Every 15 Minutes
Alexis Bowler Features Editor
It is said that every fifteen minutes someone dies from an alcohol-related accident. This statistic is sadly the truth. Innocent people everywhere around the world are dying because one person made the mistake of thinking they could drive while under the influence. The Every 15 Minutes Program is a great opportunity for students in high school to think twice about the choices they make on a regular basis. Senior brittanie Fairbanks states, I thought this was a really good program, it sends a good message to everyone. on April 11th, the Grim Reaper walked down the halls of Canyon Ridge and entered our classrooms every 15 minutes to collect the students that were randomly selected to die. The Twin Falls Police accompanied him with the dead students obituary, which had been written by their parents. Quiet faces and unheard whispers filled the halls this day. Passing each student one could easily tell what they were thinking. Cops went around the classrooms to discuss the consequences of driving drunk. Fairbanks also says, It was a very sad day, but weve all got to learn about the consequences of driving drunk and how it affects everyone around us. Not only is one taking the life of someone else, but they are also taking their own. They may not die, but they have to live each day of their existence knowing that they took the life of someone else. The next day seniors went to an hour long assembly that described the program, officers and civilians shared their stories about citizens and family members who had lost their lives due to drunk drivers. Looking around at the audience and seeing the faces that were made that day made it one to remember. Towards the end of the assembly the ones who were dead put together a skit that made an impression on everyone. It described the night of one of our fellow classmates who lost her life because she decided to get into a
car with a drunk driver. As the skit continued; she laid in her casket as the other dead ones read their goodbye letters. We all watched this skit, and imagined it to be real, tears rolled down the cheeks of our senior classmates. To picture the loss of someone close to our heart is horrendous, but to know they died because of a drunk driver is much worse. It is said that someone dies every fifteen minutes from an alcoholrelated accident, lets not be another statistic. Lets not get into a car with someone who has been drinking, and lastly lets not ruin the life of someone else, because we decided to drink and drive.
The Grim Reaper claims the beloved Sean Hughes as a victim of a drunk driving related accident.

pitching, rapping, and the list goes on. Allowing the ladies some time to prepare themselves, B.P.A. showed off its video of bullying. Teaching everyone about the three main types of bullying; verbal, physical and cyber, and how it affects people nowadays. Once again all the participants took the stage in their gowns. As each contestant entered they had to pick one question from two bags, one marked serious and the other marked silly. Laughs were heard as the silly questions were answered, and silence when the serious question was asked. The ladies exited the stage and it was time for the judges to tally their scores to figure out who the winners would be. This year the award of Ms. Talent went to Sydney Bergen, Ms. Personality went to Morgan Jones, Ms. Impromptu went to Sydney Bergen, Ms. Style went to Lauren Shotwell, second runner-up went Autumn Robinson, first runner-up went to Sydney Bergen, and 2012 first ever Ms. CRHS went to Lauren Shotwell. Every single canididate did amazing and should be proud!

On March 21, 2012, Student Elections took place. There were three different elections: junior class, senior class, and student body. The halls were covered in posters and flyers aimed to convince others to vote. The first election was junior class, where Student Body President Sydney Bergen and Vice President Lindsey Mancari were there introducing each candidate. The candidates showed how much they cared about running with their unique presentations, from Hailey Sandison and Emily Browns dancing flash mob, to Josh Clark and Blake Jensens singing in afros, this event was a fun experience to

black men created a protest group called the Black Panthers. They swore that they would take violent action if Zimmerman wasnt arrested. Trayvon Martins mother told the press that she thought her son was racially profiled and, Hunted down like a rabid dog. But as of April , George Zimmerman was arrested on account of 2nd degree murder. And it is now official that Zimmerman will face state charges. The Martin family and racial protest groups are relieved but now saying they cant believe Zimmerman hasnt been shot or sentenced to death yet. One can bet that this wont die down until after the court hearing. If he is found guilty, then everything will be over. But if he is found innocent, then this is only the beginning.
