Young soccer team
defies expectations
In the end it came down to penalty kicks.
The boys’ soccer season stormed through
the regular season with a 16-1-1 record
and through the district and regional
tournaments to advance to the Class 2A
State Final Four on Feb. 11 at Melbourne’s
Eastern Florida State College’s field.
The boys battled Jacksonville Bolles and
the elements to a scoreless tie at the half.
“It felt like we were playing against 12 men
in the first half but we were able to sustain it,
and we knew that we would have the wind
at our back for the second half,” Coach
Robert Robidoux said.
Senior Darshan Ghayal, who was on
the 2012 state championship team,
“I could’ve run concurred.
“I’m proud of how far we came
for miles.”
knowing that we had such a young

expectations of how far we were
going to go,” Ghayal said.
Junior Robert Madden summed the
season up.
“I think there’s no difference between
this team and the last state championship
team,” he said. “We all play with a lot of
heart and pick each other up just like the
last state championship team.”

Adding on toppings, seventh-grader Zoe Boyer and eighth-grader
Jacquelyn Mateosky deck out their sundaes.”I enjoyed putting various
toppings on my sundae as we were rewarded for successful fund-raising,”
Mateosky said. “Despite the weather, I still was happy.” With excitement,
seventh-grader Bekah Crews indulges in her ice cream. “For chorus, we
did a fund-raiser and my class had the most income per student from it, so
Ms. [Amy] Davis said she would reward us with ice-cream,” Crews said. “I
thought it was really nice to win since it made the fund-raising worthwhile.
However, it was chilly outside so eating ice-cream made me even more cold.”
After a long week of school, freshman
Sophia Pietrzak enjoys the 6 free Krisy
Kreme doughnuts she earned with her
report card. Krispy Kreme has a promotion
that gives students up to 6 free doughnuts,
one per grade letter “A” on their report
cards, to encourage them to do well in
school. “The donuts are delicious and
are usually hot right when we come in. It’s
a tradition to go with my friends now,”
Pietrzak said. “That’s what makes it so
special.”

Planning out their lab, seniors Patrick Schroeder and
Christopher Peterson compare the differences in their
planes. The lab took place in Maria Hedrick’s Statistics
class to determine the differences between different
model paper airplanes.“It was just fun to see how mine
dismally failed, and Chris’s went like 40 feet,” Schroeder
said. “I didn’t understand why. Mine didn’t go anywhere
because it was windy that day. It wasn’t my fault in any
way, it couldn’t have been my plane.” Launching
their airplanes, senior Selina Arends and sophomore
Juan Rodriguez test their models. “I thought it was
really fun,” Arends said. “It was a great excuse to not
do the regular textbook work.” With concentration,
senior Ashley Pekmezian prepares to throw her plane.
“I have lots of experience building paper airplanes so
I knew more than one design,” Pekmezian said. “We
varied the shape of the wings just because that’s a
common alteration in real world airplanes, so it had
more of an application to real life. It was fun because a
lot of our stuff in Statistics is just reading problems, but
this was hands-on.” Supporting his partner, senior
Joseph Along watches senior Kha Duong launch his
model.“There’s a ton of different ways to make paper
planes. We made two different ones and we tested to
see if there was a difference between how far each plane
flew,” Along said. “We made very complex and intricate
designs hoping to get some distance with our planes but
it failed miserably,”Duong said. “We ended up getting
negative distance, so that’s bad.”
Following the penalty kicks that won the regional final game, senior Noah Quinonez, freshman
Michael Murren, senior Darshan Ghayal, and sophomore Matthew Moscrip race onto the field.
“It was great,” Moscrip said. “We should have won the game without going into PK’s, I think.
But we won with PK’s and it was awesome. I could’ve run for miles.” Greeting the fans after the
game, senior Sam Kundrat high-fives classmate, senior Claire Rauchfuss. Cheering from the
stands, freshmen Erik Dearmin, Noah Carro, Joseph Luisi, and Austin Howard support the
team. Heading the ball away from his opponent, junior Robert Madden gets an edge on East
Side Preparatory team in the Regional finals. “I think it was a huge success,” Madden said. “We
were district champions, regional champions, and we slowly bonded together like a family. By the
end we were like brothers.” Rising to his feet, senior Jonathan Wakim screams with spirit. “I’m
the leader of the student section. My job is to get everybody hyped,” Wakim said.
