NEWS: Senior vs. Staff Volleyball Game: A Fundraiser for LLS

by: Kyrra Styczynski

As some of you may or may not know, every year Nazareth has a Senior vs Faculty game. This year's game is volleyball! The game will be on April 29th at 6 pm and will be held in the high school gym. We started this tradition in 2017 to commemorate the seniors and raise money for a good cause. All funds from this game will go to the foundation LLS, better known as the Leukemia Lymphoma Society.

Seniors can still sign up until April 8th, after which signups will open to underclassmen. To play in the game it costs 5 dollars. If you wish to sign up, go to Miss Greene in room 317. To come and watch the game it only costs 2 dollars. All staff, students, parents, and community members are welcome and encouraged to come to this event. The event colors are blue and white. Players will be wearing white shirts and the audience is welcome to wear their Nazareth pride colors along with them!

A special thank you goes to the Interact Club for continuing and founding this tradition, as well as Miss Greene for giving us all of the information on the event! News From the Nest will continue to follow this event until game night. A few surprise interviews from the staff and students playing will be hidden in the articles, so stay tuned. Good luck seniors! Good luck staff! And Go Blue Eagles!

On Friday, April 13, Nazareth Area High School Interact Club hosted the first annual Seniors vs. Teachers Basketball Game in the gymnasium.

The teacher team included eleven players led by teacher-coaches Mrs. Rakos and Mrs. Kreider-Davis. The student team had thirteen players led by student coaches: senior Zac Keifer, sophomore Anthony Harris, and junior Nick Simone.

Before the event started, we asked Mrs. Heimbach for her prediction on the game. She told us, “[The] faculty and staff are full of some real ballers; however, the senior team has incredible athletics. I think it’s going to be a very close game, and I think the teachers are gonna pull out the dub.”

Mrs. Heimbach was proven right, and the teachers ended up winning with a close score of 58-56.

The entrance fee was three dollars with the fees going towards the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. In total, the club was able to raise over $500 for LLS.
