By James Brennan On the cold night of November 10, a football game took place at Gurski stadium, but it was not an ordinary football game; this was the annual Powder Puff football game where the senior girls face off against the underclassmen girls. Both teams, of course, wanted to win, but they were also playing for a bigger cause; they were playing to help raise money and awareness for Wilson High School's Mini-THON.

By Maggie Foight Being innovative is not easy. One would have to discover new ideas that are never thought of before and present them to a world that does not look kindly on unknown concepts. However, a junior at Wilson High School is planning to pave the way to future successes by overcoming today’s inventors’ ironic hurdle: their resistance to new advancements. By Maggie Foight Everyone has a bad day, even the best of people. However, what defines someone is not why she had that roadblock, but rather how she reacts to it. Mary Warker, a junior at Wilson, is determined to not let small setbacks throw her off. “I think dedication means always staying on task, never giving up, and working on what you need to. You need to stay with it, even when it doesn’t go your way,” she says. By Abby Wurster Whether you choose to disregard or retaliate against patriarchal values and misogynistic societies, the Wilson High School Feminist Society (WHSFS) welcomes you with open arms, regardless of your gender.
The WHSFS stimulates comprehensive discussions about women’s issues within Wilson. The male and female members of the club brainstorm ideas to break gender stereotypes, encourage their peers to respectfully challenge destructive assumptions within the Wilson community, and attempt to promote one of their many fundraising activities or care drives during a productive meeting. Sarah Reinbrecht, a senior at Wilson and the leader of the club, says, “I aim to bring awareness to the issues women face while also promoting a safe place for young women to express their frustrations and feelings.” By Sarah Larkin Get to know Gravy for your favorite time of the year! This shy guy is a mix between a German Shepherd and a Beagle. Weighing in at only 31 pounds, this guy has a lot of growing to do! Since he’s only ten months old, Gravy can spend his time growing up with you. Gravy would be best cared for as an only pet and can sometimes be possessive of his most precious toys. He’s a little uncomfortable around people at first but he’ll warm up just like your favorite holiday topping! By Sarah Larkin Tucker is a two year old Russian Blue with curiosity at the core of his heart. Like other cats of his breed, he’s intuitive and loves to explore new places (like a new home). Tucker is pretty playful, but would prefer to live without any other pesky cats to bother him and steal away attention that is rightfully his. Between his face and personality, Tucker really has it all (besides a home)! By Wes Cipolla Michaelangelo. Voltaire. Madonna. Like all artistic greats, Armani goes by one name. This Wilson senior's real name is Armani Joseph Garcia, but he asks that people simply call him Armani. When one thinks of the name Armani, one imagines Italian boutiques and 895-dollar watches. The Armani of West Lawn, Pennsylvania has his own fashion house as well - though it is quite different than what we are all familiar with. Armani has made several thousand dollars from his clothing company, SLUMBS, which was founded on May 18, 2016. SLUMBS, a name Armani used to go by on the online video game circuit, is now a brand which is near-ubiquitous at Wilson High School.
