APRIL 25, NELSON H. KOBREN MEMORIAL GYMNASIUM-- Churchill. It is a word with many associations for Blair's varsity boys' volleyball team, a word that conjures up memories of last season's bitter third-round playoff loss and reminds the Blazers that they were not the only team in the county with an undefeated record coming into this game. And for the biggest home crowd of the season, it was a word that meant that Blair was about to play its toughest and most exciting game all season, a match-up between two county powerhouses that may well indicate the course of the post-season bid for the county title.

At first it seems like a typical action movie. Secret service agents, gunfights, terrorism, plot twists, it has all the elements. But beneath the surface, "The Interpreter" is a gritty thriller, one that doesn't shy away from the complicated and brutal politics of its subject, postcolonial Africa, and one that explores raw human relationships to the fullest extent.

The last step for most draftees is usually the combine, which is a chance for most players out of college to prove themselves in front of National Football League (NFL) scouts. Usually the combine does not have as great an impact on the futures of collegiate football players because scouts are also aware of their past three or four years competing at the college level but a solid outing does not hurt. However in the case of Maurice Clarett who has not played as much in college, the combine is the best way to judge his talent.

So far this season, the varsity boys lacrosse team has met their fair share of difficult opponents. When they went up against county rival Springbrook, the team lost 15-2. The typically shoddy Einstein squad was one goal away from tying the Blazers in a disappointing 3-4 match. However, perhaps the most oppressive competitor that the team has come to face is within the structure of the team as the Blazers have struggled to keep team mentality, and numbers, up.
