Southeast High 2006 Yearbook

Stories from the Halls

By Stacy Tamerius

e past year h as been full of ups and downs, changes and familiarities. As students ntered the h a ll s last August to start another year of schoo l , some for the fir st nme, some for the last, we embarked u pon another jou rney, beginning ye t another chapter of o ur school's incredible story

Inside the sturd y walls of o ur beloved sc h ool, one can witn ess the outs tanding pride and tradition built through years of dedica tion and sµccess. Thro ugho ut the halls each day, stud ents can be fo und cramming at the last minute fo r a mat h exam, sh aring a laugh with thei r closest friends, or get ting prepped fo r the night 's big game But this year's partic~lar plot was also full of twists and turns as club d ays, parking lot rules, sc hedule times and the appearance of the schoo l itself underwent signific ant changes.

For more than fif ty years now, o ur tru sty hall s have borne witness to the numerous successes and gocxi times o ur students h ave been privileged to be a part of and create. The halls h ave seen studen ts celebrate those 'A' tests, they've watched li ve ly debates and disc ussion s , they've seen the tremendous effort put forth in they gyms for practices and competitions. But even mo re so, they h ave seen to morrow's leaders learn the values and the morals of the stories and apply what they have learned to their own lives.

In o ur hallways , a montage of characters h as been brought together , and studen ts, a thletes, cheerleaders, fans, actors, musicians, leaders , and journalists h ave all found a place to belong. The halls h ave seen it all and h a ve watched our lives h appen. Since the day , years ago, when they went up to provide the humble setting for o ur education, our halls have been here, standing with us through the gocxi times and bad, wa tching our stories happen.

If our halls were given a voice , imagine what they might share. Would they tell of the victorio us triumphs on the field, in the classroom, and in the arts, or of the small ges tures of knight helping knight and knights helping the world ? Their walls are full of tales to tell , memories of events witnessed ready to be revealed So what stories would they t ell, if these halls could talk?

Si.ngi.n it all Seni.ocs Deew Matt Hu.ss, John Reinh.a.ro t, arul :And.,.,.,., Rose karooke dut'U'l.9 the &est.et- &sh on :August 00

t udents start the story of their high school ii ves in these halls and carry them into the rest of their lives. Friendships are gained and friendships are lost but the stories of these memories will be held within these walls forever.

Students experience dances, games, pep rallies, StuCo and DECA events, classes and plays. Even when not participating in school events, there are Lincoln Stars and Junior Stars hockey games, Saltdogs baseball games, Husker games, Wesleyan games, movies or just hanging out downtown or shopping in the newly renovated Westfie ld Gateway mall.

Graduating seniors of 2006 write the final chapter to their hi gh sc hool story this year, but take all of these sto ri es our halls told t hem and put t hem in the beginning of their new book.

Memories fram the Years

Student Stories

The high school years are full of friends, fun, hard work and learning real life le&50ns. When school and school activities take up so much of our time, fond memories are inevitably formed with those people who we spend so much of our time with.

Sophie V odvarka has happy memories from her junior year of running cross country and being a member of the team "Everything was so much fun, the team nights, the trips to away meets, and the landscaping." Many students were able to find their niche in after school clubs and groups.

Others will never forget certain classes and teachers which they learned so much from. For Alissa Wilcox, that class was Mr. Nebel's Differentiated Citizenship Issues class. "I'll never forget how we've all been encouraged through CID to be sacrifices in 'The Church of Nebel,"' she recalled.

One of Cliff Cessna's favorite high school memories lies

in one of the most anticipated events of the whole year for upperclassmen: Prom. "Prom was a lot of fun," he recalled. "It was especially fun going out to eat before and going to Post Prom afterwards "

Friends are the center of many of our memories as high schoolers Melissa Goldsmith remembers the time that she and a few friends cut class. "We were driving and all of a sudden the car started sliding on the ice," she said. "We all braced ourselves, it was probably my best memory from high school."

From classes to after school sporting events to just spending time with their friends, Southeast's seniors will always have very special memories of the time they spent in their high school and will have stories that they can remember for the rest of their life.

Inspirational Moments

&mtheas t h as al ways been a place wh ere schoo l spirit is abundant and where students and staff alike can be fow1d doing everything they can t o h elp our commw1i ty. Senior Brianna Smith will remember the time "wh en Mr. Leader and Mr. Focht dressed up in dresses because of a con tenst dealing with raising money fo r the Hurricane Katrina relief fund."

Senior Emlyn Short also remembers ano ther tin1e when students came toge ther to h elp someone in need. "I won't forget the time when I vo lunteered to help clean up Hallam after the tornadoes hit. It was sad to see how much peop le had lost, but amazing seeing all of the high sch oo l kids that volunteered because they wanted to help," sh e said.

Student Stories

Lastly, the teachers inspired st udents to be persistent and crea tive in ac hieving their go als. Senior Jessica H ebbard commented that, "Some teachers may be a little strange o r act a little weird a t times, but th a t is just one of the qualities t h ey use to help us learn and expand o ur minds, in order to think o utside of the box."

Of co urse there were always the "you h ad to be there" mo ments "I remember when we put Brad Moneto in the trash cans and gave him a swirlie, and when we put Dusty Albers in the dumpster and he lost his wallet ," said Travis Mowrey.

No matter what happens during the year there are always moments that mean the most to yo u and yo ur freinds that yo u will a lways sh are when you see each o ther later o n in life.

Fun Times with Friends

Stu den t Storie s

Spending time with friends is one of the mos t important and enjoyable parts of high school for students. They hang out at all different types of places ranging fr o m res t a urants to movie theaters to coffee h ouses to their living rooms, but n o ma tter where they go or what they do, st udents are building rel ationships that they will never forget.

Ka therine Kri eger remembers the time that her and fri ends, Kirsten Foster, Karen Obrist and Brittanii Obenchain went to Omaha to buy Prom dresses. After encountering numero us del ays and obstacl es, looking back she was able to say, "I'm pretty sure it was like the best day ever."

Stacy T ameriu s remembers when her and two o f her close friends Kai tlin Voelker and Jenna Marshall spent four hours a t Applebee's. "We didn ' t know what to d o tha t nig ht so finall y we

just went t o dinner but ended up staying t h ere the whole nigl:- r talking," sh e recalled.

Mark Scheer knows that school groups and ac tivities are 1 a great pl ace to meet people and find so me of yo ur best friends. ' [ made lots of friends in m arching band," he recalled af ter being 1 member thro ugh all of his high school years. Sometimes those the : yo u share such time cons uming commi tmen ts and ac tivities wit L become yo ur closest fri ends

Without friends and these fun times most students wou H find themselves lost, or least of all just very bored . Friends are the r fo r the good times but are sti ll there wh en yo u n eed them the mos· Even after we gradu ate and leave the securi ty of Southeast and o u • beloved hi gh sc h oo l friends, embarking upon new jo urneys, we wi'l always h ave the memo ries of these great friends.

CJiaracters We Remember

Student Stories

Everyon e h as a favorite actor o r actress, singer, artist, or artoon character, but everyone also has someone close to them ,ho they will n ever fo rget. They might be their heroes or just their riencls, but these people affect us in many ways.

Some m ay help us in sports or schoo l and have an effect on s that way. Senior Jo hn Reinhardt, who h as a love for playing )()tball, will remember his coaches and teachers who taught him 1any things he needed and helped him a long the way.

Cheerleading and other school activities helped provide 1emorable mento rs. Cheyenne Bice looked to her cheerl eading )()nsor, Crystal Folden-Lapin, for a positive example. She also )()ked to her fri ends and co-capta in Alissa Wilcox for sup port.

Music and arts are highly looked upon here at Southeast. Former Bel Canto member Emily Wilson most remembers director M issy Noonan. Wilson stated, "Mrs. Noonan was always very influential to me; she made it seem worthwhile to sing ."

Students might just have the effect of being remembered by the way they look and what they h ave contributed to the sc h ool. Derek Roehl admired basketball star, Matt Hill. "He is enonnous! and he just seems like a cool guy, " stated Roehl.

In the high school years it was impor tant for us as students to find those people with whom we cou ld relate and look up to. At the time we spent at Southeast st udents were able to find inspiring role models and fa ithful friends.

Small but Mighty

The passing of this year's senior cl ass marks the end of an era for Linco ln Southeas t. For four decades, fr om the 1963 opening of Po und Middle School to the 2003 opening of Lincoln NorthStar, Southeast hosted studen ts in grades 10 through 12 . After NorthStar opened, a lon g with Lincoln So uthwest the year before, all LPS high schoo ls went to grades 9 thro ugh 12. The Class of 2006 is the las t cl ass to st art "high schoo l" as sophomores.

Southeast's Cl ass of 2006 is uniqu e in anot h er way - it is the smallest since 1963 when only 321 students comprised the graduating cl ass. A s o f the end of fir st semester, t here were 351 seniors enro lled at Southeast The small numbers are a resu lt of the two new hi gh sc hools being built to relieve overcrowding Prior to 2003, graduating cl asses were frequentl y around 600. In fact, the larges t graduating class ever was the Class o f 1999 which h ad 690 students near ly d ouble the size of the Class of 2006.

