Says Rush to Hearing Is ‘Not A Fair Or Good Faith Investigation.’” The reference to hurried proceedings portrays the Senate response negatively at the outset of the article. Huffington Post’s coverage does not include any Republican views, is saturated with quotes from Ford’s lawyer, and concludes with a passionate statement by Democratic Senator Kamala Harris. The Fox News’ story and Huffington Post’s reporting, while factual, are not neutral. The media must be independent from politics. The news should not be promoting beliefs — it should allow individuals to

create their own. But, it seems as though we cannot find such independence. The news is frequently far too partisan. If we cannot rely on the press for independent reporting, it becomes more difficult to distinguish falsehoods and propaganda from truth. Clearly, politicians’ exaggerations and even lies foster a growing distrust in America. However, the media’s approach to narrating facts exacerbates the political polarization in this country.

The media has lost Americans’ trust and needs to earn it back. It is confusing — so many sources report on the exact same event and yet present entirely different accounts. Each may be factual and contain statements which individually are accurate. But, somehow, each leaves a different, persuasive mark on the reader. It often is the subtlety of the bias that makes it so influential — readers believe that they are forming their own views on a subject, but really, the author crafted it from the beginning.

Don’t put me on a ‘woke’ pedestal STORY MAYA WILLIAMSON ILLUSTRATION DAVID SOHN I am known in my social clique as the token “woke” friend, there to explain all things problematic to those of my peers who are less socially aware. This trope is itself problematic in nature. As I have come to understand, being a woman who is more outspoken on social issues comes with an invisible list of responsibilities and expectations, a list that I and many women who find themselves in a similar position never agreed to. This metaphorical list includes a greater expectation from others to hold, understand, and explain all liberal media and viewpoints. I work hard to educate myself as much as possible on problems that affect people of other ethnicities, socioeconomic class, and gender identity so that I can have a better understanding of other peoples. Still, I am often confronted by white, liberal men who look down on me for not being on top of the more trivial liberal activities, such as indulging in all aspects woke media including content that doesn’t necessarily fall under my realm of interest. When we call out women in this way, it’s not because we believe what they do or say is actually harmful, but because they don’t fit a specific stereotype created by liberal men of the elite female activist. This image of the white, pussy hat-donned woman that is constantly aware and angry isn’t an easy or happy existence, and it definitely shouldn’t be what women aspire to. In many ways, calling out women is a tactic liberal men use to pat themselves on the back for being woke. While caring about social issues is definitely a step up from

men who do nothing to educate themselves, the call out culture perpetuated by liberal men comes from the same root issue of toxic masculinity and arrogance. A bigger issue lies when men don’t hold other men to this standard. When men don’t have a full understanding of certain social issues in casual discussion, we allow them a free pass, trusting that they’ll learn someday. In contrast, women are expected to have already educated themselves. When men call out women because they expect more from them, no real education happens, just shaming. Women should be granted the same learning curve that is given to most men. Expecting women to know everything only perpetuates liberal elitism. Additionally, women are expected to speak on behalf of the feelings of other minorities, experiences of which they have no personal understanding. This is especially prevalent in South Pasadena. In a city that leans heavily to the left and where many ethnic minority groups are underrepresented, white women are expected to speak on behalf of many different groups. These expectations only validate whitesplaining and do nothing to encourage an intersectional view of feminism and politics that affect more than one race, gender, or economic class. A single white woman can’t speak on behalf of the feelings of all white women — let alone all women or all minorities. Queer women, women of color, poor women, and disabled women all experience varying levels of discrimination; just because she understands her own experience doesn’t give woman the understanding or authority to speak on the experiences of all women or minorities.

White people of color My older sister and I are very similar. Her former teachers always comment on how we have the same mannerisms, speech inflection, and even handwriting. We share a specific taste in art, design, and music, and despite the usual stereotypes of the sibling personalities, we are generally the same in thought. The greatest difference between me and my sister is physical. Most can’t tell we are siblings largely due to the fact that we don’t look the same race. My sister looks Filipino like my mom; she’s very petite and thin with the same darker complexion as all the women on the Filipino side of our family. In contrast, while I have more facial features in common with my mom, I developed my dad’s pale skin tone, freckles, and thicker hair. Because of this, even though we are exactly the same percentage Filipino, we experienced a realization of our sense of self in very different ways.

