High school sees change in staff By Anthony Carrillo


As the 2017-18 school year approached, St. Lou-is High School made a few staff changes. In the office, Mr. Koczenasz moved to the middle school over the summer, after working in the high school for the past 2016-17 school year.

Adding to that, Mrs. March came from working in the middle school of-

fice, to the high school’s. She then commented on the transition from middle school to high school say-ing, “I don’t have to help people with their lockers, and I also get to order lunches for students. The similar things are that the staff makes me feel wel-come and at home.”

Mr. Miller, who graduat-ed from St. Louis High School in 2008, is teach-ing Study Skills, Lan-

guage Arts, and helping with Mr. Morey’s first hour Algebra class.

He said, "After being away for almost ten years, having the chance to come back to SLHS has remind-ed how awesome it is to be a Shark.”

Mr. Maxwell, also known as Coach Maxwell, joined the high staff to help kids with guidance through the school year.

Frankenmuth course proves tough

XC with strong showing in

first TVC race in Saginaw By Brittney Roberson

Sharks Scene Staff Writer

Both cross country teams competed in their first TVC race Sept. 12, at Imerman park in Sagi-naw. The guys finished second right behind Itha-ca. Coming in fourth for the boys was Cologio Alighire with a time 18:22 with Austyn Rhines fin-ishing sixth at 18:31.

Jeffery Blackwell came in eighth with a time of 18:43. According to Alighire, “I felt I ran very well for the amount of competition. There was-n’t very many teams so there wasn’t anyone to run with.”

On the girls side, they finished fourth against six teams. Brooklyn Filipiak finished fourth at 22:32,

Zoe Dickman came ran a 24:20 finishing 14th and Brittney Roberson fin-ished 17th with a time of 24:37. The weather was humid and hotter than last week so runners struggled with the weather change. Cameron Murphy said, “It was so hot, I passed out. Other than that though, the meet went very well.”

Hot meet equals hot feet By Keegan Honig


The St. Louis cross country team ran a hot meet on Friday, Sep. 15, at the MSU Spartan Invi-tational in Lansing. The Sharks ran in the Division three and four races at the competition. The boys’ and girls’ Varsity teams and boys’ JV team ran, but there was no girls’ JV team at this meet. The boys’ Varsity took 11th place out of 35 teams, while the girls’ Varsity placed 25th out of 34. Taryn Mroczek said, “It was a really hot day and I think that really took a toll on all of us.”

The Sharks’ top Varsity boy was Cologio Alighire, who dominated the course despite the heat, and ran a time of 18:08.0 while tak-ing 33rd place. Next was Austyn Rhines (18:14.4)

in 37th place and Dakota Courter (19:12.9) in 78th.

The Varsity girls also ran well this meet. Brook-lyn Filipak came to com-pete with a time of 22:21.9, being fast enough to earn her 38th place. Next was Zoe Dickman (24:34.1) in 108th and Brittney Roberson (24:54.6), who came in at 119th place. The JV boys took 38th place out of 44 teams in their race. Their first runner was Austin Aldrich (22:21.5), who placed 300th, and the sec-ond runner, Alex Davis (22:22.2), was less than a second behind Austin and took 302nd place. Junior Joe Nash stated, “I think we ran pretty well for be-ing one of hundreds of schools there.” St. Louis will be back in action at the Al Kayner Delta Invi-tational Saturday, Sept. 23.

St. Louis girls golf competed in the Patriot Cup in Frankenmuth Sept. 11, 2017, and a TVC Jambo-ree Sept. 13, 2017. In Frankenmuth Monday, they took 12th out of 20 teams.

Leading the squad was Modestie Hitchcock with a 96 on 18 holes. The following Wednesday, the La-dy Sharks competed at the TVC Jamboree in Valley Lutheran fin-ishing 2nd.

The top golfers at the meet were Hitchcock and Allison Taipalus ty-ing for third with a 50, a 48 for Olivia Anderson, and Alexis Beeson shot a personal best of 43.

The team scored a 191 putting the girls 20 strokes behind shepherd.