End of an Era

Although we are sma ll, we have much to be proud of , bo h acad emic al ly and a thletically Bert Gay, Matt Sheets, and An 1e Willborn qualified as National Merit Scholarship Serni-final i ts and seven qualified for the NMS Commended Scholar st at t 1s: Laura Cerveny, Kirsten Foster, Andrew Ganz , Andrew Ruhrd anz , Kaitlin Voelker, Justin Whitney, and Eleanor Wood.

In at hl etics, Brian Hansen was# 1 Doubles State C h ampi (1n in tennis this year with junior Ch ase Muma and #2 Doubles Str [ e C hampion last year along with Class of 2005 graduate Tim Berg( r. M att Hill led the way fo r the boys varsity basketball team ar ,d signed to play fo r the Uni versity of Texas. Additionally, neaily every sport had a senio r qualify fo r the sta te tournament.

With such shining stars in the sma lles t cl ass in 33 yea s, there can be no doubt tha t the hall s wi ll continu e to see the traditi ( ,n of So utheas t' s o utstanding stu dents.

tepping Up

What is the first thing that comes to mind at the beginning of your junior year? Going out to lunch and not worrying aoo u t the school staff.

Traci Wisbey stated, "Now that we are upper classmen we are actually able to go out to lunch without getting in trouble by Craig or anyone."

Everyone knows that w h en we become upperclassmen we have a lot more privileges and responsibilites, and it helps when we have a great learning environment . "We don't really have a stereotypical high school," said Joseph Hopkins.

Jay Cummings agreed and added, "Th i s characterisitc makes Southeast a nice place to attend ."

Another thing that is big for most upperclassmen is that teachers expect much more of you since you are so close to graduating. Bailey McAllister said, "A good thing aoout being an upperclassmen is just being able to say that you are a junior or a senior."

"Partying and hanging out with my friends is the best part. I got a car and got to park in A lot," said Biz Rose.

Being an upperclassmen also means it's time to start looking for a future after high school or start looking for a higher education. "0:,llege is the next step of your life after high sc hool if you want to make a good living or are planning on playing sports," said Derek Richardson. •

Being an upperclassmen, you are now able to give the advice you were given to all the new up and coming upperclassmen. Junior Matt Severn said, "Work hard, cause it's not going to be easy, but have fun and get what needs to be accomplished done. It's all about getting everything out of the way your sophomore and junior year, so you can have a nice relaxing senior year."

Not all advice given is going to be about working hard in all you classes and getting all of the requinnents out of the way. Holly Piper said, ''You should be more

involved in school." Being more involved in school functions helps you meet new peop le and do so mething you norn1ally don't do

In al l, upperclassmen have a lot of advice that they cou ld give underclassemen, but we all stick to the good ol' get all of your requinnents done and don't act stupid in the halls. So in the end, do your best to pass your classes, don't act better then anyone, and get to know as many people as you can. 'Cause you only get this experience once, so do you r best and have fun.

oal s to ·get ahead

By Ryan Evans and Myles Cecere, class of '05

Each year of high school will be remembered by individual students in different ways. How we remember these years depends on what we accomplish in them. The goals set by juniors are particularly vital in determining the direction of an academic career. Most juniors cite success in classes as a top priority.

"My goal is to get good grades so I can get into a good college," said junior Matt Severn. Being in the final two years of high school brings with it an increased amount of freedom. "You get to leave [campus) and you are placed with more responsibility," pointed out Severn.

Becoming more independent is a goal of any high school student and junior year is often the time when students are given the opportunity to step out on their own.

As jun iors look toward the exciting new opportunities that await them in college (or trade school), they should cherish rather than overlook their last days of high school. In light of this, many juniors chose to approach their senior year like junior Keaton Kraft. "I'm trying to get all of my required classes out of the way this year so that next year I can focus on taking fun and interesring classes and enjoy my senior year and take it easy," Kraft explained.

spiring to achieve

By Ryan Evans and Myles Cecere, class of '05

Henry David Thoreau once said, "We were oom to succeed, not to fail." Lincoln Southeast has a strong tradition of producing strong community members. A large part of this is due to the seeds of achievement that are sown in high sc hool. Whenever we aspire to greatness, we are pushed beyond the barriers we had previously created for ourselves, which for perhaps the briefest of moments seemed unsealable

Whether in the classroom or on the field of play, achievements come in many shapes and sizes. For instance, junior track runner Jay Cummings aspired to "make the state track meet." On the other hand,

jw1ior Alan Speedlin's asp iring acheivements have more of an academic base. "I hope to get good grades so I'm not grounded."

Whatever fo nn these achievements may materialize in, there is no question that they line the halls of LSE. It's clear to any visitor who sees the countless trophies or abundance of academic awards that Southeast has always had a streak of success Despite the fact that students may not be aware of the magi1itude of their achievements at the moment, they will no doubt come to realize thier importance in the con1ing years.

long with starting to drive, many sophomores also get jobs to help pay for gas, going to movies, and doing o ther fun t hings with friends.

Ryan Epp works for Hillis and Co., a ca tering service in the H aymarket. Epp said, "I real ly enjoy working there because I like interacting and wo rking with people."

T o he lp balance schoo l and jobs, regul ations require that 16 year o ld and yo unger workers can o nly wo rk fo r certain lengths of time during the school year Epp said,

"I work an average of 10 h, ,un per week, mainly on weeke di and other d ays when we d, in 'I h ave school.

his yea, the fall play was educational as well as entertaining. "The R ose of Treason" was abo ut the members of "The White R ose," a group of universtity students who were appalled about the truth coming to light about the Nazi Party . Students who participated in the play got a little bit more insight about what went on in Gemiany in the 1940's. St ud ents portrayed Sophie and Hans Scho ll, Christoph Probst, Professor Kurt Huber, Alexander Schmorell, and Willi Graf, all members of "The White Rose."

"We told the beautiful, powerful story that we set out to tell; we inspired the audiences ," stated senior Abi She lbourn.

"Getting ready for shows was tense, but we remained calm and focused. Then again, getting your make-up done and getting your costume on was very hectic," explained sophomore Tyler Smith.

In District One Act Play competition "The Rose of Treason" came in fourth place " I was especially proud of Jessie Tidball who stepped up and played the lead when Kellyn got sick. She had less then two days to learn all the lines and the blocking and she was perfect," said senior Jenna Marshall.

And Then There was Style

By: Nico le Mora les a nd Me lissa Go lds mith

l!t:ast year , it was pink t-shirts and popped collars that the guys were wearing. But , thankfu lly, this year the collars have gone down into their original pl aces, and the pink shirts h ave been put back into their sisters' closets.

For the girls, this year has been one of recurring styles, mos tly fr om the 60' s and 70's

The big-beaded neckl aces that our grandmothers used to wear have found their way out of the old jewelry boxes and back onto our generations ' necks , when only abo ut five years ago we would have never taken a chance on them

The round-toed shoes, natural looking h air and make-up have also made a huge comeback. Today 's teens are "cuter than ever," said FCS teacher Lori Goff, "but some fashions have go t to go."

When in doubt, an always -safe, universal trend for men and women, young and old is old jeans, t-shirts, and tennis shoes.

The first few weeks

The fir st few days of high schoo l are definitely the scariest. At fir st this may feel like a huge, terrifying building and in some ways it real ly is big. But once yo u ge t a routine down of what yo u need with you and when you have time to stop by your locker to switch out your books it all becomes routine. And if you're new, when you are late yo u can always use the classic excu se , "I couldn't find the room," but always say it with a smile or the teac hers will think yo u're trying to aggravate them.

Another big thing is to stay on top of your homework. H omework is the school' s way of attempting to ge t yo u to devote some time towards

yo ur classes Homework is not only a nice c'llll of yo ur grade but seriously helps yo u to unden rnr the material. Many of the uppercl ass men' s bgge regret is not keeping up on it.

Spend your first days ge tting to kno~ yo teachers and other cl assmates. First irnpressio1lS a important especial ly among yo ur teachers. Along with that it is in yo ur best im ert to pass all of your cl asses. If you ge t me,st 1 yo ur credits taken care of in yo ur first years yo upperclass years won't be as academically imp: ,rta and yo u will be abl e to sit back and take it JSl' I yo u so choose.

A little homework help

H omework is a very important part of your academic success. You should always make sure to stay on top of your homework because it will help you to be successful in your classes. Doing your homework helps to better learn the material that you will be expected to know and helps you perfrom lx!tter on tests and quizzes, which are usually the lx!tter percent of your grade.

H omework can be done right after school, lx!fore yo u go to bed (my favorite), or you can rush to finish it in the morning, which is not recommended. One big thing that helps is the af ter school program , Student Outreach Service, or SOS, which was new

this year. SOS has teachers, administrators, and National Honor Society Members available to work with students after schoo l. Classroom teachers are very open to answering questions that you might have that you didn't understand, so if you can't fi gure it all out , don't panic. Friends are also a good source of help when you get stuck.

