Final Messages to Underclassman from Seniors With Experience

By Christino Maldonado, Emerson Maldonado and Julio Ramirez

Dear, Freshmen, Sophomores, Juniors, and Super Seniors:

This is to give all of you some advice for your future here at West Hempstead.

1. Focus on your grades! It’s really hard to fail, I promise you that if you put a little bit of effort into your school work you’ll easily be in the 80s. 
2. Save your money. Lots of things to pay for your senior year. No joke you'll need like 1,000 dollars to cover most of the senior year expenses.

Lacrosse isn’t the most popular sport in West Hempstead High School; however, this 2017-2018 lacrosse season was one of high hopes and achievements. Despite the fact that both JV and Varsity were short staffed, they still managed to have a decent season. JV, in particular, was a surprise amongst many.

The Resurgence of Ibrahimovic

by Julio Ramirez, senior reporter

Zlatan Ibrahimovic is a Swedish soccer player who is world class. He suffered an injury in late December of 2017. It was a very serious knee ligament injury that almost threatened to end his career. But he fought his way back through intense rehab and physical therapy for 3 months.

His contract with Manchester United in England was not renewed and he wasn’t sure where he would land until he was signed by the La Galaxy this season. According to Ibrahimovic, he said, “his sights were always with La Galaxy even before he signed with Manchester United.”