JAPANESE STREET FOOD is served in numerous variations at Mama Musubi, the family business that originated at 626 Night Market before its expansion to the South Pas Farmers Market.

pbeat music and a smoky aroma of grilled corn drifts through the streets of the South Pasadena Farmers Market. Families enjoy their time strolling from stand to stand; the farmers market serves as South Pas’ primary outlet for an extensive variety of locally-produced cuisines. As one of the only stands offering Asian cuisine Mama Musubi draws attention from locals yearning for a taste of Japanese street food. Rice balls folded with nori and crispy spam musubis have attracted customers everywhere. This triangular delicacy consists of premium brown or white rice and filled with savory concoctions of various meats, including spicy tuna, salmon, pork belly, sausage, and Jidori chicken. Addictive, delicious, and distinctive, the phenomenal homemade rice balls, musubi, and fresh poke bowls have proven as products that many families love and enjoy. “I come to the Farmers Market every Thursday and Mama Musubi by far has the best customer service around here,” a local customer said. “I’m always greeted with sweet smiles and polite manners. One great thing about this stand is that they serve their food relatively quickly. Their delicious musubis are made with the softest rice and one of my favorites, the Spicy Tuna Musubi, has a tangy and spicy flavor that is extremely addicting. I would highly recommend this place to anyone who enjoys Japanese cuisine.”

As you mingle among the crowds and gaze at the stands filled with tasty delicacies and organic products, you’ll spot Mama Musubi located at the Mission St. end of Meridian Ave.overflowing with hungry customers. The familyoriented ideal of Mama Musubi fits seamlessly with the values of the close-knit market. The atmosphere is affable, with the operators of the stand greeting the customer with friendly and genuine smiles. Phillip and Carol Kwan first launched their operation at 626 Night Market in 2012, and after a short period of time and a successful opening, the sibling duo spread their small business to six different locations and markets in the Los Angeles area. Despite branching out, the goals of Mama Musubi have remained the same. With two children of her own, Carol Kwan strives for “healthy wholesome food available to everyone.” Over the past few years, young families have consistently returned to the restaurant and weekly markets for the delectable Musubi, forging a bond between Musubi and the Thursday tradition. “It would be hard for us to stop selling Musubi at farmers markets because we have become a part of the community,” said Carol Kwon. Mama Musubi will always be a staple at the South Pasadena Farmers Market. As they continue to expand locations, their Japanese street food will remain a coveted meal in the Farmers Markets.

Growing up, my sister thought she was ugly. She believed her skin tone made her look like a monkey and she convinced herself that the only beautiful people had blonde hair and blue eyes. While I would have agreed with that last sentiment through much of elementary school, and had many physical insecurities starting at a young age lasting through high school, none of them were ever connected to my race. It is for this reason that I have never selfidentified as a woman of color. Filipinos are people of color, and I wholeheartedly believe that biracial people like my sister and I can identify as people of color regardless of percentages. But for me, in all my whiteness, I don’t believe I experience life in the same way as a person of color. My sister, whose race shows on her face, didn’t embrace her Filipino heritage in the same way I did as a young kid. For her, the Filipino pieces of her personhood were largely focused on the physical aspects that set her apart. Her brown skin and fine hair categorized her as different from other Arroyo Vista elementary schoolers and thus became an ingrained part of her identity. I, on the other hand, felt a much greater disconnect from my Filipino side. Because of the way I look I felt a constant need to validate my Filipino side with a greater demonstrated interest in the culture; I’ve dedicated more time than my sister has to learning the language and forgotten customs, and searching for new Filipino restaurants and recipes. For me, being a person of color is about how you experience the world, being of different ethnicities is about your culture. Because of how I look, I experience life most similar to the way white people do, so I don’t identify as a person of color, but that in no way diminishes my Filipino heritage or my experience as a biracial individual.

The cars serve as the childrens’ main mode of transportation and help them think independently from their caretakers.

Helping disabled children hits close to home, and is something that Ballagh considers very important to her.

The upperclassman spent this summer in the office of California’s current congresswoman, Democrat Karen Bass, who represents the 37th district. She advocated for the congressional campaign of Democrat Katie Hill, reaching out to underrepresented communities in California’s 25th district to promote voter registration. Ballagh devoted herself to the campaign, rallying political support by going doorto-door in the summer heat and holding community events. Ballagh’s commitment to these activities highlights her intelligence and work ethic. Perhaps more impressive, though, is her genuine willingness to contribute to her community, bettering the lives of those who haven’t a clue what her name — or nickname — is.