While doing homework, having the 1V on or listening to music can be a distraction so it' s best to avoid them during this time.

If you still can't get yo ur homework done I only have one tip for you: have a good excuse!

Dating

It's your first year in high school and you feel like you're not getting anywhere when it comes to dating or meeting new people. Well, from being someone who was once in your shoes and had to do the whole freshman thing, here is some advice you may or may not learn from, but hopefully it will help you in being a little more sociable or even score you a date.

First, don't be shy. Be yourself and just start talking to people who sit next to you in a class or that have your lunch. While it's awkward to just go up to somebody you don't know, just be yourself and

take a deep breath. The worst that could hapr they don't talk back, and then in that case, th u are the ones who look dumb.

In a new class, laugh and talk with the person sitting next to you, smile a lot, and d01 't lt shy. People like talking to people who smile an • lOOK fun; it's harder to talk to someone who looks 1 ,1ean or who's. Act like you do with your friends wit h the opposite sex; if you act like you've known the ri1fo awhile, it takes the weird away. Eventually, , . u'i find a great boyfriend or girlfriend.

t ud ent Co uncil is an o rganiza tion where se lected students can come together to represent the sch ool and sponsor a number of fundr aisers or events for our sch ool that have become as much of a tradition as academic and athletic successes. Student Council , o r StuCo, as it is more familiarly called, sponsor s KnightZone t-shirts, the Pancake Feed, Spirit Week, H omecoming and a variety of other events each year.

The funds ra ised from s u c h events a r e then donated to various charities. This year, StuCo donated $3000 to the Charlie Wilson R ep lacement Care H ome Fund, which aims to build a home for mentally and physically handicapped young ad ults.

Senior Cliff Cessn a, President of StuCo, explained, "StuCo is a group of leaders promoting Sout h east inside and out through doing activities in school and serving ot h ers outside of sc h ool. "

Good Tinies

Summer and weekend breaks for many if not most students come as a much welcomed change from the tedious hours spent in the classroom and completing homework assignments late into the night. Southeast students make the most of this time, spending it with family and friends, doing things ranging from spontaneous road trips to mellow nights at a friend's house to serving one's world with a mission trip. Southeast's students definitely make the most of their time away from school and find fun in a variety of activities and adventures.

With the stresses of class work and rules pushed to the back of their minds, kids can enjoy themselves doing whatever it is they want to do, with their closest friends. While the purpose of school is focused around learning science, math, and ::i multitude of other subject areas, the thing people remember most from the high school years is always what they did and who they did it with. They remember the first date, the Senior Prom, the day they got lost in Omaha.

But the weekends come and go, and before you

it, summer has returned. The summer flies by,

and in even less time, it seems, you are back in school. But for many, they've already had their last summer, and many of this year's seniors will be packing up to go away before the heat of the July sun reaches our Nebraska homes.

"Take the chance while you can, do something that you may not always do, make those memories with your friends, because before you know it the opportunity may be gone," advised senior Stacy Tamerius.

The times that Knights aren't in school are filled with friends and good times. Without them, Southeast High School couldn't be the place that it is, nor would the people be the characters that they are.

uring the summer students have their friends and family. They have their jobs that last day and night, from the early hours of detass ling to the late nights at the movie theatres

Now it 's time to hear about what teach ers do when school's out for the summer.

Most of the teachers hold jobs. Tim Tidball h as done carpentry since before he started teaching, but for the past two summers he has put down his hammer and n ails and has become a student.

But Tidball is not the only teacher working for his Master's Degree. Math teacher and baske tball coach, Ryan Phifer, is also on his way to a graduate degree. These teachers are working just as hard as we are during the schoool year .

The Teachers

(continued from page 73)

Why do teachers h old jobs over the summer? "

I h ave a job to help offse t a teacher' s sal ary ," said English teacher Paul Smith.

It' s always good to h ave an ending and a beginning - always a st ar t over. And for some t eachers, it' s just nice to h ave a break to travel and redecorate

Ann Quinlan, English teacher and yearbook adviser , t aught in Kazakhstan in October , 2004. She spent las t summer in C hico , Californi a helping with the orienta tion for the 2005 Eur asian-American T each ers of Excellentce program

Dick Cas ter , science teacher , h as the job tha t mos t teenages h ave in the summer. H e's a det assling supervisor.

Instead of spending away fr o m the student s , English teacher Donna Mullen keeps h er teaching going during the summer. Sh e is a teacher a t the Sylvan Leaming Center. But she still h as time fo r a little rel axation. "I like to sleep in and fill my knowledge tank," Mullen said.

So when schools o ut fo r the surnmer, remember yo ur teachers are stil l working just as hard.

Academics Leaming the Ropes

By Emily Wilson

J/f these halls could talk, they would whisper abo ut the tho usands of memories that exist in each hall. For years students have walked through the unchanging corridors of Sout h east and have left a piece of themselves and their story lingering everywhere , in the lockers, on the yell ow tiled floor, and in the musty air.

In D-Hall, we are taught the stmies of history as we create history for ourselves a day at a time. Upstairs in F-Hall our 11 are told in a whole new language, and we learn about our world through the classic books in our English classess. In GHa ll, seniors wrap up the stori es that they h ave spent so m any years creating while other s prepare for their future in business and computer courses. And back downstairs in G-Hall, freshman strugg le with starting stories of their very own, chock-full of dreams, drama, and nnl1< 1unn, For seniors these halls mark four years of individual stories, and for the underclassmen they ho ld infinite possibilities for the future . These halls ho ld a piece of ourselves and o ur lives, whet her we like it or not, and the stories that come from these pieces are complex, colorfu l , and just begging to be documented. Academics play an essential role in o ur l1 "--""'l'llli-1.r . Academics is where the principle ( of our story h as its beginning.

As the sun rises over our castle by 37th Street, stud e nts h oard in sleepy masses to st a rt their day. The bell rings and our administrators, our ga te keepers , allow the students to fl ow almost intrinsicly through the rest of the halls. A few coeds with disheveled lookos o n their faces are left herding arou nd the attendance office to ge t their tardy slip s filled out, a nd a boy shuffl es dish ea rteningly into the nurse's offic e where he will spend the rest of the day sleeping on a cot and praying for hi s mother to excuse him for the remainder of the day

At any given time in the day C-hall is occup ied n ot only by the new freshman class, exchanging conversation in front of their lockers, but by specia l education students, custodians, woodworkers, and design technicians as well.

Each group contributes its own unique features, talents, and personality to the character of this hallway, giving both Chall, and each of its students the potential to carry themselves into the future, as Knights.

istory in the making

by Stacy Tamerius and Chelsea Schrage

If t h ese halls cou ld talk, they would say much abo ut o ur history and the h eroism in ou r past that students h ave been learning abo ut inside the cl assrooms and in the "dungeon" that is D-hall.

11-ris hall is where students have the o pportunity to learn abo ut the rights and freedoms they as Americans are born with and the work it took to gain and preserve those freed o ms. Students h ave learned of past events and ways of life, of the economy, of psychological and sociological wonders and even of philosophy. They've been able to learn of the past of othe r cultures and compare t h ose experiences to their own.

Lectures and n ote -taking dominate the structure of most _ classes, but projects and assignmen ts join in t h e mix as well to give the learners variety. St ud ents learn everyt hing there is to kno w abo ut o ur government from the Amendments and Bill of Rig hts to the treaties and h appenings that made our world t h e way it is today:

This history hall is stories, sto ries that students will continue to make when they leave this h all.

reating the future

Every day, students hurry to their classes through O-hall. But as they rush, do they really take the time to look up at the beautifully painted sky li ght? If you were to take the time to really study this painting on the ceiling of the art side of O-hall, you'd notice the tiny details.

For example, there's a small gray airplane soaring through the sky, along with birds. There are tree braches that scrape at the glass, and even little water droplets painted to look like a stom1 has just passed. Another ingenious detail of this painting is the piece of our school newspaper, The Oarion, in the comer.

The north half of O-hall is home to the more creative aspects of Southeast, including baking, interior design, clothing, photography, pottery, and other art classes. During any time of • the day, students can be found making beautiful creations, and sometimes disasters, but all the same, creations.

ehind the scenes

By Stacy T amerius

flipping through the pages of the yearlxiok, looking back on all the memories of the past year, students may take for granted all the effort and hours that go into making the actual lxiok into the lxiok that it becomes.

Reading the stories and editorials of the Oarion., students m ay forget all the research and work that staffers have put into each issue. 0-hall knows however, because it is the h ome away from h o me for the publications' staffs.

Shield and Oarion. creators document the stories that are Ii ved out every d ay in this school. Every day, the h al ls see the tireless effort and the long d ays and work nights required to make the yearlxiok and the newspaper. They see the future editors learning the ins and o uts of the world of journalism. Even when the st udents may forget all the behind the scenes work, the halls see it, and now they are here to tell it.

