INDOOR TRACK MEETS TAKE CCHS RUNNERS TO THE OLYMPIC OVAL

JAYDEN LOESER
STAFF WRITER


     Indoor track is already coming to an end and they have had two exciting meets at the Olympic Oval. The Olympic Oval is one of the best indoor tracks around because of its large track around a speed skating oval. This is nice because this prevents it from getting too hot. It also has really high ceilings while most indoor tracks are only half length with lower ceilings. This facility was originally built to house the Olympics. 
    Their first indoor race was a couple weeks ago (Feb 4) and most of the runners ran the 3200 meter and some of the sprinters ran the 400 meter.  Tate Kjar was one of the few from corner who ran the 400, taking second overall with a 51.15. In the 3200 meter Carter Cutting ran a 9:27 taking fourth overall.
​     Other honorable mentions from that race may consist of: Eli Kimball - 9th place, Jayden Loeser - 16th place, Connor Whatcott - 18th place. Of the girls who ran the 3200, Lindsey Glod took third, Paige Rhoades took fourth, Anna Nelson took fifth, and Avery Hartey took sixth. 

     The second indoor race was last week (Feb 11) with runners in the 60, 200, 400, 800, and 1600 meter races. Honorable mentions from each would be Tre Kofe and Harrison Taggart placing seventh and eighth in the 60m, Cody Strong taking tenth in the 200m, Tate Kjar taking twelfth, Carter Cutting won the 800m and took second in the 1600, Jackson Henstrom took fifth in 1600m. On the girls side, Sunny Meyers took fifteenth in the 60m and eleventh in the 200m and Paige Roades took fifteenth in the 1600 meter race. ​
     As indoor is coming to an end we have quite an eventful track season coming up with a couple races in St. George and one in California for those who qualify. I asked Jackson Henstrom what he was looking forward to this coming season “... to hopefully winning a state championship and winning the 2 mile.” The track team has a lot of big goals this season. It starts on March 1st and anyone is welcome to join!

Meet the Captains: CHarger Swim Edition

PictureAll of Corner Canyon's swim captains, 2021-2022.
    Being the captain of your sports team is a really huge honor, as well as responsibility. Especially when it comes to our very own swim team here at corner canyon. This is what senior’s Ashlin Richardson, Ashton Brunt, and Kail Smith, and junior’s Brandon Smith, Lily Afuela, Jaxson Barlow, and Reagan Winget have come to learn this year.
    Kail Smith, senior and swim captain, explains that you have to be asked to be a swim captain at the beginning of the year, and that they pick the most dedicated juniors and seniors to do the job, based on their performances during summer practices.
     In order to be asked to be a captain on the swim team, I’m not kidding when I say you have to be dedicated to the sport. Ashlin Richardson, senior and swim captain, tells us that “Swim has been my life for the past four years, and despite a lot of injuries, tears, and terrible practices, I love it!” Anyone who knows Ashlin knows her schedule is completely packed with swim training, all of the time.
    Being a captain makes being on the swim team even more work than it already is. Brandon Smith, junior and swim captain, explains that ”I support the team emotionally and manage the publicity as well as help the coach sometimes.” The amount of work can really add up!
    If you know any of these captains, tell them congratulations on all of their hard work this season, and good luck at their state competition which is happening this weekend. Stay tuned to find out how the chargers did!

​

Get excited for the 2022 girls lacrosse season! There are going to be some changes to the upcoming season such as… new faces, new coaches, and new brackets for state. The girls lacrosse team lost some amazing seniors last year but they are preparing for new freshmen. There will be some new faces to the coaching staff this season for the JV team, Emme Laro and Lexi Burns are super excited to join the family and coach the JV team this year. Lauren Ackerman & Eliza Jorgensen will be returning this year to assist head coach Matthew Kenning in coaching the Varsity team. There are no more A B C bracelets this season, now all schools will play under classifications, 6A, 5A, 4A. 
The girls are working really hard to prepare for the upcoming season. I predict that this will be a really strong year for the girls lacrosse team at Corner Canyon with the new captains Maura Henry and Simone Parker and with how hard they are working this pre-season. Quote by Head Coach Matthew Kenning on the upcoming season “I am very excited for this season. We have more depth than in prior years and this looks like our most athletic team yet. We lost some key seniors but have some awesome freshmen coming in and returning players that are ready to step up. We will be a contender for our region and the 6A state title!”. The girls lacrosse team is coming out strong this year, be prepared for some great game scores and amazing highlights reported to the Corner Canyon Chronicle this season.