dealing with cancer in their lives. Although every relay is different there are some traditions that make up Relay for Life. The first is the Survivors Lap, in which cancer survivors and supporters circle around the track to celebrate defeating cancer. Next, is the Luminary Ceremony. When the sun sets, every person personalizes their own luminary. These lit candles and personalized messages are symbols to honor individual issues with cancer each person faces. The Fight Back Ceremony is the last and possibly, most important part of the relay. This time is a time when people can make personal commitments to help
fight cancer. This could include quitting smoking, donating money to the cause, or getting screening tests. This is a significant step in peoples lives and can ultimately change them forever. Taking on this event is Susan Dolecheck. She has personally been affected by cancer and has taken initiative to make sure our school can be involved. So far, the city of Twin Falls as a whole has raised a total of $79,610 for the cause and there are 633 participants. Relay for Life will begin on May 18th. Cancer affects everyone and together we can make an impact to turn lives around and create miracles.
With the Republican candidacy elections almost over with only 19 states left to run for delegates, Mitt Romney is the clear leader with Rick Santorum in second and Newt Gingrich and Ron Paul barely hanging on. As of right now, Mitt Romney has 684 delegates, Rick Santorum has 270 delegates, Newt Gingrich has 136 delegates and Ron Paul has 52 delegates. Santorum has had the best chance of winning against Romney but he had to suspend his campaign due to an illness his three year old daughter, Bella, has. Bella has a condition known as Triso-
my 18 or basically an extra eighteenth chromosome. Santorum suspended his campaign temporarily so he could be with her. If Santorum does not come back to running in the candidacy, then it is likely that Romney will win the last 19 states. However, if he does come back, then Santorum might still have a shot at winning with big delegate states like Texas, California, New York, and Pennsylvania. Pennsylvania is Santorums home state and would have a great chance of winning the 71 delegates. The Republican candidacy race has been very competitive thus far and time will tell how it will turn out.
manifesto that is based on how people usually discover their paths in life. So, what do you want to do with your life? You should be a lawyer, a doctor, an accountant, a consultant blah, blah, blah. Everywhere you turn people try to tell you who to be and what to do with your life. We call that The Noise. Block it. Shed it. Leave it for the conformists. As a generation, we need to get back to focusing on individuality. Selfconstruction rather than mass production. Define your own road in life instead of travelling down someone elses. Listen to yourself.

This means that with each contest, two pairs of tickets are given away, leaving thousands of people with nothing. I have never had to pay for a concert ticket, since I have had the opportunity of winning them. This is a great thing for one who loves the experience of watching their favorite bands perform, for free! My concerts have been in Blackfoot, Nampa, and Salt Lake City, so these concerts are not limited to when Idaho is lucky enough to have an artist visit and perform. The tickets I had received to Salt Lake City also included hotel gift certificates, which added on to the worth of this win, and didnt require me to put forth my own wallet. My most recent and favorite win was two tickets to the Mayhem Festival, in the summer of 2011. The Mayhem Festival included bands Godsmack, Megadeth, Disturbed, Machine Head, and many more. Along with already having two tickets to the concert festival, I also had won a ticket from Mayhem Festivals online site. So, in total I have won seven concert tickets, six being from our local radio stations. If anyone was ever skeptical about radio contests, they shouldnt be anymore. If I can win concert tickets, than why cant you?
Summer is just around the corner, and for most of us that means two things: finding a summer job or going on endless vacations. The most common summer jobs for teens fits into five categories: babysitting listed at number one, pet sitting or dog walking at number two, retail at number three, food service at number four, and camp counselor at number five. Babysitting is quite the responsibility, and usually suited for the more mature and responsible teens. When applying for a babysitting job, one is more likely to get the job with some sort of certification. There are courses offered through the Red Cross that focus on infant and child care, and problem solving skills needed in the possibility of an emergency.