Though the job of these staffers may be a stressfu l one, it a lways has a happy ending. They will never fail in successfu lly telling you r story.

If E-hall could tell a story it would tell the story of math. There are always numbers to crunch, derivatives to find, and triangles to solve in E-hall. Math designs the world and calculates what does and does not work.

When a student walks down the math hall, one would find 15 different math classes and 17 great teachers who teach these classes. The teachers of E-hall not only have great skills but are also anned with textbooks, calculators, and compasses.

Whether students want to major in math or just gain a stronger understanding of math concepts, there is a math class for everyone. E-hall is often a chal lenging hall for students, but succeeding is the accomplishment.

anaging the beginning

and end of our stori es

The high school story for hundreds of seniors ends here in E-Hall, but the stories for the business students are just beginning. Because E-Hall is senior hall, there is constantly an air of eagerness for closure to the accumulation of four years of hard work Lockers ceased to be decorated, and the hall is nearly desolate after seventh period. To seniors, E-Hall is simply the portal to their soon-tobe freedom. But this does not mean the hall is void of any life.

E-Hall is also home to Southeast's aspiring business persons. Every day the hall is filled with the scent of freshly-baked DECA cookies, and students are constantly bustling in and out of the library.

So, where so many seniors' stories come to a close in E-Hall, a multitude of new stories will bloom and prosper.

J1 world of knowlege

By Emily Wilson

The story of W es tem lan guage is one of the oldes t and most fasc in ating in hi story. It starts bac k to the second and third millenna B C with t h e Inda -Euro pean lan guage. Fro m t hi s branched off the cl assic languages of Albanian, Bal tic-S lavi c , Ce ltic, Armeni an , Gennanic , Latin , Gree k and Inda-Ir anian. It's fro m these eight lang uages that modem day languages began.

Although a lot of English words have Latin rooo ts, English is a Germanic language while the commonly taught lang uages, like French and Spanish , come fr om La tin . Not only is the vocabul ary we leam di ffere nt , but so are the sentence structures

When we take a Spanish or Gennan cl ass, we are not just meeting college requirements ; we are mastering the struct ure of our own language whil e keep ing its roo ts alive. To perfec t a language is to understand t he hi story of lang uage as a whole, taking us to depths of knowlege n o other co urse co uld bring us, te lling us t he story of ot her cul t ures.

uilding a life through bcx)ks

To be be able to create stories of our own, we must first master the stories in classic literature. The books we read are more than assignments: they are historical documentations of previous lives, and by studying them we obtain inspiration and guidance for our own Ii ves.

In our underclassmen years we read classical Greek mythology and study political philosophers like George Orwell. 11-u·ough these gemes we are taught the history of love and war, such as in Homer's "Illiad" and the "Odyssey," and we learn aoout a human's natural state, such as in "The Lord of the Flies" and "Animal Fann."

As upperclassmen we work backwards in time, starting with American literature in 11th grade and then classic philosophy as seniors. We study racism in America and then move to the philosophy of thought and happiness, like in Aristotle's "On Happiness."

To believe that these books have had little influence on our own stories is a fallacy. Classic literature is the blueprint to the ideas and morals on which be base our lives. It's where we get ideas on how to build our own future.

Tum on the 1V at any given time and you come across the popular shows of the day: "Gray's Anatomy," "C:Sl ," "Numbers." And then there are the classics, like "Ani mal Planet."

But wait, where did these shows come from? Just maybe they got their pop ular start in Southeast's own 0-hall, the science wing. Students file into the classrooms eac h day to find out what is corning next. Is there a surprise ending to the lab from the day before? O:mld be.

But whether you are in Geoscience, Biology, Anatomy, Chemistry, Physics, or Forensic Science, Southeast's science teachers are sure to keep you on the edge of your chair.

he Knights '~f ,.? Go Marching

By Buley McAllister

M-hall has always been the home of the Marching Knights who had another successful competition season. Highlights occured in Clarinda, Iowa, at the Southwest Iowa Band Jami:x:>ree, where the band won their fourth consecutive Best Band award, as well as at the Nebraska State Band Association competition, where they hosted the day-long contest for the third year in a row and received a Division One Superior rating, the highest rating JX)Ssible.

"Hosting NSBA was a great experience, and the competition itself was definitely something no one will forget," said freshman Chris Shelburne. When the Knights stepped onto the field, it was 32 degrees - quite the contrast from the 100-plus degree weather during band camp, where it was typically hotter in the building.

Shelburne and other Knights endured two weeks of grueling eight-hour-per-day practices, amidst sweat dripping into their eyes and shouts of "One more time!" and "Do it again!" from band director R.J. Metteer, assistant band director David Young, drumline instructor Ben Shelhaas and color guard instructor Megan O'Neill. Band camp and the double period band class every morning meant hours of practice perfecting the Marching Knights' competition show, Pachebel's Canon Cubed.

Although the band spent more time on the practice field than in M-Hall, the time there was spent reviewing perfom1ances, good and bad, as well as listening to pep talks delivered by Metteer and preparing students for a band trip to Hawaii. M-Hall missed close to 170 students for a week around Thanksgiving break, while they made the trip all the way to Honolulu, Hawaii, on the island of Oahu to march in a parade two days after Thanksgiving.

usic with a new beat

Listen a little closer and you' ll hear the music of M-hall, from soft orchestra music, to jazz, to gocxl ol' classic band music. M-hall was where this all happened. Take a deeper look down the hall; it's the hall where everyone got amped up for a band performance. You might have been able to catch the cast of the musicals and Night of Knights, the annual talent show, in costume and make-up rehearsing their lines, walking off nerves and getting prepared for the biggest events of their Ii ves.

From being a home away from home for kids in the plays, M-hall turns into a big bed for them. It 's like a second home, but you don't get yelled at by your mother to keep it clean It keeps some of the best memories forever cherished throughout the years.

Not only has it kept memories alive, but it's also made new ones. M-hall is the hall where trying out for· performances, chairs and parts makes way for creating the music that we all loved and enjoyed at basketbaU and football games. M-hall added to the sounds of our lives.

big sounds

The walls in M-Hall don't talk when S::iutheast's small ensembles are in session. Rather they ring full and clear with the harmonic voices of many talented singers: Knight S::iunds, Counteses and Noblemen, Ars Nova, and Bel Canto.

There is no other sc hoo l with choirs as di verse and distinct in style as S::iutheast's, and our singers are as gif ted and capable as they come. From Lincoh1's only madrigal choir, Bel Canto, to the smooth and classical sounds of our jazz choir, Ars Nova, the choirs make us proud as do the swing choirs, Countesses and Noblemen and Knight S::iunds.

So the next time you're wa lking through M-Hall, open you r ears to the music that flows through the long corridor; listen to the story of hard work, talent, and pride.

The story of M-hall is the story of perfon11ance. When a student walks down M-hall they will encounter everything from actors reading through sc ripts, to techies building sets, and debaters preparing for the next tournament.

The m ain theme in M-hall is spreading a message or sharing a story, either through acting or delivering a speech. Thespians and Thalians (theater honor clubs) work on acting skills as well as putting on Southeast's annual productions. The Forensics team learns effective techniques for composing and delivering speeches.

"M-hall is like a home away from home. The amount of time tha t techies, speechies, actors, and so many othe rs spend in this h allway after school and at night is unbelievable," stated sophomore Rosy Heydt, a member of the Forensics team, a cast member in the fa ll play and the sound designer for the spring musical.

Everyone's talents cari. shine in M-hall and students are given the opportunity to exp lore interests and perfect their talents in singing, debating, acting, or technical production. M-hall is unique from all the rest because it is the home for the perfonning arts.

Honor Students

By Stacy T amerius

Southeast's National Honor Society, known more familiar NHS, is a group of dedicated students who not only have academic standing, but also are involved in both school acti, and the community. To be a part of this distinguished group students : maintain a 3.5 weighted grade point average through all of their semE at Southeast, they must be involved in at least two school activities fc equal length of time and complete five hours of community service J to admittance. In order to apply, students also were required to subm essay about one of the four cornerstones of the organization: scholar~ leadership, service, and character.

Students given this honor have been proud to be recognizec all of their hard work. "I like being a part of NHS because it is natior recognized and looks good on college applications," explained S, Safarik.

Eleanor Wood added, "Good grades are a big part of NHS, it's more of making my family proud."

Abi Shelboum liked "knowing there is a group of people combir their strengths to better the community and having fun doing it."

President of this year's chapter, Jane Tsui said, "Its great being , to intract with students and inspire those who have so much potential While NHS is an invitation-0nly group reserved for seniors, i something that every underclassman can aspire to be a part of during d final year at Southeast. It is an organization that represents Southeast i positive light and a recognition that follows its members for life.

Clubs Finding a niche

By Stacy T amerius

lub d ays h ave long been a tradition here at Southeast, giving students a chance to spend time particip a ting in activities during the school day that relate more to their own particular interests. This year over fifty clubs were offered to students ranging from art clubs to academic re la ted clubs , ethnic clubs , service clubs, and to clubs created purely for fun. With so many different o ptions available, students could easily find a pl ace to fit in, a club tha t they could get invo lved in.