CREATIVITY IS ESSENTIAL to senior Ohad Gilbert’s musical design process. His skill set spans the entire musical spectrum, but culminates largely with synthesizers and sequencers. STORY DOMINIC MARZIALI PHOTO ANDRÉS OYAGA

hen it comes to producing music, junior Ohad Gilbert does not do anything by the script. Many of Gilbert’s interests are wholly unique and unseen, and as he is more modest than most, they often go unnoticed by a majority of SPHS. Gilbert, characteristically unassuming and calm, has tested his hand with various instruments — in elementary school he pursued guitar and drums — and more recently, with building and playing synthesizers. In the summertime of 2017, Gilbert and a friend from Las Vegas stumbled upon synthesizers and sequencers, sparking a hobby that brought about countless late nights listening to underground bands downtown. The unique instruments pumped out sounds that felt fresh to Gilbert, prompting him to purchase his first synthesizer. Synthesizers allow Gilbert, who loves consistent, bassy tones, to generate patterns of notes and vivid sounds, providing a gateway into his newfound obsession. “I found this one really interesting synthesizer from the Czech Republic, people hand make them. [When I bought it] I didn’t understand anything about it — [the synthesizer] was just a little box that you plug a bunch of wires into. I sort of just owned it but I never really fully [understood] it for many months,” Gilbert said. Gilbert’s enticement with electronic instruments rapidly expanded, turning him to other avenues. High-end synthesizers and sequencers, machines that create drum beats in either a specified order or randomly, are costly and out of reach for many budding artists. Not discouraged, Gilbert turned to cheaper, “novelty” sequencers, much like the synthesizer he acquired from the Czech Republic. Undeterred by his inferior instruments, Gilbert insisted on feeding his dream, mainly because of the original notes he could make that sounded authentic and completely different than anything another band may produce.

INVOLVED AND INNOVATIVE, junior Quyen Ballagh is constantly challenging the status quo — on the campaign trail of Democrat Katie Hill and in her “Go Baby Go” work.

His hilarious antics dominate every social scene, eliciting eye rolls, smiles, and laughs; unfortunately for Dicker, he must take his foolery beyond the classroom, where his actions are often not permitted. Nature is his solace. “My most memorable experience was probably going down a rapid in my junior guides camp with two boats stacked on top of each other and around 20 kids on them trying to paddle,” Dicker said. His love for nature sprouted at the age of seven, when Dicker started camping with his family. Nature served as his refuge from the stresses of life — Dicker has camped all over California, and in Oregon and Idaho — still, school regulated the frequency of family trips. Then a middle-schooler, Dicker found rock climbing to be a suitable, accessible outlet to tap into his passions.

“Synthesizers are, in my opinion, one of the most expressive forms of creating music because you can change the sound however you want. You can create any sound imaginable through synthesizers.”

Nature is the best classroom

Rock climbing started as a channel to express himself but now the senior competes on the Stronghold climbing team. His coaches have influenced him in a significant way; rock climbing is currently a major part of his life. Beside his coaches, all of the people he meets while either rock climbing or rafting have unique stories that inspire him to make the most of his time out in nature. Dicker also coaches younger kids, which fulfills him because he sees himself in them. “I love it so much. I get out of school and go climb until I have to go home. I also coach mostly younger kids and it’s really fun to work with them on climbing and helping them get better,” Dicker said. “It’s really awesome to watch them succeed and get all excited about it.” Dicker’s outdoor adventures are much more than a pastime. He understands the importance of preserving nature, seeking to study a field involving environmental science and sustainability.

Behind all of the jokes and punchlines, he undergoes strong character development and easily relates to the audience.

STORY MATTHEW TSAI ILLUSTRATION NICHOLAS FORMAN Kevin Hart has held starring roles in countless comedic features over the past decade. The films habitually engross audiences in their trailers, but ultimately present a lackluster plot marred by an excess of unfunny minor characters. Despite two hours of Hart’s quality humor, Night School is yet another jumble of comedic chaos. Hart portrays Teddy Walker, a successful salesman. As Walker proposes to his girlfriend Lisa (Megalyn Echikunwoke), he unintentionally detonates explosives in his workplace, resulting in his termination. Walker struggles to find a job as a high school dropout and concludes that a GED will solve his problems. He enrolls in night school, hoping to bribe his way to the certificate, but is quickly disrupted by the no-nonsense teacher, Carrie (Tiffany Haddish). Unable to succeed in Carrie’s class, his life falls apart. Walker must learn to focus and pass the test in order to put his life back together.