Pet sitting or dog walking has a convenient schedule for those attending summer school, or have other priorities. The schedule is simple, usually early morning and late afternoon. Retail includes places such as JC Penny, Shopko, and Macys. Applying for retail is a little more competitive because it isnt just teens applying for these jobs. `Food service can be stressful, but it is one of the most common jobs for teens. The food industry is highly competitive and is always go, go, go. Working in the food industry may range from fast food to five star restaurants, all of which are usually open and accepting employees due to the high level of competition. Camp Counseling is for those who are great
with younger kids, and for those with patience and good problem solving skills. Camp counselors help get connected with the participants of the camp and should usually go through CPR and lifeguard training to be prepared for anything. Most of all, being a Camp Counselor usually means having a good time. All of these summer jobs are definitely not hard to apply for, there are many ways one can get involved or find a new job. Remember, come prepared to an interview, and have a resume ready to go. Make sure to dress nicely and be on top of ones game at all time. A good first impression is what will make one stand out from competition for a future employer and can earn you the job just by walking through the door looking sharp.
Book Reviews
Courtney Bertoni Staff Writer
Though the year is coming to a close, this is no reason to stop reading. Its time for a book review! These books are all on the top of New York Times Bestsellers list. At the top is Nicholas Sparks The Lucky One. This zappy love story has been at number one for 19 weeks. The book portrays the story of two young lovers, Logan an ex-marine and Beth a small town girl. While serving a tour in Afghanistan, Logan finds a picture of Beth buried in the rubble of an old building. He keeps the picture in belief that another marine has lost the picture and has hopes of returning it to its rightful owner, but when the picture goes unclaimed and Logan ends up surviving many different circumstances that he shouldve died in, he believes that the picture helped to save him. Logan sets out on finding Beth and personally thanking her for keeping him safe. As luck would have it, he does find her, and Sparks demonstrates the story of these two lucky lovers. Next up on the list is the fictional book The Affair. Lee Child begins this story in 1997. A military cop named Jack goes to Mississippi on a mysterious case. He must discover a possible scandal of a soldier and some bad
friends in Washington. The story will keep a person on the edge of their seat. If one likes mysteries and some military action, then make sure to pick up this book. Third down the list is George Martins A Game of Thrones. This book is the first one in the series called A Song of Ice and Fire. This sinister story tells the tales of supernatural forces in the frozen lands of Winterfall. The book has been on the list for a whopping 52 weeks and counting. Many are calling the tale a mustread. Better pick it up soon! These books are great reads. Keep your mind sharp for the end of this year and keep on that reading as much as possible every day.
Grand- Vu although not as large as the Motor-Vu plays just as much importance, the location may be a little out of the way for some, but the experience is the same nonetheless. This summer the drive INS will be doing something that they have never done before, to prepare for the new theater coming in, the drive INS will actually release new movies here. Movies will vary depending on popularity, and the cracks arent worked out just yet with what movies to open here, but even the possibility of this would excite any person. Yes, people want to have that movie theater experience, but the drive in experience is so much better. With drive INS a person can talk as loud as theyd like, use their
phone freely, and also be able to bring outside snacks without getting in trouble for it. The drive INS are always on the list of things to go to during the summer. Theyre convenient and are an enjoyable place to be at. Make sure to stop by this summer.
concept album, meaning it has a large story line behind it. Listening closely to the lyrics, the audience is told an epic. Josh Ramsay is not only a phenomenal song writer, but becomes a powerful author when writing his lyrics, and shows that music is in his DNA. What Ramsay has written in Ever After tells of the heartless Queen Carolina, the exiled King, and the stolen heart of the Kings daughter Porcelain. Queen Carolina is an evil woman, who creates toys to steal hearts of others. And the man, Josh Ramsay, is on a mission to find the heartless princess Porcelain, who is able to return him home. The story is definitely vague within the album, and any occasional listener will not pick up the story line. Those who pay attention to the lyrics will see there is more to the album. The first and last lyrics of Ever After are even, Once upon a time, and Happy ever we lived, the end, which gives more of the story feel to it. Havent Had Enough was nominated for Song of the Year on Alternative Addiction.com, and won Independent Music Awards Video of the Year. Marianas Trench has also had many other nominations and awards in recognition of their talent. Havent Had Enough has also reached #1 on Canadas iTunes download chart. So go ahead and hop along on your iTunes account and purchase this incredibly glorious album. Feel free to even get on MY iTunes account and purchase Ever After, or go to their online store and have the CD shipped from Canada, everyone loves Canadian merchandise. Marianas Trench is becoming more well-known with each album they put off, so get in on the music!