While this year's story includes a twi~t in the plot on the subject of club d ays , students have made the best of the situ ation they were dea lt and have come to look forward to these days as a short break from a typical schoo l day. In the past, club d ays significantly altered schedules as students would miss a regular class in order to a ttend club. But this year, instead of having clubs during cl asses , cl ass times were shortened and two extra club periods were added in during the time saved.

One of the many new traditions instituted during this school year was the addition of a ninth grade club. These clubs met only during first semester and every ninth grader was assigned to one of the clubs. Each ninth grade club was sponsored by a different teacher and assisted by several upperclassmen students. This was a chance for students to get acquainted with their new school and to meet other students in a setting outside the classroom.

Many extraordinary things happen when Knights come together in these clubs: the community gets served, people in need get help, students learn more than they could have ever learned in a class, and if nothing else, friendships get formed as students come together during these times. The halls know that club days are not just an excuse to miss class time or slack off, but they are also an opportunity for students to make a real difference to the school, to the community, and to their fellow club members. That is why clubs have been such a long-standing Southeast tradition.

Key Club also works with students who want to volunteer their time to the community, and also has the mi ss ion to teach its members leadership skills. Some activities they helped out with were the monthly distribution of food at Saratoga for low-income families and the holiday store.

Stressing Creativity

By Sam Hedrick and Hannah Hillis

5ome of the favorite clubs are those which allow the students to stretch their creative minds and think outside of the box. Several of these clubs let students delve further into their favorite hobbies Art, Film, Anime, Photo, and Sudoku clubs all encourage these students to continue in their particular interest. Each of these clubs let students take pursue their hobby in capturing photographs, creating masterpieces, critiquing and enjoying films or trying to figure ou t the Sudoku puzzle.

Without an opportunity like this on club day, many students would not ce able to find sufficient time in their busy schedules to properly pursue these interests, nor would they necessarily receive the encouragement and advice of their fellow club memcers or sponsor.

Students for a

Cause

outh working for a co tmnon cause is the focus of these clubs. Although the cause is sligh t! clifferent for each, they sti ll work hard for what they want to accomplish. The main goal c Students for Peace is to bring together students who only want peace in the world. Throughu L the year they worked on planning the seventh annual Benefit Night, a talent show and art auction hd, to raise funds for a designated world peace o rganization. This year the American Refugee Organizati1)r which helps refugees from war-tom countries, was the organization selected.

Young Democrats is composed of the left wing students of Southeast, or students who ar interested in Democratic politics. They discu ss issues of interest to the Democratic party as well as 6e involved with the Nebraska Democratic Party by doing walk arounds during e lections.

Young Republicans consists of students who tend to have more conservative values. TI1ey al& help with their state party, helping the Nebraska Republican Party to accomplish its goals. Students for Life is composed of students who wish to work for Pro-Life causes.

ne thing that runs through the members of Thespians, Drum Club, and All Male Choir (AMC) is that they are all following a passion through art and expression.

Drum Club members h ave talent ranging from expert like Justin Essink who is in two bands , "Forever T ragic" and "Wayward," to beginners. The club is sponsored by Gene Lessman who puts together different activi ties for the students, like watching movies and playing a variety of percuss ion instruments. Essink said, "I like it because you get to exp ress yourself and show your creativity."

The men in AMC share a commonality with Dnnn Club members in that their talents ranf e, but their passion is equal. They sing a varied style of mu sic and work to keep their tenor and h :ss • voices strong and mature. "We need more men because it' s not as strong as it could be," said junior Sa m Volkmer.

Thesp ians is the oldest of the clubs, and has been around ever since the school started. It differs from the other clubs in that they do more charitable work that encompasses the theatrical arts. Preside t senior Abi Shelboum said, "It 's good we can break outside the box and do things other than just purd y theater st uff so we can promote the arts while doing good for the c01mnunity." The most well-known Thespian project is Trick Or Treat so Kids Can Eat, where they collect sacks offood to donate to the Fo:. <l Pantry. They also help with Saratoga Fun Night by running a booth fo r the elementary students.

So, you could say that Trap Club is basically an intramural sport at school.

Science Olympiad is also somewhat of an intramural "sport" in that students in it compete in a variety of scienr< related events. Freshman Eric Mooring is one of the students in Science Olympiad. Mooring said, "We do several differe: things in there - everything from ecology to tower building." If you like anything aoout science, you can probably find somethir in Science Olymp iad to suit you r taste.

Outdoor Encounter Club is devoted to helping srudents develop an awareness and appreciation for the outdoc and learn basic camping ski lls. Students participate in hiking, biking, and canoe trips all across the Nebraska. Narure Club srudents are involved in caring for the environment, as well. Srudents take walks around the schc and discuss ways to improve the environment and ways that students around Southeast can help in the community.

tudents in Psychology Club explore a rather "mind-boggling" subject. Through service projects , psychology projects and demonstrations, members of the club learn more about the human brain and how it makes people act the way they do. Members of the club also maintain a web page and create a news letter advertis ing their upcoming activities.

In International Club, students host an international breakfast, do a variety of arts and cr af ts, play games from around the world, and listen to guest speakers. Through these activities, students are exposed to a variety of cultures, giving them a taste of places they have never been or may never Set' Medical Club members learn abo ut current health issues and different health careers. Medical Club also hosts an annual blood drive at Southeast. Junior Megen Jarvi s said, "We are a service-ba ,ed group and one of the things we do is the blood drive in the spring."

In Math Club students prepare for and participate in UNL Math Day and the American Mathematics Competition every year by discussing higher level math problem-solving techniques. Jur :or Todd Mooring summed up Math Club by saying, "Basically, we sit around and amuse ourselves v. th math problems." Mooring also said that ski lls learned in Math Club could help him in a future car ~r. Research Club, a new club started this year, allows students to do a variety of long-term resea :ch projects in areas that are of interest to them. In many cases, these projects may last years as students go about finding information. Freshmen Taylor Allen, Joshua Dorval, and Jack Salter are all club meml, TS Dorval is researching alternative human origins. "I save my work online so I can do most of my resea:ch on my own time," he said. A lot of time is required when researching such broad topics as Resea ch Club members do.

ome of the most well known clubs that Southeast offers to students are Fellowship of Christi: Athletes, Athletic Club, Campus Life, and Leadership club.

Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA) allows students with similar beliefs to come toget h and enjoy friendly athletic competition while keeping in mind the principles of Christianity. Athletic Club supports all Southeast athletics and sponsored such things as the halftime shooto1J during basketball games where members of the Southeast student section tried their luck at making sh e for prizes.

Leadership Club focuses more on the qualities of a leader and what it takes to become a posi t, , role model to those around you.

At meetings we talk abo ut car improvements and comparissons and look at new cars Said senior Cliff Trehearn, "Car club is fun because it' s a small grou p and you can do more hands on things ." In Sci-Fi club, the sky is the limit. Watching movi and discuss ing them is what brings the club together, fr o m "The M a trix" to "Star Trek. " Accordini:, to fr es hman Tyler White, "I just like what the club is abo ut."

Fishing club has always been a popular club among Southeast stu dents. Experience o r knowledgt. isn't necessaril y required of these members, only an interest in fishing. R ocket club brings toge the, people with an interest in rockets and they spend time, amon g a variety of o ther things, buildinic: rockets.

!t houg h many positive things have happened this year, our nation has also suffered its share of sadness. On 0 2005 , Rosa Parks passed away at t he age of 9~ Parks played an important ro le in the civi l rights movement · Parks was sent to jail when she refused to give up her seat in the black section of a segregated bus to a white man. Even h the man was a member of the same civil rights group as Parks, the simple act of going to jail started a ooycott of the entire transportation system until segregation of the busses stopped. West Virginia was shaken by the death of 12 trapped coal miners at the Sago Coal Mine. Thirteen miners were reported after an explosion in the mine. After less than two days of searching, one miner was found Hope surgf:d into the families the missing coal miners, the search and rescue team, and the thousands of people across the nation lending their prayers to finding missing men By midnight oo Tuesday, January 3, 2006 a mere 41 hours after the miners were reported missing, families of miners received incomplete information passed off of cell phone conversations, saying that the men had been found alive. It broadcast to millions of Americans that the final 12 missing men had been found alive. Papers were printed for the next day ed with headlines of the miracle in West Virginia.

for decades, S]X)rts have teen a large pan of the story to ld in each chapter of Lincoln Southeast. This year is no different with spectacu lar performances y te ms and individuals in all kinds of sports. Sports tell a large part of the story of many students at Linco ln Southeast. In fact, last year 552 Knights participated in at least one sport - that's one in three students . Many of those compete in two sports and several play a sport each season. In many cases, these athletes ar e also in volved in other schoo l activities ranging from plays and choirs to DECA and Student OJunci l. They are also su ccessful in the classroom. Nearly half of the 552 athl et es h ad a GPA of 3 .5 or better, which qualified them for a Scholar Athlete Award. Half of these maintained a 4 .0 or better.