Whenever the focus shifts away from Hart and Haddish, the film quickly becomes stale. Lisa is one-dimensional and only serves to motivate Walker. Walker’s old high school nemesis, Stewart (Taran Killam), is yet another dull plot device with a five-second character arc. Then, there are Walker’s night school classmates, whose names are forgotten immediately after their fleeting introduction and add nothing to the film. Lee attempts to provide development for multiple minor characters, but ends up taking away from the stars and dragging the movie for a painfully long time. Not only is Night School loaded with unnecessary characters, but it is stuffed with terrible humor and unamusing sequences. Hart’s and Haddish’s comedic timing is excellent, but many of the attempted jokes come from the supporting cast. Most of the minor characters fail spectacularly, resulting in pathetically unfunny scenes. Although Hart and Haddish form a fun, energetic duo, Night School is an atrocious mess; it is riddled with awkward jokes and overstays its welcome.

Elbows Mac: A tragic twist on a childhood classic STORY MATTHEW TSAI PHOTOS JAYDEN EDEN

midst the large buffets and shops of the Cerritos Promenade, Elbows Mac N’ Cheese’s exterior is lackluster and unattractive. Yet, the humble restaurant is home to the food that has set social media interest aflame. The interior immediately distinguishes itself; alternative rock music streams in the background, light bulbs are strung from the ceiling — luminescing against yellow, white, and brown walls, and laminated flooring gently glistens, creating a homey, modern feel. Elbows Mac N’ Cheese takes an eccentric, modern twist on everyone’s comfort food, offering dishes that blend other cuisines to create numerous flavor combinations. Choices range from pizza mac, to spinach and artichoke grilled cheese sandwiches, to lobster mac and cheese. The wide variety is enticing to even the pickiest of eaters, but to some, the unique options prove to be off-putting. The macaroni and cheese itself is excellent. Each pasta dish contains al dente mini elbows and a melted cheese sauce. A lightly-baked layer of cheese graces the top of the bowl, topped with the tiniest of bread crumbs. The elbows are perfectly tender and firm. The baked cheese gives a balance to the pasta, providing a crunch to each bite. However, Elbows Mac N’ Cheese consistently stumbles in their execution of unconventional dishes; their creativity prohibits them from producing a cohesive dish. “Wingin’ It,” a customer favorite, is the buffalo macaroni. The buffalo sauce

fuses with the cheese, along with chunks of chicken, and blue cheese sprinkled on top. Ideally, it would be a tangy and spicy addition that complements the milder mac and cheese. Yet in “Wingin’ It,” the sauce permeates and overpowers the entire dish, transforming it into a fiery red mess. Elbows also fails to deliver on the simplest of meals. “When Pigs Fly” is Elbows’ bacon mac, with stringy swiss and gruyere cheese. Although thinly sliced, the strips of bacon dominate the rest of the bowl. Highly saturated with salt, the bacon takes away flavor and taste from the other ingredients, resulting in a disappointing bowl of mac. Elbows Mac N’ Cheese is so distracted trying to bring forth the most innovative options, the actual macaroni and cheese is left behind. Elbows Mac N’ Cheese also gained attention with their “Chipstix”, a full potato that is sliced in a downward spiral, similar to a rotini pasta, and deep fried until golden. It is served lightly-salted with a side of ranch or nacho cheese. The “Chipstix” is crunchy, with the texture of a baked chip and the savory flavor of a french fry. In theory, it is the perfect complement to any dish, but in reality, it falls short. The potato is not cooked with consistency; there are instances of crisp perfection as well as moments of soggy letdown. With high prices for small portions and a disappointing execution, Elbows Mac N’ Cheese simply fails to deliver the unique experience it promises.