Starr Hansen said, “Do I feel con-fident about winning the TVC con-ference? No, not after this week. As a team we haven't been taking things seriously and we are plenty of strokes behind Shepherd. With hardly any TVC outings left, it will be very hard to catch back up to them. Otherwise, I am 100% confi-dent that we are going to make it to state this year and my teammates feel the same way. We have been working hard and that has been our number one goal this season.”

Volleyball continues to dominate

JV volleyball looks to improve By Mackenzie Strong


The JV volleyball team play against Pinconning Sept. 13, in Pinconning. The Sharks lost both games 18-25 and 21-25. “We didn’t use much communication so we did-n’t play as good as we should” says Alexandra Pawlitz.

“I look forward to the tournament Saturday. Hopefully, we will im-prove,” says Chloe O’boyle.

“I believe that we played our hardest last weekend but in the end we lost. We are proud of what we ac-

complished,” said Natalia Garza

The JV volleyball team also played in an Alma invitational Sept. 16, in Alma. The team finished third losing the semi finals “I was surprised when we won against the number one team and we played great,” says Jenny Brown.

“ We played rough but now we know to try hard-er next time” said Kassi-dy Acker.

The team showed great improvement and the team will be back in action Wednesday at Saint Louis high school.

Varsity Sharks triumph over Dawgs

JV Sharks go beast mode on STC By Jake Davis


The JV football team

took on the Bulldawgs

from St. Charles Thurs-

day, Sept. 14. Improve-

ments had to be made

from last week as they

took a devastating loss to

Ithaca. The first quarter

was back and forth with

the Sharks and Dawgs ex-

changing punts. During

the second quarter, the

Sharks put the first points

on the board but couldn’t

contain on the kickoff and

allowed St. Charles to run

it back for a touchdown.

After that, St. Charles

couldn’t stop the JV of-

fense as they dominated

for the rest of the game

and only allowed touch-

downs on deep passes,

which kept the Dawgs in

the game. The final score

of the game was 53-30.

Jordan Lowe said, “It was

nice playing together as a

team again after our loss

to Ithaca. We played for

each other which allowed

us to put up a lot of points

on the board.”

Trae Garcia agreed with

Lowe, saying, “After they

scored on us, we wouldn’t

put our heads down. We

lifted each other back up

and did everything we

could to answer back on

offense.” Garcia was the

offensive star of the game,

rushing for over 100 yards

with a handful of touch-

downs. The JV team will

continue this road stretch

for another week, playing

Thursday at Michigan Lu-

theran Seminary.

The Saint Louis Varsity football team was back in action this past Friday at Wheeler Field as they took on the Bulldawgs of Saint Charles.

The bad blood that flows between these two teams has turned this game into somewhat of a rivalry in the past few years. It surely showed Friday as both teams battled for the rights to the red and black colors.

The Sharks struck first with Sen-ior Running Back Dylan Weller plunging into the end zone to cap off a 63 yard drive. However, the Bulldawg offense responded early in the second quarter with a seven-yard touchdown pass to bring the game within a point.

Senior Dylan Weller would come through again for the Sharks later in the second quarter with a one yard touchdown run to give the Sharks a 14-6 lead. Saint Charles was able to find the end zone once again, this

time on a trick play, to even up the score at 14-14 just before half time.

The Saint Louis defense was in lockdown from this point on as Saint Charles would fail to see the red zone again. The struggling Shark offense managed to produce a six-yard touchdown run by Junior Marcus Long late in the third quar-ter. This would turn out to be the

score that iced the game as Saint Louis went on to win 21-14.

The defensive play of Saint Louis was a major factor in this win. The Sharks were able to force three turnovers including two fum-bles and one interception.

Senior Jake Davis was credited with one fumble recovery and the one interception along with 8 total tackles. Senior Jayce Kuehnlein lead the team with 14 tackles and one sack. When asked what his thoughts were on his dominant de-fensive play he responded by say-ing, “I felt like I was in the right place at the right time.” He credits this to the defensive scheme that the coaches had set up for the game.

On the offensive side of the ball, Senior Dylan Weller had 113 rush-ing yards and two touchdowns.