J/f there's one thing tha t can be said aoout the Varsity foo tball team this year, it' s tha t they improved, game af t er game. The season st ar ted o ut roc ky for the Knights, but after a majo r victory o ve r Lincoln Hi gh a t the H o m ecoming game, they h ad a new-fo und mo tiva tio n that carried them thro ugh the res t of the season. Junio r Steve Schaff er sa id , "W e stru gg led on o ffen se a t fir st, but the H o mecoming game was a boos t of confid ence. " Tiu s confidence c a rried the team all the way to the pl ayoff s, which was the tea m 's goa l fr o m the beginning, according to Sc haffer.

Luckily , t h e loss a t the o pening gam e against C reighton Prep did n o t fo res h adow the res t of t h e season. "We fl at o ut weren ' t ready to d o wha t we needed to d o ," said seni or M a tt Hu ss "Being ready ma tters a t Di stricts."

students filed back into school to start a brand new year, many athletes found themselves heading ack to another fa miliar place during the fall. They knew that as the new year came they would find th emselves busy not only with homework and all of their new cl asses but also busy outside learning and practicing the game offootball. On the football field they developed friendships as well as their football skills and techniques. This year's Junior Varsity football team was no exception. The JV team spent the majority of the fall practicing and training for competition.

"It was hard this year. I was always at practice or a game. I never had free time, it seemed. O:iach Caster is such a character, though, so it made it fun," stated sophomore Ryan Burns. Burns played fo r the reserve, junior varsity, and varsity football teams.

Junior Dan Reighert took away from the season an impro vement in techniques and the fundamentals of football. "We always just made plays up on the spot. At JV we work mor e technique, varsity we are out to win," add Rei ghert "We had a good season."

"I wish we wouldn't have given up so easily when we were down. We just gave up," said sophomore Alex Barg.

The Junior Varsity team still played with a lot of heart and when the season and the fall came to an end each of the players walked away with a deeper appreciation for the game and some new-found friendships. J u N I 0 R V A R s I T y

Forward Pass to the Future

incoln Southeast's footbal l teams are known for their talent and, mo re importantly , their love for the game

All the teams work h ard, and put numerous hours and days practicing and swea ting, but don't recieve equal recognition.

Although the reserve and freshmen teams may n ot have got ten the same crowd turnout as the two aider teams, they focus more on building their skills and betteting their game for when that time comes.

"I think at Southeas t you are mo re competitve and try to play on a higher level. We struggled as a team, we grew as a team, and I think we are bette r prepared," sta ted sophomore Montana Jones . Sop h omore Brian Wood sai d, "Southeast h as a lot more intense and different coac hing sty le than when I used to play midget football." Many on the team feel that with a little work in the weight room and some more practice, their varsity years wi ll be nothing short of outstanding.

While they are looking forward to the future, they still kept a present mindset and by focusing. Both teams ended up wimling games and becoming better teams The boys built friendships and worked hard during practices so tha t they would be able to succeed in their games

"I made a lot of new friends thanks to football and I'm going to play next year just for that if not totally for the game. For freshman Nick Brophy, "It was a great experience."

He's the Distance

She's going for speed

By Erin Dolan

o m any athletes, running two or three miles is a pretty good work o ut , but to a member of the Southeast Cross Country team, that would just be a wann-up. Junio r runner Quinn McCreight stated, "You know that you're a cross country runner when you combine words like 'six mile run' and 'easy' in the same sentence." T o these a thl etes, C ross Country isn't considered just a sport ; it turns into a hobby. Twelve or more hours a week, these high sch ool students are committed to rwming and being a member of the S.E.X.C. (Southeast Cross Country) team. "Being a part of Cross Country, you don't just make friends, yo u create a team! You get so close to the people you run with because of the common suffering yo u go through together," junior Nate Bond explained.

"We just love to run!" exclaimed Varsity runners, seniors Co lton Meyers, Sarah Safarik, Jane T sui and juniors Quinn McCreight and Nate Bond.

"Even tho ugh there ar en't crowds of people cheering you on , the gratification comes in self-esteem, knowing you can endure the pain for 17 or 18 minutes," senior C liff Cessna exp lained. What else describes the team as a whole? One word: "SPAGHEm !" senior Sarah Safarik immedi ately blurted o ut. At every cross country spaghetti feed, pounds and pounds of spaghetti were devoured by these dedicated rwmers. H owever, when you saw a group of them walking d own the hallway, they sti ll seemed to look like toothpicks.

"In Cross Country you may start off a race alone, but you end up finishing with you r teammates," sop h o more Katie Nelson said In the end, the team completed another successfu l season as they were able to send many runners to State with the girls finishing a mong the top schools in the district.

ennis is a game of endmce hand eye coordination and instinct. Junior Alex Dolson, a two year starter on the varsity football team, took an opportunity to play tennis this year because he sustained an injury that wouldn't allow him to play football.

"I basically played tennis because I was injured so football was out of the question. I just tried to stay in shape," he said

Dolson also added that he liked the practices more than anything else. "Hitting balls at coach Lessman and Eric Clymer was pretty fun," he noted.

Freshman Justin Tolston had goals for next year. "I just wanted to play and try something new. I have played tennis recreationally and I just wanted to start getting into sports at Southeast."

"One of the matches I will look forward to next year will definitely be against Lincoln East," said freshman John Rutford. "I think if I would have attended more of the practices I probably would have done better I think I finished around .500 even for the season."

Second year coach Gene Lessman said he thought his team finished strong taking second at the city tournament.

"State next year will have some really great matches; there is always room from improvement" said Lessman.

The memories that these boys share go far beyond the meets; freshman Mitch Somach remembers the trips to away games fondly. "We have dance offs in the van. Junior Ted Stuckey is always the rapper and T esmer's the judge."

"There's a tennis tradition when every time we pass the Platte River we throw tennis balls off the bridge," Stuckey recalled.

This year's playful and diverse team, with ages ranging from freshman to senior, played hard and won enough meets to gain the confidence needed to move into next season with positivity.

But most importantly, they h ad enough fond memories of friendship and competitive van dance offs to make a positive impact on the players , and not just on the scoreboard.

Muma agreed, "Southeast varsity tennis next year without a doubt, wi ll be a force to reckon with . We are looking to have a great season next year with Stokke, Fordham, Stuckey and myself coming back."

fnp rovement was certainly a goal well met for this year's varsity t ~ lleyball team. Fro m las t year's rebuilding year the girls were able to win severa l games and have fun at the same time. Senior captain sten Fos ter called the team "kooky, fun, driven and cooperative."

"Beating Southwest was g r ea t , " junior M egan Statton remembered. "We a ll cried." T11e season ended in the final round of districts with a record of 14-1 7 H o me games were the all-around favorite because the c heerlead ers, band and fans' support all a ccompanied the games. "Th at ju st made it m o re fun, the energy goes way up," Statton exp lained

The season hi ghlight win against Southwest was early in the season, but ot her moments, including energetic bus rides and enjoya ble team dinners (the most memorable one h osted by senior Emily Larson), helped to strengt h en th e relationships between the team and ma ke fo r a f rn1 season.

Kaitlin Voelker, the stu dent man age r, said, "This year's girls m ade for a great time."

With abo ut half the team re turning from las t year , they were a lready fami li ar and comfor table wit h eac h o ther. This was also partly because some of the gi rls on the team started playing YMCA volleyball toget h er when t h ey were around eight years old. It did not take long fo r those who were n ew to find their niche. This year's team, though it lacked a winning record, was successful in other things that matter: a strong team bond, fun , improvement , and lo ts o f hard work.

Victorious Knights

llaying volleyball for Southeast means more t han just p." putting on a unifom1 and doing your thing on the court. For the JV volleyball team, playing for the Knig h ts meant being able to represent the schoo l that means so much to them. Junior Mikaela Kleeb put it this way, "All athletes take pride in what they do, but being able to represent my school means so much."

Overall, the season was a success. "I loved it!" said freshman Emily Goans. "There were so many new experiences and challenges. It was a big step up from what I was used to, but I had fun!" With two freshmen and four sophomores on the team, there were plenty of new people to meet and be comfortable playing with. "My favorite part of the season was getting to know everylxx:ly," said sophomore Makaela Henning "We started off rough in the beginning but then ended up improving and doing really well."

Reserve found the the same luck with a reco rd of 13 - 5. These girls had an amazing season, not only did they play great as a team but they also got to know eachother on every level pose sible. Unfortunately it didn't start out this way, freshman Jaydon McDonald stated that "in the beginning we were hanging out with just the people we knew."

After the first couple of weeks these girls started to get to know each other and became great friends. Sophomore Nikki Jacobsen said, "I loved the pre-game dinners, they were always a blast!"

Sophomore Christina Cane stated, "It was a great season and one I'll remember for a lifetime."