Summer, the time of year where the air is filled with fresh cut grass, flowers, and the sound of chirping birds. The students and teachers of Canyon Ridge High School are all excited for summer. From planning trips to just wanting school to be over everyone is counting down the days! There are many activities that students are looking forward to such as, hanging with friends, swimming, boating, long boarding,
is amazing at all times of the day. Plus with glasses it makes a person just look and feel smarter, when in actuality all that it means is that you have poor vision, contrary to belief, not all nerds wear glasses. Glasses do have their drawbacks though, they constantly get smudges or dirty so youll have to take them off every so often to clean them. Also, glasses are very easy to lose if you just take them off for a second, so be sure to keep them in your impaired sight. However, if you cant stand having frames blocking your vision every now and then, contacts are the way to go. Just like glasses, contacts are now making it possible for people to express themselves better, making it to where you can get colored contacts. The colored contacts also come in array of colors such as multicolored and even cat looking eyes. Contacts also allow a person to conceal the fact that they have bad vision. Just like glasses, contacts are also bothersome. Remembering to take them out every night before bed and making sure to not fall asleep with them in. Hav-
ing to poke yourself in the eye every time you want to take out or put in contacts, and also trying to make sure that one or both doesnt accidentally pop out. Contacts and glasses both have their drawbacks and their high points. Its more of what a person prefers. If you cant stand contacts then shoot for glasses, and if having glasses is too bothersome then by all means reach for the contacts. Its strictly a matter of opinion and what each individual wants out of their eyeware. There is no question that every person can make that decision on their own.
Zuercher and Lance are showing the differences between glasses and contacts. Showing that every person has a preference for something different.

Gemini (May 21 - Jun. 20)
Youre likely to come across a change in plans or some unexpected news this summer. Youre usually sensitive and calm in situations like this.
Dont let internal insecurities ruin your fun-filled summer. Throw on your bathing suit and dive in! Letting emotions take control will only take away the excitement and joy .
Youre not quite sure what future plans will bring or what you truly want, but you have time! This summer just enjoy time with friends and family.
Enjoy your freedom over the break! Take advantage of your wild side no matter where it takes you. You could end up in a place you needed to be in all along.
Your imagination is going to run wild this summer. You and your friends will have no problem thinking up creative plans to keep you entertained.
Youre intellectual and spiritual side will come out this summer when an opportunity comes up to talk to like-minded people.
Youll do a lot of emotional and mental growing over this summer vacation. This will be a very good thing for you and your loved ones around you.
This summer break will bring you in touch with someone new who will teach you a lot about life and will help you with your future plans.
This summer would be a great time to look for a job. Not only will it bring more money in, but it could be a great way to learn responsibility.
With your aquatic personality, youll probably be swimming all summer. While summer break is the time to be free and have a ton of fun, do not procrastinate.

Okay first, if this dudes JOB is to drive trucks I would HOPE he isnt depending on a bunch of teens to figure out the incline! I would hope he knows what 8 degrees means or that guy needs to pull over and radio back cause aint no way hes making it to where hes going! He would get so lost if we had to help. Well OBVIOUSLY the incline is -32% Wait nouuuhhhhhh.186%? No5? I dont know. Lets go with 5! Lets at least try to get competent math problems like, Jared owes Sean $42.

