How sophomores are going to enhance their junior year

Pierce Isaac and Ethan Haney

We interviewed 5 sophomores and asked them how they want to improve their junior year to their sophomore year. We had mixed responses between the 5 students, some responses were about sports, others were about academics, and one was simply getting to class in a more efficient way. Deng Deng want’s to stop procrastinating and help Judge Basketball win a championship. Benton Ross wants to improve his Golf scores, and he is “cracked at Lacrosse” so there is no need for improvement there. Vakroth Anderson want’s to improve his math skills and note taking. Zack Gordon wants to become a better fielder on the baseball diamond and he wants to find the most efficient way to the classroom. Henry Mackey wants to be more involved around the Judge community, and he wants to improve his approach to assignments and tests because “he usually just kind of wings it”. And last but certainly not least, Josh Hale want’s to achieve high honor roll every quarter, and want’s to get varsity minutes as a Middle Linebacker for the Bulldogs in the upcoming Fall season.