As freshmen make their way into the high school atmosphere, the freshman volleyball team has already learned what it means to be a Knight, and has found a rival. "My favorite part of the season was beating Southwest!" said Elena Hoff. The others agreed.

Throughout their season, the girls got to know each other both on the court and off. "I thought we did pretty well this season," said Alicia Steggs. "We have bonded as a team and most of my closest friends are from the volleyball team." TI1ey went out for volleyball because they all had a love for the game, but they also realized what it means to be a Knight. As Claire Mueller put it, "Playing volleyball meant that I'd be part of the Southeast volleyball program, be a factor in our season, and represent Southeast's underclassmen in athletics."

f there is one word to describe this yea r' s boys varsity basketball team it's "seniority." With nearly all seniors on the team, many returning for a second year on the varsity team, there's no wonder why the team made it to State this year.

Senior Matt Hill said the chemistry among the team members "helped us through a lot of victories, but another driving factor was the fans. At the Black Out, the schoo l spirit helped us play well and showed how dedicated our student body re all y is," Hill explained.

Pl ay in g in the Greater Nebraska Shootout in Omaha was a new experience for the team.

Sop h omo re Nick Schleich, the youngest member on the team and one of the few non-seniors, said, "It was cool playing at the Qwest Center because it prepared us for the State T oumament:"

Senior Josh Arter's most memorable moment this year was, "when Hill smashed on Omaha Bryan."

"This year, we played better than we ever h ave as a te a m!" stated junior Mike Masin by Erin Dolan , Cliff Cessna and Jenna Marshall

Superstitions like these played a big part in freshman T aylor Price's game. But he had a favorite highlight of the season. "Beating Southwest was amazing because we're such big rivals with them and it was just cool to know that we beat them."

For the freshman boys basketball team, the season was average but overall it was fun. Freshman Ben Gantz said, "My favorite memory of the season was when we went to Derek Dunn' s house after a game one night and boxed each other."

I~- he vmsity ghl's basketbal l team is a stmy of friendship. "My favorite thing abo ut playing basketball at Southeast would h ave to be th e great friendships I have made while competing throughout the season," said senior Amanda Byleen, whic h is a gocxi thing, considering these girls are together nearly every day for the winter months of the baske tbal l season.

Half of this yea r 's team consisted of underclassmen, including three freshmen. "O:msidering how young we are, o ur season has been very successful," said sop h omore Katie Birkel. "We h ave improved a lot and we work h ard and h ave fun together."

Motivation and the dri ve to play cam e easy for these girls as well. From the love of the game, to the competition, the bus trips, and the team comraderie nothing was going to stop them. "I just love to play sports," said senior Stacie Hubl. "I've been involved with sports since I was little. "

Asked if there were any downsides to playing basketball, junior Megan Statton d ecided, "Well , h aving to do homework afte r practices o r bus trips wasn't fun, but it was worth it. TI1e season was a lot of fun and a success!"

; _ ,rroughout the season the junio, va,,;ity,ceserve, and freshmen girls basketball teams strived for unity on and off the court. The girls worked to become a team by spending not only every practice together but as much time off the court as possible together. •

"Our season went very well. We did well on the court and also tried to spend lots of time together," said junior Vedrana Soldo. But spending lots of time together wasn't always great. "Bad practices where people were in a bad mood and it doesn't go well wasn't exactly what you would call fun ," added Soldo

" Also, when a teammate says we aren't good and we really work our hardest to become great," said freshman Alexa Cooper, talking about the downfalls of being together constantly.

But on the upside , all three teams created tons of memories together. " We met people we wouldn't typically talk to," stated Cooper. Some of the best memories occured during practices, usually at the expense of the players.

"Whenever Sarah Wilson played defense she would stick her butt out and hop up and down ," laughed Cooper. Soldo added , "Chloe [Reinwal<;i] was clumsy and fell constantly at practice just by tripping over her own feet."

mrestling isn't just about Half Nelsons, Cradles and all of the other fun wrestling tenns that we haven't heard before. It is also about sportsmanship, meeting people anJ growing relationships while having fun and being competitive.

1l1e wrestlers have to go through vigorous training and diets that change their weight and metabolism. It 's everything from running daily to watching what you eat, and still trying to be healthy and able to wrestle. All of this concentration allows . the wrestlers to make their scheduled weight divisions.

These weight divisions are very important too; they let a wrestler know that he has done a good job and can wrestle in the upcoming meet. "I love wrestling because it is a good way to get into shape and not even know it. I'm doing something I love," said junior Dan Stalder.

Making a splash

Jfntensity, anxiety, fear, and motivation. It may sound like your stereotypical male sport, but swimming and diving is much more. Consider the freezing conditions of the water you're competing in. It rushes through and past your body in forceful waves. Every move is one calculated to shed seconds off your time. You've got other racers on each side of you, and a fear of them passing you com es in.

Senior N ate West said," Swimming is o ne of the hardest sports to train for, and it's a challenge. I swim for the challenge, and for the competition."

All the detennination, the improvements, and even the losses help you to excel. The crowd involvement adds a great atmosphere to each meet. The intensity can compare to any other sport

One of the biggest times in the boy's swinmling and divin g season is State, where some of the best come to fl a w1t their competitive drive and spirit. It's what all the acc umul ation of their individual and team effort stands for. To put it simply , take after freshman Dylan Nelson who stated, "It is one of my favorite sport s."

Sophomore Steven Ebers explained, "The team and the practices would not wait for you. If you were serious abo ut improving and making a clifference for the team, yo u would have to give it your all five or six days a week, even if you were tired, sore, or sick." By Jordan Howen

yTIvcraging a decade of experience made the varsity baseball team anything but average After overcoming a bumpy start accented by a tough loss delivered by cross-city rival Southwest, the varsity boys stepped it up a notch and started living up to their full potential. By putting an emphasis ori unity , they overcame their downfalls and proved it's possible to accomplish anything you set your mind to.

The beginning of the season was plagued with "too many rainouts and extreme workouts," said junior Alex Dolson. A gigantic snowstonn dumped over afoot of snow on Lincoln and in the process thoroughly soaked the practice fields and sent the baseball teams to indoor facilities Despite h aving their parade "snowed" upon, the players made the best of their situation.

"It was frustrating because of the snow and rain but it was fun just hanging out with the guys during practice," said junior Steve Schaffer. Dolson agreed that "being with friends and winning" were the best thing alx1ut this season. Success o n the field was also a favorite aspect of the game for many players.

"Dominating lesser teams was my favorite part," said Dolson.

"Winning is the best thing about playing," said junior John Kampfe.

The varsity team had a large fan base and many players named Kampfe's dad, Steve, as their biggest fan. Dolson added junior Matt Harvey's dad, Von, to the list of biggest fans, while Schaffer named his grandma as his biggest fan, "because she wants to see me succeed and see me have fun," said Schaffer.

Reserve co-captain sophomore Eric Clymer declared that "dominating 1.SW" was what he was looking forward to most this season. For junior varsity player sophomore Nate Cech, beating Southwest just wasn't enough .

"I looked forward to beating Southwest, but even more so I wanted to win city this year," Cech said

"Winning a city title was a huge goal for us. We were a very yoimg tean1 and I definitely looked forward to watching us develop as a team," said junior varsity player sophomore Montana Jones. "Young" was definitely not an understatement for the JV team. Junior Varsity consisted of one junior, four sophomores, and six freshmen, but as the saying goes, age is just a number, and it did not act as a factor in the amount of talent on any of the teams.

TI1e Reserve tean1 had the same frustrating start that Varsity had, with game after game being cancelled or postponed because of the weather. But weather wasn't the biggest complaint for reserve players.

"I absolutely hate conditioning," said reserve player sophomore Lucas Kendle. Other players agreed, but reserve player sophbmore Taylor Darlington named striking out as the worst part about this season. Despite a list of complaints, they found many other things that made the season totally worth it.

"The thrill of the game," was reserve player freshman Ben Gantz's favorite part of playing.

"Catching someone stealing is the best," said Dar lington. "I definitely enjoy baseball and I find it really rewarding," he added.

Like the higher level teams, the freshmen team endured a losing streak at the beginning of the season that seemed like it would never end. But it didn't dishearten the players, who constantly carried varsity coach Rand y Brolhorst's favorite saying of "Git'r Done" close to heart at all times.

"When you're losing a big game and no one has faith that you can come back and win, probably has to be the worst feeling ever," said freshm an Jonah Hamilton. The freshman team had no problem with fans not believing in them and had enough fans at every game to fill all of Southeast's bleachers and send others searching for lawn chairs or the most comfortable patch of grass they could find.

"My mom's my biggest fan. She's always supporting me by coming to all of my games," said JV player junior Sam Ross "She also washes my dirty uniform," he added.

Darlington also named his mom as his best supporter. "She goes to every game and cheers for every player," he said. Other playe rs named good ol' Dad as their biggest fan, and fo r many of them, coach as well.

"My dad basically taught me everything I know about baseball and coac hed me a lot through the years," sa id junior varsity pl ayer sophomore Lucas Hoffman.