and not get to see her. Hearing the officer say aloud the obituary was not easy, and to hold my composure was no simple task. It felt like I actually died in that moment, I was whisked away from my classmates and told that I could no longer speak to them. Friends that I longed to talk to would be ignored all day, and I could tell that it wasnt easy for them to pretend that I actually was gone. When the day was over I was not able to go home to my family, I was not allowed to call my mom and tell her that I was okay and would be home soon, and the reality and the gravity of this weighed heavily on my mind, because I knew that she was upset. There have been times when Ive gone out of town and not seen my mom, but Ive always had my cell phone to keep in contact with her and not hearing her voice or seeing her face was a very low point in my life. Your mom is your support system, and not being able to lean on her when I needed her made me feel very secluded and extremely alone. You do not realize the impact that you have on people, until they actually feel like you are gone. The experience was an eye opener and when it was finally over I realized that I have much more to do here before I die, and by choosing not to drink and drive, I am showing others that I want to live my life.
Every once in a century a cookie recipe is born that is so scrumptiously delicious, so heartwarmingly good looking, and so dearly loved by the human population of earth that it goes down in the famous book of The Best Cookie Recipes Ever. I am here today to share the names of the cookies that have made it into this prestigious book and some of their deepest secrets. First, starting off with the Big Fat Chewy Chocolate Chip Cookie submitted online at allrecipes.com by Elizabeth. It is really quite a simple cookie to construct. All one needs is 2 cups allpurpose flour, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, 1/2 teaspoon salt, 3/4 cup unsalted butter, melted, 1 cup packed brown sugar, 1/2 cup white sugar,1 tablespoon vanilla extract, 1 egg,1 egg yolk, and 2 cups semisweet chocolate chips. First whip the wet ingredients and dry ingredients separately, and then combine them together. Then bake them in the oven for 15-17 minutes at 325 Degrees F.
The deep and dirty secret on these cookies, it really doesnt matter how long you cook them. However you like them is however you can cook and eat them. The second famous cookie that has made it into this prestigious book is the famed Peanut Butter Cookie. This recipe was submitted online at allrecipes.com by BAKINGNUTS. This renowned cookie is also relatively easy to make. All the ingredients one needs to make these fabulous cookies are 2 cups peanut butter, 2 cups white sugar, 2 eggs, 2 teaspoons baking soda, 1 pinch salt, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. To start, preheat the oven to 350 degrees F, and then mix all of the ingredients together very well. Next roll the dough into 1 inch balls and space them about two inches apart on the cookie sheet. The final two steps include smashing the wellknown criss-crosses into the cookies with a fork and then leaving them in the oven to cook for anywhere between eight and ten minutes. The final cookie to squeak into The Best Cookie
Recipes Ever is the renowned Big Soft Ginger Cookie sent in by Amy on allrecipes.com. The key ingredients for this cookie are 2 1/4 cups allpurpose flour, 2 teaspoons ground ginger, 1 teaspoon baking soda, 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/2 teaspoon ground cloves, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 3/4 cup margarine, softened, 1 cup white sugar, 1 egg, 1 tablespoon water, 1/4 cup molasses, and 2 tablespoons white sugar. First start out by mixing together all of the dry ingredients in one bowl and all of the wet ingredients into another. Make sure that you whip the wet ingredients until they are nice and fluffy. After this is done go on ahead and throw the dry ingredients in with the wet ones. Roll the dough into little balls and sprinkle them in sugar. Slightly squash the balls onto the cookie sheet and bake them in the oven on 350 degrees for 8-10 minutes. And this cookie wraps up the last and final cookie to make it into the book, The Best Cookie Recipes Ever.
life and how to not take anyone for granted. I also got the chance to bond with some other senior classmates, and this was an experience I will never forget. Joining activities in high school helps one get to know more people and gradually grow as a person. Senior Daniel Huey says, I enjoyed playing for the Canyon Ridge basketball team because I loved representing my school, and plus I met a lot of cool people who became my friends. Seniors may never forget the people that they have met and the teams they joined. Although senior year is nearing to an end this is not a time to be sad. This is a time to look back on the memories weve made, the people weve met, and the moments well hold in our hearts forever, and in the end well smile. Senior year will be chersihed and we will always look back and be thankful for all the amazing memories.