ith Halloween just around the corner, we decided to venture beyond the borders of South Pasadena to the terror of Universal Studios’ “Halloween Horror Nights.” The annual event is being held from Sept. 14 to Nov. 3, with tickets ranging from $60 to $97. Universal showcases its most frightening mazes and scare zones for the Halloween season. We were excited to see scenes from Stranger Things reenacted as well as the classic horror films, including Poltergeist and Halloween. To avoid the long lines and grab a quick bite, we arrived at Universal City Walk an hour before the park opened. Unfortunately, when the gates opened at 7 p.m. there were already crowds of people flooding the park. Our entrance triggered an attack from scarers donning bloodied pumpkin costumes and carrying chainsaws

and axes, sending us sprinting. Ironically, the only way to seek refuge was to look straight ahead and stroll calmly towards the rest of the park. The anticipated highlight of Horror Nights was the Stranger Things maze; a main attraction at the park because of the hype surrounding the popular sciencefiction show. As fans of the show, we were amped up to see our favorite characters come to life. Demogorgons lunged at the audience and character Joyce Byers chased people with an axe.

The attraction featured disturbing representations of holiday characters, such as a mauled Easter Bunny and zombified Santa Claus. While daunting, it felt out of place amongst the themes of the other mazes. The most terrorizing attraction was undoubtedly “Trick R Treat,” based upon on the 2007 horror film about Sam, a mysterious trick or treater wearing a burlap sack who kills anyone who breaks a Halloween tradition. Upon entering, we were deceived by a model house decorated with cute lights and ghosts; an actor dressed as a halfRed Riding Hood and half-wolf lunged at us, causing us to scream and fall to the ground. With no time to recover, an actor dressed as Sam ran at us from behind a wall, sending us scrambling.

HOLLYWOOD-THEMED MAZES featured the reenactment of popular horror movies and paranormal shows, providing a downright terrifying experience for thrill-seeking visitors.

Other mazes included “Halloween 4,” “The First Purge,” “The Horrors of Blumhouse,” “Universal Monsters,” and the “Terror Tram.” Although neither of us had seen “Halloween,” we were instantly terrified by the depiction of Michael Myers’ gruesome kills. Another ‘80s classic was the “Poltergeist” maze, which immersed us into the movie, showcasing the signature static TV and eerie clown doll. All of the mazes stood out on their own and stayed true to their theme. We asked to be scared, and Universal delivered.

Is there a new rival?

GRAPHIC TALULLA CHOW

outh Pasadena and San Marino High Schools used to exist as one, but much like Remus and Romulus, the two brothers struck up a rivalry when the school split in two in 1955. Paul Crowley, who graduated from South Pasadena the year that the split occurred, masterminded the idea to create a rivalry, which has prevailed for 63 years. However, after decades of competition, different teams have developed new and distinct Rio Hondo League rivals. The debate between tradition and competition for playoff spots have changed many perceptions regarding San Marino in recent years. As the rivalry becomes more of an obligation handed down through the generations, schools like La Cañada and Temple City have emerged as greater adversaries due to more even matchups. Tiger polled various fall sports athletes to see who they considered to be their biggest Rio Hondo league rival. Girls’ cross country deemed La Cañada their rival because of their similar competition times, since most other teams have recently been unable to keep up with the Tigers and Spartans. The boys team, who have dominated the league in the past years, claims to be rival free, though occasionally quick runners have come out of Monrovia and La Cañada in recent years. Similar to cross country, boys’ water polo does not find much trouble in league nor in CIF qualification, although all the boys surveyed asserted Temple City as their most admirable opponent. Girls tennis had conflicting opinions on whether their rival was Temple City or La Cañada. Although several premises were developed on the basis of CIF qualification, others like senior Sheila Li felt it was time to put an end to La Cañada’s continuous victories. “We really want to beat La Cañada because we’ve struggled against them during our high school careers,” Li said. “We have the best chance to win this year now that both our singles and doubles players are strong.” Girls’ golf, although acknowledging San Marino as their general rival, felt the greatest need and desire to defeat Temple City following their current season’s trend.

CONTRARY TO POPULAR BELIEF, many athletes don’t consider their main rivals to be San Marino. Out of 35 fall athletes surveyed, 12 identified La Cañada as their most hated opponent, compared to 11 for San Marino. Maintaining tradition, football deemed San Marino their adversary. To this day, a plaque is exchanged by the school’s principals following each football game, with the winner and score of the game engraved onto the plaque.

“San Marino is currently in first place, and they also took the final CIF spot last year for Rio Hondo,” senior Madison Abundo said. “We weren’t able to beat them in our first matchup, but we’re ready to get revenge on our home court.”

