Sophomore Tyler Kruse smacks principal Scott Reid in the face with a pie on Pi Day. SOUTHERNER PHOTO/ROCHELLE WEYMOUTH
Pi is sweet for math classes
a circle.
In the math classes of
Amanda Brown, Angela Cooper, Diane Nurrenburn, and
Amanda Sefton, students had
the opportunity to submit a
video of their own “Tribute to
Pi.” All of the entries were reviewed, and five finalists were
selected. Students then voted
for their favorite videos, and
the winners turned out to be
sophomores Tyler Kruse and
Allyson Schneider. They made
their own “spoof” to Vanilla
Ice’s “Ice, Ice Baby.” The classes enjoyed all of the videos,
but this one in particular made
them fall out of their seats
laughing.
For his effort, Kruse was
allowed to give principal Scott
Reid a pie in the face. It was
a chocolate pie with whipped
cream and cherries on top.
“It was so funny when
the pie flew out on everyone,”
said senior Christina Pohl.
Furthermore, students
got to rotate between differ-
ent stations in their classrooms
to learn more about the number pi. There were all different
kinds of games, such as using
pipe cleaners to find circumference and diameter of a circle.
Another station involved reading the Indiana Pi article.
Another game had students place one of the circleshaped objects on a sheet of
poster board, and fill it up until it was full. Everyone in the
math classes that day agreed
that they all had fun.
On March 2, people all
around America celebrated
“Read Across America.” This
day was created by the National Education Association and is
an initiative on reading.
The purpose of “Read
Across America” is to motivate
children to read, an important
factor in student achievement
and in creating lifelong successful readers. “Read Across
America” began on March 2,
1998. The National Education
Association sponsors spearhead the program with support
from more than 50 national
nonprofit and association partners. Some 50 national organizations and associations give
their support, in addition to the
3.2 million elementary and secondary teachers, higher education faculty, education support
professionals, school adminis-
trators, retired educators, and
students preparing to become
teachers who make up NEA
membership.
To celebrate this day at
Gibson Southern, the English
classes of Kelsey St. Ledger
and Kyle Brasher read Dr. Seuss books and got into groups
to make their very own children’s story. The stories were
given to the students with an
outline for what their story was
supposed to tell.
St. Ledger’s classes were
given a story about an animal’s
bad day. Each class made one
book each. Each student of the
class was given a page to create
by themselves to put into the
book. In Brasher’s class the
students were told to get into
groups to make a page for the
book.
St. Ledger’s third period
class made their book about
a pig. Murtle the Turtle was
the main character in St. Ledger’s fourth and seventh period
classes. Brasher’s class made
their story over Stan the Sloth
from Seattle.
Sophomore Taylor Kiesel
said, “Writing the book was
fun. Everyone participated in
writing their own pages and
drawing pictures to go with
them. After our book was com-
pletely done it was very funny.”
“The plot and the elements of the childrens’ stories
are similar to the plots in the
novels and the short stories.
By looking at these childrens’
stories, you can find a happy
version of the story with a creative ending,” said St. Ledger.

March 14 was a special
day in the geometry classes
here at Gibson Southern: Pi
Day! Pi Day is the one day each
year when the irrational number pi (3.141592…) is celebrated
because of the date — 3/14.
The number is a significant part of numerous geometric calculations, especially
ones including the area of a
circle and the circumference of

Eighth graders experience “Titan Quest”
On March 18, the current eighth grade class came
to the annual “Titan Quest” program. The night included
a presentation depicting the different diplomas offered
at Gibson Southern, and several clubs advertising the
highlights of being a member of their respective organization. “Titan Quest” served as a night to welcome the
incoming freshman class, and gave them a taste of what
they can expect throughout their high school career.
Beta Banquet Canceled
Due to the lack of reservations to the annual
Beta Banquet, the honorary ceremony was forced to
be canceled. Refund will be given to those who have
already paid.