Every year a handful of seniors are chosen for the every fifteen minutes program, where they must walk around in cloaks, not speak to any peers, and not participate in class discussions. What though is the real purpose of this program? It is designed to educate and show students that we are not an exception to becoming a victim to a drunk driver. Yes, many people pointed and laughed and said I see dead people but living in that moment, the experience is completely different. Every year people are saying that they want to be chosen for this program, and while it is a privilege to be chosen, it is something that will take a toll on a person. As some who experienced it first hand, let me tell you, its not all fun and games and the program should be taken a lot more seriously than it is. This program was designed to show teens and everyone else, that because of careless actions, every fifteen minutes an innocent person loses their life to an alcohol related traffic accident. On April 11, 2012, I had to hear an officer read aloud to the class my obituary, something that my mom struggled to write. Having to tell the world that her little girl had been victim to a drunk driver and now has to wake up every day
Gabe Hernandez is disappointed that his senior memories are ending, but he is glad to graduate.
Summer is almost here and that means sun, fun, and vacation time! So what are some good places to go on vacation? There are of course those totally outrageous vacation spots like Paris, Rome, Venice, Fiji, the Caribbean, etc. But for teenagers, we cant afford to go on a trip to another country. So here are the top five vacation spots for teens. These spots arent very exotic but they are cheap and definitely worth the trip! 5. Y e l l o w s t o n e National Park- Yellowstone National Park is the worlds first national park and also the largest in the United States. The park is famous for geysers, hot springs, canyons, forests, wilderness, wildlife and a large lake. Due to the diversity of features, your list of activities will be endless, including kayaking, fishing, hiking and watching bison, moose and elk wander close by. 4. Lake TahoeStarting in Nevada and spilling over into California, Lake Tahoe is secluded, beautiful, full of wildlife, and there are lots of fun outdoor activities to participate in. One can hike, bike, swim, kayak, boat, golf, and ski (in the winter of course). 3. Camping in the Mountains- Whats better than laying in a sleeping bag looking up at the stars? Taking your familys 4-wheelers or dirt bikes with you can rip through the trees and have a blast! Fishing, hiking, swimming, kayaking, boating, and roasting marshmallows are all part of the camping
experience! 2. The Oregon CoastThe Oregon Coast is the best way to get your beach fix without spending all of your life savings. The Oregon coast offers wildlife, beauty, seclusion and big city life, and amazing seafood! You can fish, swim, boat, relax, tan, or go experience the big city! 1. Colorado- Yes, Colorado is a broad and general area. But Colorado provides lots of great opportunities for teens! If you want the big city, Denver is for you! But if you want a quiet getaway, Colorado can provide you that as well. While in Colorado, you can whitewater raft, zip line, kayaking, biking, hiking, camping, wildlife, and basically everything combined!
Yellowstone National Park has many beautiful sites. One of the most fantastic views is of Old Faithful; which is constantly evolving. It is one of the most popular sites to see at Yellowstone.

International Week
Sara Buddecke Advertising Coordinator
Recently at Canyon Ridge, we celebrated our rich culture and diversity with our very first International Week! All of Canyon Ridges international students put together food, dances, teams, and skits to show their life and what they do that defines their culture. And after we said the Pledge of Allegiance, each day, a new student came on the intercom and said it in their own language. Then during 4th period, a long table was set up outside of the library and the international students gave their peers foods from their countries. There was Nepali food, Mexican food, Asian food, Chinese food, Thai food, and of course, American food. On Wednesday, Canyon Ridge students formed teams and had a soccer tournament. The Nepali team The best team ever. Then during the school day students could walk around and see all the colorful and unique outfits being worn by other kids. Although each day was fun, Friday had to be the most exciting day of International Week. On Friday, we had an assembly where our international students put on a sort of talent show. They danced traditional dances and sang songs. Some kids put on a group dance to show how they danced and had fun in their home countries. Some kids played instruments, some sang, lots danced, and we had Lok Mohara as our new MC. As the assembly goes on, many realized it is truly an amazing thing that we have such diversity in our school. And it turns out that our first ever International Week was a huge success!