“San Marino has always been our biggest rivals,” senior Wyatt Osburn said. “A lot of us also know guys on their team, which makes it a lot more competitive.

Although most fall sports have deviated from the orthodox rivalry, the Tiger-Titan battles will continue to exist. Much like the scores on the Crowley plaque, the contention between both schools has been engraved in both history and tradition. With the two schools in close proximity and sharing a common origin, the rivalry will prevail through time.

Girl’s volleyball, although clashing the most with La Cañada in recent years, have established their rivalry with San Marino.

What happens in XC, stays in XC STORY MAYA WILLIAMSON PHOTO ALICIA ALDERETE All South Pas sports teams have a definitive vibe: the water polo boys are bro-y, softball is pessimistic, and badminton is underappreciated. The sports team with the most pronounced and confusing atmosphere however, is without a doubt the cross country cult. At face value, cross country is not much of a strategic sport; athletes don’t need to memorize plays or work on communication to perform well. You might expect that because most practices focuses on the individual, the team would lose a valuable sense of teamwork. However, with a team that so regularly dominates the competition as South Pas XC does, each runners’ biggest competition is often themself or their teammates. This environment breeds a playful type of competition and encouragement that truly bonds the runners. Over the course of the season, every member of the cross country team runs close to 800 miles over countless hours, giving them plenty of time to create some pretty insane rituals. During an average meet it’s not rare to see multiple team members proudly toting around a bread flag or hailing Megazord of Power Rangers at the end of a long run. You could ask where these customs originated or their meaning, but often you won’t get a straight answer. Whether the intricacies of the joke are too complex to explain to an outsider, it’s a secret special to the team, or the members don’t actually understand the traditions themselves, it’s often difficult for non-XC runners to relate to the bizarrely specific ways of the team. Traditions created by seniors of years past are upheld and honored by underclassmen who don’t necessarily understand the

TOTING THE TRADITIONAL CROSS COUNTRY FLAG, captains Sarah Uriarte and Alekzander Grijalva embrace the eccentric culture of the cross country team. context of the inside jokes they keep alive. Traditions are continued year to year for the sake of being tradition, and the bonds they help form between all members. Ask almost any team member what their favorite part of XC is and most will respond with “the friendships.” “My freshman year I definitely had my friends and the people I knew on cross country separated,” said senior and co-captain Alekzander Grijalva. “But as the years progress I got more sucked in and they became the same

group of people. Now as a senior, I sit at a table with almost exclusively cross country runners and we do everything together.” While all the athletes truly get a thrill out of running (another strange habit that sets them apart), the greatest appeal of the sport is the team. For years, cross country’s admitted cult-ish ways have given life to the strongest friendships, some of the sweetest power couples, and one of the most consistently powerful teams in SPHS history.

Strength of scheduling: a game with no winners win the first matchup between the two this season.

STORY MATTHEW TSAI

ftentimes, a team’s success is heavily dependent on the time spent preparing during preseason. The preseason is an important time available for the development of skills, team chemistry, and fitness. Teams must thoughtfully organize preseason games to best ready their players, as these schedules can make or break their season.

Girls’ tennis’ approach has differed from water polo’s, yet they still have enjoyed early success in the season. They scheduled four games against teams with league records under .500. With easy competition, the players could play relaxed and focus on improving their weaknesses.

With an myriad of objectives, coaches need to choose which areas to focus on in order to shape their schedule. There are many factors that go into the coaches’ decision making. The players must have enough game experience together to gel as a team, but also need to be fresh and healthy for the season. Some prefer to schedule matches against lower competition, but run the risk of being easily overpowered by strong league opposition. These variables prove to be tough to juggle, and make a perfectly planned preseason nearly impossible.

Tennis has improved from their slow 1-3 start last season, boasting a 2-1 record. After a preseason filled with inferior competition, girls’ tennis must be in top form in order to defeat league leaders San Marino and La Cañada and finish with a winning record.

A common strategy is to book matches with higher competition in hopes that the team will learn from the game experience and grow as a team. The boys’ water polo team earned a spot in the Santa Barbara Invitational, one of the top tournaments in California. The Tigers, a newly promoted Division III squad, played five Division I and II teams, playing tight with each of them and even winning a game.