An
opinion
about
opinions
Jordan Wallace
Co-Editor-in-Chief
One thing that I will
never understand is why
people can’t let others have
their own opinions. Nothing makes me angrier than
when I see or hear someone
tell someone else that their
opinion is wrong and then
proceed to shove their own
opinion down the person’s
throat. If that other person
isn’t allowed to express
their own individual opinion, then why should you?
Now, I understand
that people are never going
to agree with each other
every single time. That’s understandable. In fact, there
are plenty of times that I
completely disagree with
someone else’s statement. I
may even state my opinion
to them and tell them why
I disagree. The difference,
though, is that I would never call that person out for
speaking their mind and tell
them that they’re wrong.
It all comes down to
respect, people. No matter
how wrong you think someone is, let them think what
they want. You can even
congratulate yourself and
have the silent satisfaction
of being “right,” but that’s
one opinion to keep to yourself.

Lesson #7: auditorium etiquette
• Don’t leave your trash lying in the middle of the aisles. There are trash cans
easily located throughout the auditorium.
• No matter how comfortable it is, do not put your feet or legs on the auditorium seats. Having a nice auditorium is more important than your 50
minutes of comfort.
• Be respectful of the theatre equipment that is backstage. If it’s not yours and
you don’t know how to use it, don’t touch it.

Lady Titan tennis looks to #SmashCancer
Martin Coyle
Sports Writer
The Lady Titans’ tennis team, along with Princeton’s Lady Tiger tennis team
and the Jr. Titan tennis team,
have teamed up in an effort
to #SmashCancer. The three
programs have been selling
Nike Dri-Fit T-shirts with the
#SmashCancer logo printed on
the front of them, in order to
benefit a young five year old girl
named Hailee Cunningham.
Hailee is the daughter of
Rick and Rachel Cunningham,
who reside in Fort Branch. Hailee has been diagnosed with an
inoperable tumor on her spine,
and has a rare rhabdoid tumor,
and has spent countless days at
Riley’s Hospital in Indianapolis. 100% of the proceeds made
from selling the T-shirts will
go to the Cunningham family.
”This benefit is doing all it can
in order to provide any help
that is possible to Hailee. In
addition to financial aid, this
is also giving a great sense of
hope to the community and to
the Cunningham family themselves. #SmashCancer is re-
her tough time. The response
from the community is really
heart-warming to see!” commented junior Taryn Goedde.
The match between the
two rival tennis teams will
take place at Gibson Southern on April 11 at 4:30 p.m.
ally a great benefit for a great
cause. It is not only helping
Hailee, but also bringing two rivals together to help her during
On the night of the match,
there will be a ceremony prior
to the commencement of the
match, honoring Hailee, for the
in the District Leadership contests. On March 15, thirteen
members of the FFA went to
Mount Vernon to show other
competitors in the district what
they learned. Students who
competed are as follows: Reece Lamey, freshman; Aaron
Krueger, sophomore; Caleb
Kifer, freshman; Andrew Alvis,
sophomore; Evan Gick, freshman; Issac Sollman, freshman;
Mark Naas, sophomore; Kyle
Gipson, junior; Andrew Hartman, freshman; Emily Simpson, sophomore; Blake Holder,
sophomore; and Rachel Byrns, sophomore. Each member listed presented and/or
gave a speech about what he
learned upon club initiation.
Depending on his/her rank,
some of the members may advance to state competition.
A meeting was held
to elect new officers for next
year. Current officers are Taylor Rexing, senior, president;
Gavin Kissel, senior, vice president; Mitchell Ziliak, junior,
reporter; Mitchell Obert, junior, treasurer; Cory Motter,
senior, sentinel; Austin Elpers,
junior, secretary. The meeting was held on March 19,
2013. No results of the election
were available at press time.
strength she possesses at such
a young age. Ms. Cunningham
will also have the privilege of
opening the match, and hitting the first serve of the night.
“I think it’s a great opportunity for our tennis players to
do an outreach to the community. The purpose for this benefit was that a lot of other sports
teams hold breast cancer awareness games, and we wanted to
get involved in something similar. We did this to include more
people and to raise awareness
for all types of cancer,” said
Kyle Debord, the head coach
of the Lady Titan tennis team.
“I think the idea of Gibson Southern and Princeton
coming together to support a
cause like this is great. The fact
that we are not only supporting Hailee, but all types of cancer as well is amazing,” commented Princeton junior Kayla
Kinsall. “Both of our schools
have already sold loads of Tshirts, and it’s great to know
that all the money is going directly to Hailee to help her.”