VNothing putt fun

loseness and unity were perha ps the most abundant themes of this year's golf progra m. From sharing laughs at team Jinners to spending entire days together at day-long meets, there is n o doubt that this is a close group of girls. Because the entire varsity team were returners from last year, not only did that help with the game , but with their relationships as well.

TI1is year spec ificall y, senior captain Amanda Byleen noticed that "We worked better together as a team this year, we go t closer and that m ade for a better experience." Beca use go lf t ook so much time and the girls of ten spent a full day toge ther , they found themselves helping each ot her with school and problems as well as their game .

The lone freshman player in this year's program, Virginia Murphy, was g lad that go lf a llowed her to meet new peop le and helped ease her into high school. "They are nice and really supporting" she commented about the other girls.

Aggressiveness and determination are what are helping the boys this year in go lf. They' re a ll wanting to make it to state, and if they keep up their good work, they can d o it.

Already this year the boys have become closer to each other, like the gi rls. They suppor t one another during meets against rival sc h oo ls and if someone makes an impress ive hit, so me·of the g uy golfe rs will make comments like "Nice!" o r "111at was am azi n g!" or "It's in the hole!"

Marcus Payne conunented that his teanm1ates would tell him, "Stay Pos itive!"

I'~ he grrls tenni.s season startal off with a slam. The gi,ls team consisted of 26 girls. The team put in a lot of hard work throughout the season. TI1ey practiced five days a week for two hours a day . The girls' tennis team started off practice with some warm up drills to improve certain skills such as serves, ground strokes, and volleys. Then the girls teams competed against each other in challenge matches. These matches detennine spots for teams and can help to detennine what level a rlayer is at.

The girls team was very busy this season. They had eighteen meets to play. The team traveled to places like Fremont, Omaha, and Grand Island. "Something that has been fun is that we have added a talented freshman (Karlee Long) and a foreign exchange student (Carol Kockerbeck) to the mix this year," stated head coach Tim Tidball.

The girls tennis team had a variety of reasons for joining the team. This season is freshman Hattie Ficke's first year. "I never really played much tennis. I joined because I wanted to meet new people, learn the sport of tennis, and set and accomplish goals for myself."

Veteran Brianna Smith stated, "I started tennis to meet new people and I kept playing because the team and the sport is always a good time.

The girls tennis team experience is best summed up by senior Bethany Tallman, "I like the people. We all get along and it's just always fun."

On the right Track

Jf

t al l starts with a h unge r. A hunger and a drive that makes yo u want to try harder , to push your boundaries. In t h e case of T rack & Field, you don't just have that drive, yo u manipulate it to your advantage

The participants in Track & Field are d i vided into different events. We start with the Pole Vault, this event demands that players use their force against a po le to vault over a bar.

Other field events include Discus, Shotput, Long Jump, Triple Jump, and High Jump. Junior Corey Hively, team captain for the throwers, competes in shotput. "I am expected to lead the throwers in practices and meets. It's fun to hang out and compete with other schools and your friends to see just how well you can do," he said. Hively also worked to improve his personal record (PR) throughout the season.

Of course, the most well-known of a ll competitions are the running events: sprints, relays and distance running as well as hurdles, are included From the 200 meter dash to the 3200 meter run, runners find their best events.

On days before meets, workouts are eas ier, but they vary according to the event. For example, relay teams practice hand-offs and runners do shorter distances. Hayley Sutter , junior distance runner, said, "We have spaghetti feeds and pray before meets to help us stay inspired. I enjoy being a part of the team aspect of this sport."

VRacing to the finish line

ach year girls of all heights and sizes try out for the track team. Not everone is gifted at running, that's why there are many options girls can choose from: high jump, long jump, discus, shot put. For some people, running is just another sport, but for the Southeast girls track team, it is life. There is also many option s fo r running: sp rints , distance, and hurdles.

"Distance is really hard but everybody can pull t hrou gh it and get it done," said freshman Ashley Peterson

Sopho more Erin Dolan sa id , " I love track beca u se there are so many new faces yo u see and the distance sq uad is so close!"

The girls work hard during practice but h ow abo ut before? Each day at 3: 15 the whole team does a jog together and then goes to the wrestling room to do an ab workout. After tons of sit-ups, the team breaks up into groups based on their events

The team had a tough begining sco ring point s at the first few me e t s, but in the end everybody ran be s t when it m a ttered most. T akin g a team to the s tate meet is what eve ry coach looks forward to a nd that's what the y did this ye ar h avi n g everyo ne co mpet e th ei r b es t a t the di s tri ct meet to qualify for state

mhat Spanish call Futbol, Italians call Calcioin, Gcm1ans call Fussball , and the French call Footba ll is what we call Soccer in the United States. Starting off the season with several wins, proved this yo ung team could contin ue to strive forth even after losing severall starters to the class of 2005.

"We were a little worried how we would do this year bringing so many underclassmen in on starting positions but everything workout," stated senior Josh Arter.

Soccer isnt just a single season sport. These players consider soccer a year -round sport even though the season for high school may only last three or four months. All of these boys are in summer, indoor, or spirit soccer leagues lasting all year lon g.

"Overall we had a great season, of course everyone has their wins and losses but in the end we played as h ard as we could," explained sophomore Taylor Hunt.

''The thing that always helped lighten up practices was when Brad Moneto would get smacked in the face by a ball," sophomore Jordan Green recalled. "Before every game we would all get together and eat to get focused for upcoming games," he explained.

"This year's team is really cool because a ll the guys are so crazy! They know how to have fun but also there are thoses times where we are all business," explained sop homore Jason Vensky. "There is just something about getting a group of guys together and putting a ball on the ground."

Positioning to Win

Jtworld wide favorite that can be found in our own back yard is soccer, also known as f ootball in Europe. It is a sport of stamina, coordination and teamwork. It is a game of non-stop action and the occas ional sports beverage.

Fres hman Louie Labudda said that his favorite memory was when h e scored on a breakaway. "Th e feeling was great. Scoring my first goal was awsome--it h a ppend so fast, but it's a memory that I wo n 't forget."

Soccer is an intense game. SJme situ ation s can be n ail-biting, down to the wire in a shoot-out or just trying to get that game-tying goal with t ime winding down.

Junior keeper Greg White knows a ll abo ut pressure dealing with soccer. "I have been playing since I was seven but I used to play offense, but then coming into high sch oo l I wanted som ething a httle bit more challenging than just running up and down tl1e field so I took the chance to play keeper indoors and it all started there. I have a love - h ate relationship with the game. SJme days I can sh utout a team, others I let a couple roll by h1e, but that's what the game's all abo ut ."

alftime comes around and the crowd is energetic from the thrilling competition that is breaking at the half. The players leave the field or court and on come the Shirettes or Step Chain to take their tum at entertaining the crowd. Each group has its own strengths, goals, and purpose , but bot e successful in what they do, and never fail to rev up the crowd.

The Shirettes, the school dance team, continued their long tradition of excellence by once a6 1in making the ttip to Nationals in Rorida, dancing their way to number one overal l, bringing home another trophy to go alongside all the ones from previous years. They spent the year practicing hard, working up a sweat and finding the consistent group coordination that makes each of their dances look so great. Seni or Ella Kay said of the year overall, "We surpassed the goals we set in terms of improving skills, winr,.in g Nationals, and building friendships."

Step Chain finds their rhythm in stomps and claps as they move about and keep a beat g mg. Performing a longside music mixes the steppers like to find a unique approach to each rourine and spend much time practicing so that their performance turns out the best it can be. Step Chain has stomped t h eir way into becoming a real crowd pleaser during pep rallies and basketball games alike.

D on't Spend it All in One Place

by Cliff Cessna

Jff there's one thing that tells the story of the life of a teenager in high school, it's the places they shop and the things they buy. With the money they earn at their job or swindle out of their parents, high school students invariably find more ways to spend money than they can afford.

Of course, high prices of gasoline don't help in making the dollars go farther. With prices climbing up to and over $3.00 a gallon, a larger portion of money was spent on getting from point A to B. Aside from that, entertainment and food were where most money got spent.

In many cases, wherever you find students spending money on entertainment, food is also a part of the tale: Listening to music on your iPod and drinking coffee at the Mill while you study. Going to a movie and eating popcorn, candy, and pop. Playing video games with friends while devouring pizza from your favorite pizzeria.

In the age of the iPod and the melodious cell phone, students seemed intent on keeping up with the latest in personal technology. Instant messages, instant photos, instant music. It was all here in the world of the iPod.

Then there's the other side of the story. Businesses appreciate and depend on the patronage of students who keep coming back for more. To get their name out there, they have to advertise. What better place to do it than right here in the storybook of high school students?

And so if you are a graduating senior looking for a summer job to help pay for college, an incoming senior looking for a place to get your senior pictures done, an experienced junior trying to decide where to eat lunch, or an incoming sophomore trying to find the best place to meet friends over the summer, you've found where to look. Happy spending!
