Commitment is a very important tenet to a Jesuit student, and on October 28, 2011, the Jesuit cross-country team skipped out on Ranger Day so that they could fulfill their track duties. The running Rangers faced off against track teams from Skyline, Lake Highlands, Berkner, Sunset, W.T. White, and Richardson in the District Championship Cross Country meet. The cross-country...
Number one versus number two. Undefeated, bitter rivals. Division, conference, and national title implications on the line. There’s a reason that this Saturday’s matchup between top-ranked Louisiana State University and second-ranked University of Alabama is being billed the “Game of the Century,” a title specially reserved for regular season games between the two top ranked teams in college football.

Over the past few years, Jesuit’s homecoming games have been far from enjoyable for the team. In 2009, a mismatched Jesuit lost its homecoming game to Allen 55-14 under the lights at SMU’s Gerald J. Ford Stadium. Last year, Lake Highlands shocked the Rangers, squeaking out a 29-20 win in what was truly a “homecoming” for last year’s road...
The Jesuit swim team out-swam McKinney Boyd last Tuesday, October 18, 2011, winning the meet 113-70. This meet was a “dual meet,” a meet where two schools face off solely against each other.

For the very first time this year, the Rangers got on a bus at 4:45 and commuted over to Lake Highlands to play an...
Waking up at five in the morning is not the typical way for a Jesuit student to spend his normal Saturday, but on October 8, 2011, the Jesuit Cross Country Team hosted and competed in the Third Annual Jesuit Classic Invitational Meet. The cross country team, consisting of both varsity and junior varsity runners, arrived at Norbuck Park, located...
Last Tuesday, October 18, 2011, the Jesuit baseball team completed its fall season. While records are not officially kept, both varsity groups turned in solid performances and many of the seniors are seeking to take their talents to the next level. Last year, the phenomenal Josh Bell led the way for the Ranger baseball team en route to a...
If I told you that a certain Jesuit sport’s next game is between Midway Presents and Team Host, would you have any idea what I was talking about?
These two teams and many more play intramural indoor volleyball, one of Jesuit’s hottest intramural sports. “Indoor volleyball at Jesuit could be compared to the finest of Olympic sports,” reflects Joe Payne...