The FFA (Future Farmers

other in a basketball tourney.
Twelve teams competed altogether after school on March 7,
2013. “The basketball tournament was only for ‘kicks and
giggles,’ but we still had a great
time playing basketball with
other FFA organizations from
around the area,” said sophomore Shane Murphy. Unfortunately, there wasn’t a prize of
any kind for the winning team.

needs money, but one cannot
fault the student body here
for not giving. Between Sunshine, Pi Day, and the upcoming dance marathon, a considerable amount of money has
been sent their way. But hang
on, one more group will be
sending something other than
cash.
Barbara Brown’s fashion
and textile class will be piecing
together a quilt to send to the
hospital. Brown said, “Most of
the students had finished their
assignments early and I wanted them to do something constructive. I gave them the idea
of piecing together a quilt/
comforter to give to a nursing
home or homeless shelter and
they voiced the opinion of giving it to Riley’s.”
According to Brown the
project will only involve her

Marlene Obert’s business
classes have been very busy
in recent weeks, and will continue to be through the end
of the school year. Beginning
in April, Obert’s classes will
look forward to taking several
field trips. Obert’s sixth period
business law class will travel
to observe a courtroom scene,
and to relate what they have
learned into the real world.
The business law class
has also been the host to several guest speakers. This included Deputy Jeff Hill, who answered the students’ questions
about law enforcement. Larry
Johnson, who is employed at
Rosemeyer Agency, also came
to talk to the business law class
to educate the class over auto
insurance.
Obert’s Personal Finance
class has also been the host to
guest speakers such as Lois
Hill, who is the branch manager of Old National Bank in
Ft. Branch. Hill talked to the
students about credit and general finance. Other guest speakers included Matt Grabbe, who
spoke to the students about
playing the stock market, and
Aaron Luttrell and Grant Waldroup, who spoke about buying and selling real estate.
Obert commented on the
visitors, “The students have
gotten a great learning experience by hearing and observing
all of these great professionals.”

could take students as long as
two weeks to complete a square
for the quilt. “Each student
will be making a block, either
pieced or appliquéd and then
I will make sure they get sewn
together in a top. Quilting uses
a needle and thread to join two
or more layers of material to
make a quilt. Typical quilting is
done with three layers: the top
fabric or quilt top, batting or
insulating material and backing material.
Brown said most of the
work will be done in class and
that since the project was begun late last week, the project
will be ongoing. Brown said
the class hopes to complete
the quilt by the end of the year
and present it to Riley’s at that
time.
Items donated to Riley’s
are given to The Cheer Guild to
be used in the toy room where
over 14,000 items are distribut-
ed each month to patients. The
items are distributed as gifts for
the patients to keep. These gifts
help to aid in minimizing stress
by offering some distraction to
the current situation. Toys can
help to pass the time or can be
used to distract a child during
a painful procedure, while blankets can add color to a hospital
room. The Cheer Guild also has
a wish list of items that are frequently requested by patients.
The Cheer Guild is in
need of many different kinds of
handmade items to be distributed to patients as gifts that
they can keep. They accept
handmade items such as puppy
pillows, pinafores, no-sew blankets, quilts, and tote bags. Donors are encouraged to contact
the Cheer Guild before making
handmade items. Pattern packets and a list of the most current needs for handmade items
are available.