The Varsity Football team plays again this Friday at Wheeler Field versus Michigan Lutheran Semi-nary at 7:00.

SLHS homecoming

By Cologio Alighire


Spirit week is a Monday to Friday event that many of our high school stu-dents participate, and dress up in an array differ-ent wacky outfits each day. For example, last

year's spirit week fea-tured: 70s day, jocks vs nerds, superhero day, camouflage vs fake an in-jury, and the signature black and red Friday. A large majority of students and faculty enjoy this week of lighthearted fes-

tivities, such as science teacher Mrs. Dubridge, who says, “I think spirit week is awesome, and I always participate.”

Senior Dakota Courter said, “Normally I don't participate because I have

no interest in the outfits and dressing up. Black and red Friday is an ex-ception. ” I too only par-ticipate in black and red day and believe that showing school pride, es-pecially at a time such as homecoming, is im-portant. I’d prefer to do without the needless addi-tional and unnecessary days that come with it. I feel as though those are simply a waste of time and should not be en-dorsed by the school. That being said, if the student body wishes to participate in a “dress up day” they should absolutely be al-lowed just not be mandat-ed by the school.

Which is the best product?

By Joseph Smith


There’s the age old question of is Apple or Android better? I have an Apple device, so in my opinion I prefer Apple because it’s more sim-plistic to use.

It also has top of the line technol-ogy, which makes the phone very fast. Additionally, it’s easy to trans-fer data from one phone to the other with the cloud so there is little has-sle photos, videos, etc.

Senior Dylan McCloskey says, “ I

feel as if I used Android when I was 13, and that Apple is the father to Android and is better in all ways.”

I strongly agree with this state-ment because Apple does feel like it’s the superior brand, and is better in all ways. But, senior Wyatt Koutz Says, “I prefer Android be-cause it was my first phone, and I have just stuck with it since.” All Android supporters just don’t un-derstand the greatness of Apple, and that is why they support An-droid.

2016 was filled with some appalling, yet funny, makeup trends, and 2017 is looking just as promis-ing. In previous years, the beauty industry definitely has had lots of hits and misses when it comes to trends. According to SLHS freshman, Macie Salladay, “I think trends are great for people to ex-press themselves, but it's still good to be original,”.

How does something become a trend though? Most trends are started on

social media, but one that really stands out was the “100 layer” trend of 2016. This trend started in June of 2016 by Youtuber Cris-tian Rotenberg, of Simply Nailogical, when she painted 116 layers of nail polish onto her nails that she named “Polish moun-tain.” It was a 12-hour process that many people would like to call point-less, but she ended up making millions on it. The trend went viral. Everyone wanted to see what they could cover themselves with 100 lay-ers of. “ I think it's a waste of time,” says freshman

Ethan Wilson.

Whether it was pointless or not, it's definitely something that will be re-membered in years to come. The crazy trend of 2017 so far is the “feathered eyebrow.” It’s accomplished by applying glue or some other kind of hair gel to your eyebrows, then taking an eyebrow brush and spreading the hairs out.

No one really knows how this trend started, but people seeing it through the public eye aren't really into it. It is easily the most hated trend of 2017.

Men’s fashion vs. women’s fashion

By Jayce Kuehnlein


Students accessorize themselves daily here at SLHS to help tie their out-fits together. Recently the new fashion fad is wear-ing chokers. A choker is a necklace that is form fit-ting to the neck. It is a new fashion sense that can tie together any outfit.

When asked on her opinion of chokers, SLHS senior, Alayna Corder said, “I think they’re su-per cute and stylish. They’re actually really comfortable to wear and

feel like any other type of accessory.”

Guys, on the other hand, do not often wear chokers, since it is a little bit more on the feminine side.

There are guys in the high school who wear gold chains which is, in a sense, the male substitute of the choker. Gold chains have been a men's fashion item for ages, but chains come in all kinds of dif-ferent shapes and sizes.

When asked about his chain, senior, Dylan McCloskey said, “My chain was a gift to me from my deceased great

grandma, and it has senti-mental value.”

