Last weekend, January 15th and 16th, 32 Jesuit track athletes competed at the University of Arkansas invitational track meet. This was the track team’s first meet of the season, and the performances by our dedicated athletes show that there are great things ahead.

Well, I think we can all agree that firstly I am definitely not an NFL scout and secondly the art of scouting quarterbacks, even for professionals, is like trying to see when the digits of pi repeat. This is obviously a failed science and who knows; in three years we may be talking about how great Nathan Enderle is (he...
Friday night marked the second annual Gold Out in Jesuit’s Gym. Five hundred “sixth man” t-shirts were passed out as the Rangers played in front of their largest crowd of the year. Jesuit played host to the Wildcats of Lake Highlands, needing a win to catch Lake Highlands in the district standings. It was a slow start for the...

Ravens @ Steelers
Matchup
When Baltimore and Pittsburgh play, we usually know one thing: it’s going to be a tough-nosed, defensive battle. In the two games they played each other in the...
Saints @ Seahawks
Matchup
The defending champion New Orleans Saints travel to Seattle this Saturday to take on the Seahawks, who, with a 7-9 record, are the worst team ever to host a playoff game. The Seahawks only made the playoffs because they won their weak division, the NFC West, by beating the Sam Bradford and the St. Louis Rams in the...
