(from left to right) Juniors Navya Cherukeru, Sanjeev Ranga and Pooja Pandey celebrate their first place victory during the DECA International Career Development Conference on May 2. DECA president Ansh Shukla credits the increase in first place wins to the change in the competitive training program. Instead of seeking out a veteran member to mentor them, new DECA members participate in classroom-like settings with an officer teaching basic concepts. “The work and support the officers gave really gave us that extra push,” Cherukeru said.

According to senior Chanel Zhan, the current structure of the bike racks is inconvenient for bikers. Some racks (above) are spaced out enough to allow a little space between the rear wheels of the bikes for students to walk through. Other racks (below) are too close, making the student lift their bike over the others. Photos by Christophe Haubursin.

Junior Hayley Chan puts the ball back into play after a Lincoln High School (11-5-0) defender kicked the ball out of bounds during their Feb. 21 CCS playoffs first round match. Despite passive play with one-touches and ineffective passing in the first half, the team was able to score in the first and prevent dangerous chances by Lincoln in the second half. The fifth-seed Matadors (11-4-6) won 1-0, and will play against fourth-seed Carlmont High School (12-3-5) in the quarterfinals on Feb. 25 at Terra Nova High School at 2p.m. Photo by Yaamini Venkataraman.