Chains are a growing item in men’s fashion, because they go with any outfit. They are most commonly seen around the necks of music artists and also baseball players. However, chains are not limited to them. Chains can be seen being worn around our school and others.

Men’s and women’s fashion have many differ-ences. However, there are some similarities amongst them, and neck attire is just one of them.

From Finland: Oliver Koskela By Faith Best


Oliver is from Vantaa, Finland; he

is staying with the Oswald’s. When

asked about the difference between

the school back home and SLHS he

said that our school is a lot smaller

than the one in Finland, and there

are at least 1200+ students there.

When inquired about what is the

weirdest thing that he has experi-

enced while he has been here, he

replied that there has not been any.

His favorite American food is hot

dogs. He said that they do have hot

dogs in Finland, but the ones in

America are much better. He does

not have a favorite subject because

he likes them all.

When inquired about what his

initial thoughts were about coming

to SLHS were he thought that the

school would be quieter then in his

other school and that he has learned

to live surrounded by noise.

When asked about what he misses

the most about home he said that it

was his bike because he loves to

cycle. His hobbies include cycling,

calisthenics, which is bodyweight

training. He is currently a member

of the football team here.

Leo Bodin from St. Jorioz, France By Holli Rivard

Shark Scene Editor

Leo is from St. Jorioz, France, and he is staying with the Pierce family. We asked him what he missed most about back home and he said that he misses his family the most out of everything that he left behind him.

For Leo, his initial thought on coming here to go to school as an ex-change was that he was very excited. Coming to a foreign place with not having many friends can

be a difficult thing to do, so he was hoping people would be welcoming.

The first people that he met when he got here was, obviously, his host family, and then their family friends.

We asked him what he found most different about France and America and he told us that back home in France, he and his fami-ly eat dinner in a very for-mal setting and here, he finds it very different, be-cause you just “take some-thing from the fridge.”

Leo’s favorite American food is a burger and he also informed us that his favorite sport is basket-ball.

One place that he wants to visit while he is in America is New York. We wanted to know what are some of them things that he does for fun and he said that he enjoys playing basketball, playing the guitar, and skiing.

There’s so much more to know about Leo than these basic facts, so go say hello and make him feel welcomed!

Saga is from Stock-

holm, Sweden and she is

living with the Hansen

family while she is here.

We asked her what her

initial thought was on

coming to America to be

an exchange student and

she told us how excited

she was.

We asked Saga what

one of the weirdest things

about America was and

she responded with, “The

weirdest thing about

America, in my opinion,

is the free refills on drinks

at restaurants.” I guess

that we, as Americans

don’t realize what all we

have and don’t have to

pay extra for. Speaking

of restaurants, Saga’s fa-

vorite American food is a

burger. We asked her

what her favorite sport

was and she said that she

enjoys playing soccer on

her free time. One thing

that she is really looking

forward to while she is

her is Halloween. She

says that

Halloween is her favorite

holiday.

Although she is very

excited for the school year

here, she misses her

friends and family back

home, as anyone would. It

can’t be easy to to put

everything on pause back

home and start a journey

in a completely different

country where you know

nobody.

The place that she wants

to go to the most while

she is in America is Ha-

waii.

She informed us that

she would rather go to the

mountains than the beach

any day. As previously

stated, coming to a coun-

try you’ve never been to

before must be hard, so it

would be nice to have a

friend. She told us that the

first person that intro-

duced herself to Saga,

other than her host family,

was Kaja, another one of

SLHS foreign exchange

students.

Overall, there is a lot to

know about Saga. If you

find that you would like

to get to know her more,

Song becomes hit overnight By Terri Heyder


Taylor Swift’s new song “Look

what you made me do” is becoming

more and more popular. According

to a Clarisse Loughrey report, “This

new song has just broke YouTube

records. The views have reached

nearly 73 million in only three

days. The song has been streamed

23 million times!”

What captures even more atten-

tion is that it has been downloaded

245,900 times in only three days.