Other coaches may elect to arrange as many scrimmages as possible, allowing the team to gain as much experience as possible. Girls’ volleyball utilized its preseason time to participate in 12 games in three weeks. With nine additions to the team, these matches were vital to developing skills and experience, as well as gauge the new team dynamics. “Preseason is not that important winning-wise, but I think it’s really important for getting to know the team and how we play together,” sophomore volleyball player Lexi Schroeder said.

“The tournament gave experience to everyone in really competitive and high quality games,” junior captain Evan Kowal said. “Even [during] the games that weren’t so close, we were still able to have flashes of success against some really good teams.”

While water polo has benefited from numerous preseason matches, not every team aims to do the same. The preseason has been brutal and unforgiving to the football team, playing six games without a bye week. Starting quarterback and kicker Justin Huff has been ruled out for the season with a broken femur. With Huff out, the Tiger offense has struggled mightily and could be in for a long season.

Water polo has begun league play well, crushing the La Cañada Spartans 15-7 in the season opener, thanks in part to the experience gained from the invitational. The team will face Temple City, the reigning league champions, on Thursday, Oct. 4. After losing to the Rams twice last season, water polo has prepared in the preseason and expects to

Preseason matches — although often thought as meaningless — have the ability to affect a team’s entire season. As perfect schedules will never exist, teams must pick their poison and trust that the decisions they have made will pay out in the long run.

Volleyball avenges loss in crucial league victory STORY RAYMOND YEO PHOTO JAYDEN EDEN After going 6-1 during a crucial stretch of league play, the 2017 SPHS girls’ volleyball team arrived at Monrovia to play a must-win CIF qualification game. However, the team underperformed and were swept by the Wildcats in three sets. The late streak was ultimately for naught and the team missed CIF qualification for the first time in 12 years. Rebounding from a heartbreaking season, the girls have transformed last year’s pain into passion. The team concluded a battle-tested preseason with an 8-4 record, playing notable teams such as Flintridge Sacred Heart and Culver City.

SPIKING AT THE NET, freshman Abby Garner sends a ball hurdling towards a Monrovia player.

Although its record does not show, the team played several sloppy games through the first half of league play this year, including a bitter loss against the Titans. The Tigers met to review film the day before they played Monrovia, determined to spoil another Wildcat triumph and polish up their game. The meticulous preparation payed off in the end and the Tigers were able to shift the league momentum in their favor once again. Although the Tigers dropped the first set, South Pas resurged and began to assert

their dominance in the second set. Key to the comeback were freshman Abby Garner and senior Kimberly Brown, who provided pivotal blocks and rained down kills throughout the match. The team defeated the Wildcats in four sets, a product of their most refined game to date. With a postseason berth seemingly inevitable, the team boasts a strong 4-2 record in league and is tied for the second place spot with La Cañada. Although a league championship is still plausible, the Tigers will have to defeat formidable opponents, such as San Marino and La Cañada, in their rematches. With just four league games remaining before playoffs, the underclassman heavy team will continue to rely on libero Lindsey Hirano and opposite hitter Lola Foord as catalysts. Hirano’s quick and relentless movement in the backcourt setting up a barrage of Foord kills have been a go-to play for the Tigers throughout the season. The team’s pursuit of a league championship will resume in an away game against La Cañada on Tuesday, Oct. 2, at 3:30p.m. SPHS defeated the Spartans earlier this season, and will seek to stand alone in the second place spot with another victory.

Gameday 10/2 Girls’ golf at Alhambra Boys’ water polo vs. San Marino Girls’ tennis at La Cañada Girls’ volleyball at La Cañada

Football seeks strong finish after San Marino loss Following the takeaway, senior quarterback Jaden Gallego had the ball stripped in the endzone, killing the short-lived momentum the Tigers had gained. Throughout the course of the game, South Pas was unable to string together multiple productive plays, only managing to drive the ball once into the San Marino redzone. “There were good moments were we did a good job of recognizing their offense and stopping the run, but we also had not so good plays like missed tackles and turnovers,” Coach Chi said. “Those [missed tackles] have been an ongoing problem, and we need to fix that.” The color day defeat was a culmination of the Tigers’ season long problem with injuries on the offensive side of the ball. With quarterbacks Justin Huff and Samuel Luna-Long each sidelined from a knee and shoulder injury respectively, the relatively inexperienced Gallego had trouble consistently delivering accurate passes to Tiger wideouts. As for the accurate passes, they were dropped, resulting in zero completions on the night for the South Pas offense. An injury to senior starting lineman Nathaniel Quirk late in the game will further hurt the Tigers’ efforts to control the line of scrimmage.

