These were the words used to describe Jesuit's recent play, A Few Good Men, by Jesuit's Theater Director Mr. Chris Patterson. The play, as described by a previous piece by newly...
"I'm just glad that I'm able to compete at state, and that I can enjoy what I've earned so far this season. I may be there alone but I know I run with my friends family, and God who are always there for me." - Henry Beckman, a Varsity Cross Country and Team Captain competing at the State of...