The song has a lot more beat and

excitement added, which in return,

gets people moving to it. Though

the words may seem more morbid

than expected for pop radio sta-

tions, it’s not bad at all. Because of

many rumors and her changing her

genre, Swift has become less popu-

lar. This song has seemed to bring

her back into popularity. In the mu-

sic video, she has the multiple “old”

hers, and a new one of herself, they

represent her old self (ves) and

what people thought her to be, plus

what she depicted herself as in her

past music videos. A lot of students

at Saint Louis High School seem to

like it a lot even though most

claimed to not like her, or her mu-

sic. The background on this song is

rumored to be about many possible

issues and drama she encountered

during her music career, including

the feud with Kanye West, the dra-

ma with her ex boyfriend, and the

one dollar she won in a recent law-

suit against a DJ.

The Flash includes some tear inducing drama, heart-quickening action, mild comedy, science fiction, and romance. Throughout the show (which has now been renewed for a fourth sea-son), there is a series of heart wrenching twists and turns, with betrayal and new found love that keeps you on the edge of your seat. The Flash also includes a few crossover episodes with other shows such as Super-girl, The Arrow, and Leg-ends of Tomorrow in which Barry and the Star Labs team join forces with former friends to defeat a greater foe that just one team can’t vanquish. Not only is the storyline impressive, but the CGI (Computer Generated Images) is quite impressive too. From simple running scenes to evil gorillas and black holes, the CGI re-

mains realistic and quite astonishing. Through it all The Flash is a action, drama filled rollercoaster of a show that you won’t be able to stay away from.

The skull kid threat-

ened to send the moon

crashing into the earth.

The hero, Link, must

save Termina from total

annihilation.

With the help of vari-

ous masks you receive

along the way, Link

may save the world in

three days.

As you progress

through the game, you

earn various masks that

help you on your adven-

ture. The first mask you

earn is the Deku Scrub

mask. In this form, you

are able to skip on water

for a short time, shoot

bubbles, hide in Deku

flowers scattered

throughout Termina and

the areas surrounding it.

Later in the story, you

can earn other masks

similar to this with dif-

ferent abilities that are

helpful. With masks and

different songs you

learn along the way.

This adventure is one of

a kind.

SL Sharks love Cancun

By Isabel Larson


Cancun is a Mexican grill restau-

rant that people visit to eat a nice

meal. There are many different lo-

cations in which there is a Cancun.

Some of these locations are

Okemos, St. Johns, Lansing, and

Alma, which is the closest. Cancun

opens at 11:00 am and closes at

10:00 pm.

Many people would say that Can-

cun has amazing service and that

the food is absolutely tasty! They

have many different yummy foods

to choose from, such as fajitas,

chimichangas, tacos, enchiladas,

burritos, and much more. Cologio

Alighire, who is a St. Louis student

and an employee at Cancun, says,

“Even though I am around the food

all the time due to work, it sure

does not get old because it is just so

good!” Cancun is so delicious that

they are always very busy, and it’s

always a packed restaurant full of

those who love Cancun food.

Though a lot of people love the

dishes, they are not a huge fan re-

garding the prices. Most would say

that Cancun is kind of on the pricey

side. The dinner meals are on the

pricey side, but the lunch menu is

not too expensive. Overall, Cancun

is a great place to eat if you want

some tasty food!

The Blue Shamrock Pub

is a popular restaurant run

by Mike and Monica

McCloskey with a loca-

tion on Mill Street in St.

Louis.

The pub is a great place

for family to sit down and

enjoy a nice lunch or din-

ner. The restaurant has

also been a popular place

of choice for SLHS stu-

dents when they are re-

leased for open campus

lunch.

The Blue Shamrock

serves many different en-

trees, including a variety

of different burgers,

soups, wings, wraps, and

sandwiches. They also

provided a small dessert

menu that includes deep

fried Oreos, or cinnamon

bites. They also provide

alcoholic beverages but

you obviously have to be

21 or older to purchase

them. The restaurant pro-

vides a great environment;

you are almost guaranteed

to have great food and a

good time while you are

there.

SLHS students were

asked about their opinion

on the Blue Sham. Student

Humberto Alba said, “I

think The Blue Shamrock

is a good place to eat. I

enjoy going there for

lunch and sometimes for

dinner. My favorite things

to get from there are either