pursue it and in order to be that, I needed to be a coach and a teacher, because I love to teach just as much as I do coaching, said Mrs. Holloway. Throughout college and her present life, her hobbies have been running, golfing, basketball, chess and playing cards. She believes that theyre all extremely challenging games and that they make you think ahead constantly. Mrs. Holloway reflects some of her memories back in high school where she remembers winning the 800 meter in Track and Field, and being in the state championships; standing on the top podium with 1,000s of fans cheering for her! In fact, to this day she still holds records at BHS in the 800 meter, polevault, and a few relays. In college, she remembers a huge convention and presentation for sports in Oregon, where she was recognized as one of the top five Small College Athletes of the Year! One of her favorite inspirational quotes that she truly lives by was once said by Steve Prefontaine, To give anything less than your best is to sacrifice the gift.
As a teacher and coach, the best advice Holloway has to offer for students is, eliminate distraction and negative influences, set goals, and strive for what you want. For example, she started the FCA (Fellowship of Christian Athletes), here at Canyon Ridge High School. FCA is a club where anybody and everyone can meet every Thursday where a different pastor will visit and speak every week. Three and a half years ago, Leah Moore became Mrs. Leah Holloway when she married Uriah Holloway. She is happily married and is expecting her first child on September 18th!
wish it could be further away because I love high school. Said Jesse Andrus as he reminisces the fun times he had during these past four years. Jesses favorite memory from over the past few years was going to a Papa Roach concert with Nick Kytle, senior. And although Jesse at the time had been in a wheel chair he definitely made the best of it with doing wheelies and pushing himself down a few steps. My favorite memory of this year is being in Mr. CRHS! Jesse said. Andrus also stated that its not too stressful for him yet this year because hes on track to graduate and talks about where he plans on going next. I plan on going to CSI for two years then to Utah State University for the following two years to study physical therapy. Jesse also added some advice, Dont let senioritis
get the best of you, sit back and enjoy it as much as you can because it will be over before you know it!
Jesse Andrus, senior, being the fun and crazy guy that he is.

It is now May, which means that tennis is coming to end. Aw, how sad. This year has been a great one, and tennis players have improved from previous years. Various seniors on the team have had the opportunity to see their selves evolve as tennis players from their sophomore year, such as Chase Petty, Kyla Rogers, Mckenzi Baggett, and Staci Baird. These four seniors have been playing tennis all their years at Canyon Ridge, and set the bar high for future players to come. These four players have definitely helped shape the tennis team, and they have always had the advantage over first year players. The other seniors on Canyon Ridges tennis team include Creighton Adams, Victoria Arritt, Sydney Bergen, Jared Berry, Neil Kauppila,

For the AL Central, the Detroit Tigers still have their Cy Young award winner, Justin Verlander, and with the addition of Prince Fielder, they look to be even better this year. The Tigers will win this division. Also in the AL West, the Los Angeles Angels and the Texas Rangers will be having an all out brawl for winning the division. However, the Rangers were number one in batting average last year and have made the World Series two years in a row. So for that reason, the Rangers will be the most likely team to win this division. Then in the NL East, the Philadelphia Phillies are the dominant team here. They have all-star pitching with Roy Halladay, Cliff Lee, and Cole Hamels. If Ryan Howard and Chase Utley can get healthy again, they are sure to win this division easily.
In the NL Central, the Milwaukee Brewers have the reigning NL MVP in Ryan Braun but they lost a key player with Prince Fielder. For this, the World Series champs the St. Louis Cardinals will probably win this division. Finally, in the NL West, the Arizona Diamondbacks came out of nowhere last year and had a very good season and even made it into the playoffs. They will be even better this year and will win this division. Cody Gates, junior, says Yankees are the best. They are definitely winning the pennant this year. This year is going to be very competitive and hopefully full of home runs. People from all over will be rooting on their favorite teams as they hope for a World Series victory.
