Last night, in James Logan's Dan Oden Swim Comples, the Lady Colts took on the water polo team from Mission San Jose, hoping to bolster its bid for its first Mission Valley Athletic League title. Instead, they fell to the Warriors by two goals.

Before the game, Colts Coach Martin Munoz said, "James Logan is off to its best start in the 16 year history of the water polo program. James Logan has never won a Girls Water Polo league title and today’s game vs. Mission San Jose could put us in the driver's seat for the crown. "

Members of the James Logan Choir, steamed after learning that their annual Spring Concert is scheduled June 1, the same Friday night as the Senior Ball, took their complaints to the Senior Class meeting Wednesday.

On Monday, the seniors of James Logan learned about the activities planned for their final year.

The Spring concert has been planned around that time of the year for about 13 years. Last year, the choir director, Erin McShane, set a date that wouldn't conflict with any of the school dances at Logan.

Dozens of students Tuesday donated something precious to them — their own blood — to help people who need it even more.

Every year, sometimes even twice a year, James Logan is visited by the American Red Cross and their team of phlebotomists, surveyors, food givers, and equipment. The blood drive is usually held in the Guy Emmanuel Gym, but this year the October 4 blood drive was conducted in the the old band room.