Band prepares to expand its reaches
Hannah Lanman
Co-Feature Editor
Victor Hugo once said,
“Music expresses that which
cannot be put into words and
that which cannot remain silent.” To the students in the
Concert Band at Gibson Southern High School, this is true.
For about 50 students, concert
band is the time to test their
abilities, learn new music, and
possibly, perform it in front of
an audience.
Concert band is typically
just when students sit in chairs
playing their instruments,
whether they are woodwinds,
brass or percussion. The band
works on many things such as
scales, sight reading, rhythms,
and tone production. The
band rehearses at the school
on Tuesday and Thursday evenings from 6-8:45 p.m.
According to Brent Winstead, the concert band music
director, the pieces are especially difficult right now because
they are preparing for the
ISSMA State Qualifier, which is
coming up at the end of April.
They are playing three pieces
of music at this time. The music
is as follows: “Canticle of the
Creatures” by St. Francis, “Assisi Silence Overwhelmed” by
Brian Balmages, and “Colossus
of Columbia” by Russell Alexander.
When asked about the
outcome of the concert band
so far, Winstead said, “The concert band is doing an outstanding job so far this year. They
are working really hard and
will do great at the contest. We
are ahead of where we were last
year at this time, but will have a
long way to go for the finished
product.”

Students venture to the morgue

Asst. A&E Editor
On Friday, February 22, GSHS social studies
teacher Marvin Susott received the Peabody
Energy Leader in Education Award during a
surprise classroom visit. The program director
for Peabody Energy Leader in Education, Maureen Moore, addressed students in Susott’s
world geography class about the reason for
the award. She said he “makes world history
come alive” for students. And that he’s a leader for what he does both inside and outside
the classroom, as quoted by the South Gibson
Star-Times. After the announcement, Susott
stated, “It is a very nice honor to receive.”

What is lovelier than ending spring break with a visit to
the local morgue? Joe Mraz’s
anatomy classes will visit the
Evansville morgue on April 4
and 5, 2013. Nearly all of the
anatomy classes will attend.
One learns about the bodily
structure of a human in anatomy, and Mraz’s classes will
be doing exactly that at the
morgue.
“Half of the students
from each class are allowed at
a time, because there’s a good
chance that most of the stu-
dents will faint,” commented
Mraz. It’s understandable,
though, because the last thing
an employee of a morgue wants
is a bunch of kids with weak
stomachs dropping like flies all
over the place.
One would think the
smell itself would act as a sort
of “knock out gas.” While
there, the students will receive
a full tour of the building, and
learn how new bodies are treated and cared for. Students will
also be taught the methods and
processes a person does to prepare the bodies for the funeral
homes. Additionally, they will
be shown the tasks morgue

pathologists have to complete
on a day-to-day basis. When a
body arrives, a morgue assistant helps a pathologist remove
the organs with scalpels, so the
pathologist can do an autopsy.
After the cause of death
is determined, they put the
organs back. If the deceased
is disfigured, they try to reconstruct the body. Morgue assistants, technicians, and pathologists try to “recreate” the body
in a sense that it will be as close
to how the family remembers
him/her. Once recovered from
the experience at the morgue,
the students will return to the

