Pick 6: Head basketball coach takes a shot at football

Margo Friloux, Section Editor • September 29, 2021
Hannah Gonzalez

The experts return after an interesting series of events last week. We had a major upset in the UNC vs Georgia Tech game as all of our experts picked UNC, but Georgia Tech pulled out a win. Hughes continues to lead the pack with a 13-5 record by basing her picks on the colors of each team and a little help from football captain Will Craft. Koehn is behind Hughes with a 10-8 record and Doig, Friloux, and Giordano all tied 9-9. Our guest pickers are taking up the rear with a 8-10 record. 

This week we have some big college games with some unsure outcomes. Our guest this week is head boys basketball coach Kyle Herrema. Herrema has great knowledge of basketball, and we’ll see after this week if it’s the same for football.

About the Contributors
Margo Friloux
Margo Friloux, Section Editor
Entering her final year on staff, Margo is excited to work with her Co-Sports Editor and Leopard Life alum, Will Doig. This year is bittersweet to Friloux. She is ready to soak up the rest of her high school years in the newsroom. Out of the newsroom, Friloux is hoping it up, hanging out with friends, going to Braum's, watching “Grey’s Anatomy” or “Star Wars” and hanging out with her sisters. Friloux is an avid Harry Styles and Anakin Skywalker fan. She gets the chance to see her idol, Mr.Styles, in concert this year, and she is determined to make him fall in love with her. In school, Friloux is a part of the Patient Care Technician (PCT) class, NHS, LARK and basketball. Although she’s still shedding tears over the retirement of Parker and Lindsey, she and Doig are still carrying on the Leopard Life legacy. Live. Laugh. Love. TRL.

Mama Mia, here we go again. As she takes her last ride in the TRL classroom, Hannah Gonzalez is ready to end this year with a bang. Gonzalez serves as a Co-Graphics editor for the third year in a row and this is her fourth year on staff. When she’s not making killer graphics, you can most likely find Gonzalez on the volleyball court, at FCA meetings, in school or going for a joy ride in the Jeep that she named “Beep.” Although TRL is life, Gonzalez also enjoys going for late-night ice cream runs, watching early morning sunrises, going to church every Sunday morning and going on an occasional lake trip. To add to her list of accomplishments, Gonzalez has won three state championships and is looking for a fourth. With her happy planner by her side, Gonzalez is looking forward to kicking procrastination to the curb as she conquers her final year as a high school student.
