Practicing from 6:00 to 7:30 in the morning, the Jesuit swim team commits to their sport quite seriously. In fact, this year's season, at this point, has been noteworthy. The team, gaining eight new freshmen this year, has scored big in brotherhood and growth. Freshman Jack Ayres described the season as "amazing," mentioning that "it's been a fun season , and...
     Although most of the Jesuit community is struggling through Midterms and anticipating the long Christmas break filled with rest, holiday spirit, and joyous memories, let us take a step back to Thanksgiving, a holiday that brings to mind cooler weather, roasted turkey and pumpkin pie, but most of all spending time with family.

Match after match, opponent after opponent, both continue to dominate the competition until, eventually, they're crowned champions of their respective divisions, winning the tournament and taking home two 1st place trophies in JV for Jesuit. The wrestling team participated...