Chromebooks coming to GSHS
Hannah Lanman
Co-Feature Editor
Superintendent Stacey
Humbaugh updated the board
members on the Google project during the week of Tuesday, February 19,
at their
monthly meeting. The board
took no action at the time, but
the members did voice their
support of the project.
According to the South
Gibson
Star-Times,
the
Chromebooks run on the
Google Chrome operating
system. The device is specifically designed to be
used while connected
to the web and support
the programs used on
the Internet itself.
Examples are programs such as
Microsoft
Office
and
Photoshop.
Officials of the school
are looking at the Samsung
For years, the students
of Gibson Southern High
School have learned through
textbooks and occasional encounters with the Internet. Now, in the
year 2013, our ways
of learning and comprehending class material may be changing.
Beginning next school
year, all students will be
supplied with a Google
Chromebook laptop computer as part a new initiative from the South Gibson
School Corporation and

the Google Chromebook.
Chromebook, which costs
$249 plus a $30 charge for the
management console feature,
which makes it easy to send
information between up to 700
Chromebooks. According to
Google, the laptop has an 11.6inch display, weighs less than
2.5 pounds, and has a battery
life of 6 hours plus. School officials say that the Chromebook
will belong to the students.
The fee will apparently
be included in the annual
textbook fee for each student.
Humbaugh said, “It’s my hope
to work it out so that by the
time the students are seniors,
the laptops will have been paid
for,” noting the students could
use them in college. “For our
incoming freshmen, that’s easy
to figure out. But we’re still figuring out what to do if students
are incoming sophomores, juniors and seniors.”
To have a better understanding of the laptop and the
apps and programs included
with it, John Spradley will
be teaching the students and
teachers how to use the new device this summer. Some of the
training will include using the
Google Apps for Education System. The hope is one day those
apps will replace the standard
textbooks for students. But, in
the meantime, the district will
continue with its textbook program, as reported by the South
Gibson Star-Times.
What happened the day the server died
AAAAAAGGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!!! For anyone who
was near the journalism room
nearly two weeks ago, this
was likely what they heard
when yearbook and newspaper
class’s server died. Yes, it died
— completely. Dead. Kaput.
Not breathing. Extinct. Bereft
of life.
Obviously, this was not
good, since every picture for
the current yearbook and all
the newspapers were stored on
the server.
Just how did this nightmare take place? The journalism classes were aware that the
old server in the room was dying a slow death and the DNR
order was placed. In the mean
Blue jackets,

could see the files. That made
it highly likely we could somehow retrieve it.”
Asay said, “We had a real
problem. We had all the yearbook pictures on there. If they
were gone, we would have to
appeal to the public to provide
us with any pictures they might
have. Some sports would not
have been a big problem, but
there were other things like
cheerleading and Homecoming
that would just be gone. I was
about ready to stroke out.”
The IT department tried
a number of methods to rescue the data, but to no avail.
The drive was then passed to
a local computer firm, but still
could not be rendered. Finally
time, IT Mac guru Adam Bledsoe was slowly moving all the
data onto another two-terabyte
drive.
When the information was finally on the drive,
the plan was to put it on the
school’s server where it would
be protected and would also
be in several spots. However,
it became the perfect storm;
the server kicked the bucket
sooner rather than later, and
the drive the info was being
moved to decided that all the
data should just become “read
only,” effectively making everything unusable.
Sponsor Don Asay said,
“We could see the data, but we
could not do anything with it.
But the good thing was that we

Seasons get longer as sports get harder
Austin Hill
Asst. Sports Editor
As the clock struck
midnight on New Year’s
Eve, many people were
looking forward to a
new year and new resolutions. For me, I was
preparing for school to
start again and after
that the beginning of the
2013 baseball season,
for Tuesday, Thursday,
and Saturday practices
until the first day of official practice for the year.
Baseball
seasons
now just aren’t during
the summer; they are
becoming a year round
sport whether you live
in Alaska or California.
The Major League Baseball (MLB) season starts
in March with spring
training, and goes all
the way through the
end of October. That’s
a total of 8 out of the
12 months in a calendar
year. As a high school
student, I spend about
five months out of the
sport now is that when
you are younger you
grow up wanting to play
in the MLB, so you need
to play travel baseball
to even stand a chance
against other kids to
get a scholarship, or
even get drafted. If you
don’t play all summer,
and even during the fall
you will get passed up
by college scouts looking for kids that play
year round. Living in
Indiana, we don’t get
the same opportunity
year for baseball.
When I was younger, I played on a travel
baseball team that traveled all around the Midwest playing game after
game. I enjoyed playing baseball that much
when I was a kid; I
didn’t realize all of my
summer was taken up
by the sport I love, but
now I realize why I did
it, and why other kids
these days are doing the
same things.
The conflict with the
as kids in California that
can play year round and
get better opportunities
than kids in Indiana.
So, yes, baseball is
becoming a year round
sport, and many kids
are wasting their summers playing a game,
but they should. If they
truly have the goal to
play baseball in the MLB
or in college, they need
to play as much as the
other kids, so they can
have the same advantages as other kids.

