Every year I’ve attended James Logan High and for a time before that, the Electronic Media Production program has provided James Logan students with an entertaining and informative morning television program called Logan Live. Its purpose? To give the daily announcements in a creative manner and to show students bits and pieces of the various functions at school.

Unfortunately, Logan Live has come to face a conflict between serving their audience and serving themselves. The result is a surplus of jokes and gags that divert attention from the news.

The Girls Soccer team and American dueled to a 0-0 conclusion on Thursday night in Fremont.

This proved to be one of the more, if not the most, physical games the Colts have been involved in.

The game appeared to be dominated by American for a better portion of the contest. They displayed an aerial long ball tactic and Logan’s main tactic was playing possession ball by move the ball up the field. Both team’s efforts proved to be futile as this game was a matchup of the midfielders. But nevertheless, American did indeed control the game.

From wikipedia:
John Greenleaf Whittier (December 17, 1807 – September 7, 1892) was an American Quaker poet and forceful advocate of the abolition of slavery in the United States.

He was born to John and Abigail (Hussey) at the rural homestead in Haverhill, Massachusetts on December 17, 1807. He grew up on the farm in a household with his parents, a brother and two sisters, a maternal aunt and paternal uncle, and a constant flow of visitors and hired hands for the farm. During the winter term, he attended the district school, and was first introduced to poetry by a teacher.
