With time comes change in athlete’s view of the new North

It’s no news that the sports at North High School aren’t the best, in fact some would say we are

the worst but what people don’t know is the amount of passion each person has for the sport they

play.

Sophomore Chrystal Seger knows this best, being a volleyball player at North High for two

years she has learned to look beyond the past and make a new future for North. She’s has learned

that she belongs most at North as she said, “I love how the community feels like a family, I hate

how people put down North for their sports, we really try and still don’t win but it’s not about

winning it’s about being a team”.

The North volleyball team has not won a game yet this year, but through all of

the fights, hard work, and tears, the volleyball team manages to stays together as ONE and

continues to fight to the finish. Whether they win or they lose they always finish strong.

These girls don’t just see each other as teammates but as “Family, Sisters, I love my girls” as Seger put it.

Unless you are part of the team or come and support, nobody really sees this part of the bears

den.

“People just see the scoreboard, they don’t look beyond the scoreboard.” Seger said.

Through it all, we all manage as a team even as a school to stay like a family. Remember it’s always a great day to be a polar bear.