Hard work needs to be given more credit
Tabi Pullum
Staff Writer
Some
coaches
like to have open gyms
or weight lifting on the
team’s off-season. Lifting is a great way for the
players to stay in shape
in the off-season and
helps to keep the bond
from the team together.
Each teammate is supposed to be at the open
gyms unless they are in-
volved in another sport
during that time. What I
don’t understand is that
some of the players that
work their butt off during the open gyms and
when weight lifting do
not always get enough
credit for being at those
events.
The players that
don’t always show up or
who only show up when
it is convenient for them
always get the “good
word.” I know there are
days where some players have a logical excuse for not being there,
but sometimes people
just don’t show up to
the team events.
There are some
players on the team
who even disrespect the
coaches and still might
get to play in the game
more than the players
who give all their respect
to the coaches. I am not
saying that all the players who play a lot in the

games disrespect the
coaches, but I have seen
some players do this. I
find that some coaches
just overlook the actions of the players during practices and other
activities the teams do
together.
Some players and coaches drop
what happened in the
past events or practices
when it comes to the
next day of practice or
lifting. Many teams use
the “forgive and forget”
!
method to keep peace
within the team.
I have noticed
on some sports teams
that the managers of
the teams do not get to
participate in extra activities that the teams
do.
Managers don’t
even get to have the
same spirit wear that
the team gets. Not all
coaches take the managers into consideration
when ordering the spirit
wear.

~Explanation of Lame Holidays~
The annual holidays like Christmas, Halloween , New Year’s, and even the Fourth of July can get old after a while of celebrating them. It is a love-hate relationship with the holidays - we love decorating houses or putting window clings up for
them and receiving gifts; however, it just gets old!
Why not celebrate new, unusual, or just plain lame holidays? Everyday there is some kind of celebration around the
world for different reasons. For example, January 27 is Punch a Clock Day because... Why not? Nobody likes time passing
by too fast, so punch it and relieve the stress from the day. March 31 is Bunsen Burner Day (GO CHEMISTRY), and May 7 is
International Tuba Day (congratulations band nerds).

Pi Day
What is the most bizarre, silly,
unusual holiday?
Pi from the Greek alphabet, represented by
the symbol to the left, is one of the most famous irrational numbers used in mathematics. Over a trillion digits
have been calculated for this Greek letter, and still
no pattern has been found within it. Pi has been used
since William Jones first used it in 1706. It wasn’t until
1737, however, that it became popular. It was then
that Leonard Euler adopted it. Now, pi is used to
solve many equations and formulas within mathematics.

Celebrated on February 2, Groundhog
Day is set on the midpoint for winter. It
is the day where if a groundhog
s e e s
its shadow, winter will continue
for yet another six weeks.
However, if the groundhog
doesn’t see its shadow,
spring will come early. This
holiday dates back to the
18th and 19th century and
originated from European
lore for weather.