THE LINE OF SCRIMMAGE wilted against the superior Titan pass rush. STORY PRESTON SHARKEY PHOTO TONY CHEN A defeated Tiger football team watched on as San Marino celebrated its Homecoming in a colorful firework display lit during Friday night’s game. Unfortunately for South Pas, the football team was unable to find any offensive spark of their own. The Tiger offense was shut out for the second straight game, as they dropped their opening league game, 50-0 to the rival San Marino Titans. Missed tackles and a weak running defense have continued to plague the SPHS defense throughout their ongoing four game losing skid. The South Pas defensive line was unable to occupy blockers up front against San Marino, leaving the safeties behind them vulnerable to the much quicker Titan running backs in the open field. South Pas was unable to capitalize on the few stops the defense was able to come up with. In the second quarter, senior defensive back Ruben Echeverria picked off the Titan quarterback in the own endzone and fell to the ground for a touchback.

League Checkup

“Injuries have affected us greatly this year, for both sides of the ball we had to rely on players to play positions they have sometimes only practiced for a week on,” Quirk said. “With our small roster we have to rely on many players going both ways, making it harder for those to remember their new jobs as well as their old ones.” The struggling offense is averaging a mere 5.25 points per game over the last four weeks, while the defense is surrendering a whopping 49.75 points to the opposing offense. South Pas will also need to limit the opposing rushing attack, giving up nearly five touchdowns a game over the same span. Junior running back and receiver Ivan Estrada will hope to reignite Tiger offense over the final few games with his speedy playmaking abilities. Despite suffering a lopsided defeat at the hands of the rival Titans, the Tigers will look forward to the final three league games against more beatable opponents. SPHS’ best chance for a league win will come in their final game against the 1-5 La Canada Spartans, a team they easily beat by 35 points last year. This Friday, the Tigers will hope to hang with the talented, reigning league-champion Monrovia Wildcats team at home. Monrovia is coming off a dominant 42-6 win over Temple City, following a preseason in which they went 1-4 against a tough schedule.

idway through Rio Hondo League play, the rival San Marino fall sports teams are atop the Tigers in four out of six fall sports. The Titans took control of the race for the league volleyball championship with a hard-fought 3-2 win over La Cañada. Through six games, the Titans are in the driver’s seat with an undefeated record and a seven winning streak.

As a Division I team playing in the RHL, the Titans girls’ tennis team is on track to win league again. Through two league matches, San Marino stands at 2-0. However, South Pas sits right behind them at 2-1 and await the rematch between the two teams on Oct. 11.

On the gridiron, San Marino will look to reclaim the RHL title after losing a decisive game to Monrovia last year. The Titans got off to a strong start, with a 4-1-1 non-league record and a 50-0 win over South Pas last Friday. Senior Titan running back Beau Hobbie is the current favorite for Rio Hondo League MVP; he rushed for five touchdowns against SPHS. Their only competition for the league title is the Monrovia Wildcats, who soundly defeated Temple City in their first league matchup.

Meanwhile, in San Marino’s first year in the Rio Hondo Golf League, the Titans are primed to dethrone South Pas as the perennial league title favorites. San Marino defeated South Pas 192-213 early in league play and sit atop the league standings with a 6-0 record. The South Pas girls’ golf is still lurking behind the Titans as their main competition; the Tigers improved their record to 3-2 with a victory over Gabrielino. While the Titans are league favorites in the aforementioned sports, South Pas is in contention to win the RHL in water polo and cross country. The Temple City Rams are hoping to fend off a talented Tiger water polo team to win back to back league titles. After a tightly contested battle last year, the Rams and Tigers will face off this Thursday in Temple City with the top spot in the league standings on the line. While the South Pas boys’ cross country team has a strong grip on first place in the RHL, the La Cañada girls’ XC team edged out the South Pas girls in the first league meet. The Spartan girls won the Rio Hondo League last year, and are in position to repeat as champions with one RHL meet remaining before league finals. The games over the next two weeks will be crucial to determining whether the Titans can retain their top spots in the RHL standings, or whether teams like South Pas and Monrovia will be able to catch them.