Titans strong with experience
Austin Hill
Asst. Sports Editor
The Titans’ season will be
in full swing soon as they prepare to play North Posey
in a scrimmage at North
Posey on Thursday, March
21. The Titans had been
participating in open
gym two times a
week, along
with lifting
weights after
school in
preparation for
their
season
before
their
official
practices started.
After losing five
seniors from
last year, the
Titans do not have a lot of positions to fill. Head Coach Chris
May had many good things to
say about his teams upcoming
season. May answered
the following questions about the
Titans and their
2013 season.
What
are
some of the changes to the coaching
staff?
We
have
some
shuffling
around of coaches
this season. Kent
Martin will handle
the pitchers again
and assist the varsity.
Mickey Harpenau will assist the
varsity as well. Dustin May is
again the JV coach. He will be
assisted by Ryan Marvel, in his
second year with the program.
Eric Campbell who played professionally until this year , will
help out when his job at UPS
allows him to be here.
What are your goals
for the season?
Like every year we want
to have a winning record. Win
the conference and do well in
the Tournament at the end of
the season.
How will this team differ
from last years?
We have more experience
than we have had in the past.
Senior Lucas Lantrip is a four
year starter. Two other seniors,
Cory Lamey and Garrett Elpers
are back after their first varsity
year last year. The
junior group is
strong and
the
numbers
are
good.
When
is
the
first official
game?
We will open
up on March 25th at
Barr Reeve.
When
was
the first official
practice?
We officially started
practice
on
March 11th.
Are there
any games that
stick out as rivalry games or important games in the
season?
We
always
want to beat Princeton and North Posey. But
I like personally trying to
beat Jasper and Memorial.
What do you think
is the strong point of
the team this year?
I am really hoping our pitching will
be a strong point.
But we do have a lot
of players that can
play several positions and that
could
help
during the
season.
Softball wants a Sectional title
Alissa Luigs
Staff Writer
The Lady Titans have
began their 2013 season. The
ladies’ season opener against
Carmi High school was cancelled on Monday, March 18
due to rain. The Lady Titans’
next game will be hosted by
the Memorial Tigers. The ladies will travel to Memorial on
Monday, March 25.
The ladies graduated six
seniors last year in which all
had starting positions.
What are your
goals for the season?
For this season
and this team the
goal is to learn
and improve
to get better. As always we
wish to
have the
winning
season everyone hopes for.
A major goal that I
wish to accomplish
with this group of
girls is to win
the Sectional.
Another goal
is just to make
a good season out
of what we have.
When was the
first official practice?
Our first official practice
was held on Monday, March
4.
What do you think
is the strong point of this
team?
I think from a coach’s
view, my team gets along very
well. They really know how to
work together and keep each
other
motivated.
The
team is always
working
together
and
striving
for
the best.
Who are
your returning
seniors?
The Gib-
son
Southern softball team has a
total of four returning seniors
this year. These returning seniors include
• KaLee Rexing, our
catcher
• Halee Baehl, in the
outfield
• Sara White, in the outfield
• Kyleigh Fox, our second basemen
Are there any
changes to your
coaching staff?
This year there really
aren’t any changes to the
coaching staff. Returning
coaches include myself along
with
• Coach
Don
Rhodes
• Coach Jeff Matsel
• Coach Benny Jordan
• Coach Allie May
• Coach
Greg
Wilson
All of the coaches help a
lot with both jayvee and varsity teams and contribute to
the work and time that is put
into it. They also help with the
softball field itself. The first
home softball game is
April 1, versus Mater
Dei.

Relaxation technique with the
intent to hea l .
The Lady Titans are running striaght into their 2013
season. Head coach Jeremy
Aydt answered some questions
regarding the upcoming season.
How many track members do you have returning
this year?
There are 20 members returning from 2012.
How many girls do you
have total?
There are 37 girls total this
year on the team.
How many seniors do
you have returning this year?
There are four returning seniors.
Do you think the team
will be as successful as last
year? Why or why not?
Yes. I think we could be just as
successful or have more suc-
cess than last year. We have
some talented newcomers that
have joined the team. Some
of the newcomers produced
outstanding efforts last year in
middle school.
Do you have any individual expectations for any
seniors or any other members
on the team?
My expectations for all the athletes are to perform as well as
they can come meet day. With
hard work and dedication to
the program, Lady Titan Track
should be at its finest.
What are your overall
goals for the entire team?
I wish to continue our streak
of winning the Gibson County
Track and Field Championships, contend for PAC and
the Sectional, and advance as
many athletes as possible from
Sectional to Regional and from
Regional to State.

Who looks to be your
biggest rival?
The county and conference teams seem to always be
our biggest rivals. I wouldn’t
say any one team on our
schedule gets more attention
than another, but Southridge
and South Spencer will probably be favored in our conference tournament this year, so
it would be nice to challenge
those two teams.
When is your first official practice?
Our first practice was
Monday, March 11 at Cambridge.
How will this year’s
team differ from last year’s
team?
This year we return
three starters from last year’s
team and two other individuals that saw some time on varsity. Many of these guys are
still young even though they
got experience last year, so it
will be important for us to stay
hungry early in the year and
improve as individuals. We

team with nineteen
total golfers. I would
say that is the biggest
change from last year’s
nine man roster. Hopefully, a few new guys will challenge the returning players
and build a competitive environment around practice.
What do you expect from your players this
season?
My expectations for
our players will always be
to respect the game, represent your school with the
upmost respect, and to
come every day and give
this team 100 percent
of your effort. If we
do those things,
everything else
will fall into
place. ELBERFELD STATE BANK

March Madness is finally here
Alissa Luigs
Staff Writer
Have you spent time
thinking about who you think
will be in the Final Four? Have
you filled out your March Madness brackets? Well, if you
don’t, you better get on it because its time! As millions and
millions of March Madness fans
begin filling out their brackets,
teams are preparing themselves
for this event. According to
NCAA website statistics, March
Madness brought in about 176
million people to watch this
event in 2012. Will 2013 bring
in more viewers? Will more
people buy tickets to go watch
it up close and personal? Well
that’s this year’s plan. NCAA.
com will be providing a live
feed that can be viewed online
via a smart phone or tablet.
March Madness begins
on Tuesday, March 19 and ends
on April 8. The official bracket
was released on March 17.
Some say that March
Madness is bigger than the Superbowl. MSN survey showed
58 percent of workers will
participate in at least one betting pool this year. Las Vegas
casinos generate an estimated
$100 million in revenue from
the tournament.
Hot Yoga
Bikram yoga or “hot yoga” is a 90-minute program
that consists of a series of 26 postures at a temperature of 105 degrees. The postures require lengthy,
forceful and well-controlled contractions of all major
muscle groups. The demanding nature of the poses
and the heat are designed to raise your heart rate
and tire your muscles.
Cold Yoga
Yoga is a commonly known generic term for physical, mental, and spiritual disciplines which originated
in ancient India. Specifically, yoga is one of the six
schools of Hindu philosophy. One of the most detailed and thorough expositions on the subject are
the various traditions of yoga and are found in Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism and Sikhism.

Can you form yourself
into a human pretzel? If the
answer to this question is yes,
then your opportunity is finally
here. The 2013-2014 Gibson
Southern school year is debating on offering a yoga class for
students to participate in. As of
right now, health and PE teacher Jerry O’Brien is to be the
instructor. This class will be
considered an elective on the
Core 40 diploma. This course
will introduce the students to a
series of physical postures, as
well as practical methods for
relaxation, proper breathing,
meditation, and concentration to promote health. This
class will also help to alleviate
stress, improve skeletal alignment, and increase muscular
strength and flexibility.
The yoga class will be
combined with an aerobic
walking class. The objective
with this course will be to acquaint the students with fitness walking, power walking,
and race walking techniques.
Grades for these classes will be
calculated based on a walking
log, a walking form evaluation,
and a skills test. Skills will
be evaluated based on timed
walks. These timed walks will
include a 1-mile walk, a 1.5-