State Individual Championships Rankings
    After so many amazing victories this year, the Corner Canyon Boys Golf Team ended the season with a bang. The team is coached by Coach Derek Fox. Derek Fox is a local business owner, who operates and owns Impact Golf Center in Draper, a golf instructor, and a master club fitter & builder. Through his leadership, the team was able to place 10th at the National High School Invitational at Pinehurst Resort in North Carolina this summer. This season, the team was also able to win the region championships. After months of hard work and winning, Corner Canyon was given the incredible opportunity to compete at Boys Golf State Championship at Davis Park.

Girls volleyball seasonal tournament

​     The girl's volleyball season started on the 19th of August and while they came out with a rough start, they have certainly been able to bounce back. Their first win of the season was at their fifth game against Mountain Ridge, the newest school built in Herriman. Out of the 17 games they had this season, before the volleyball tournament held on Friday, they had only won 5 of the 17. 
The first part of the girl's volleyball tournament was held in our very own Charger Arena on Friday the 8th, being separated at two different times. The first game was held at 3 and was against Bishop Manogue Catholic High School in Reno, Nevada. Throughout the first round of the game against the Bishop Manogue Miners was neck to neck; The Chargers won 26-21 in the first 23 minutes. The second round was also a close game because the Bishop Manogue Miners were in the lead for the majority of the time before our team caught up. The Chargers won the second round of the first tournament game with a 25-22 win.
     The next tournament game later that day at 7, the Chargers faced Springville High School’s Red Devils. During the first set of that game, the Chargers remained in the lead for the majority of the time. They won the first round against the Red Devils with a nine-point lead of 25-16. During the second round of the game, the Chargers fell behind the Red Devils, becoming neck and neck towards the end of the set, and surpassing them with a win of 25-20.
     
​     The second part of the volleyball tournament took place on Saturday, the 9th of October. The Chargers went against the Bonneville High School Bees from Idaho Falls, Idaho. The game against the Bees was separated into 4 sets, 3 of which Corner Canyon won, the other was won by Bonneville High. The second of the three games held on Saturday was against Madison High School from Rexburg, Idaho. The first two sets of the game were one by the Madison Bobcats, and the next two sets were won by the Chargers. The game went into the fifth set in which Corner Canyon won 15-8. The third and final game of the tournament was played against Copper Hills from West Jordan. The game had 3 sets, in which the Grizzlies won 2 and the Chargers won 1, ending with them losing the game.

     Though the girls lost the final tournament game against Copper Hills, they still had a major improvement. On Friday, their win rate of the season was a 29.4% success rate. At the end of the tournament (only 2 days), the percentage grew to a 43.5% win rate. The head coach, Coach Ricks, said, “...They had improved every game. By the Copper Hills game, who are the first in the state right now, they only lost by three points.” We would love to see how the girls do in the end and future seasons.

Girls soccer senior night was a raging success

On Thursday, September 30, Corner Canyon girls soccer had its senior night. The girls were playing American Fork, here at Corner Canyon.  A goal was scored by Ainsley Bowers in the first half of the game. An American Fork player ended up scoring a goal as well, so the game went into overtime. The overtime was split into two 10 minute halves, playing according to golden goal (meaning the first goal scored wins the game.)  No one scored during either of the 10 minute halves, so it went to penalty kicks. Usually there are five penalty kicks, and whichever team has scored more of the five wins. However, in some cases there isn’t a need for all five penalty kicks, because one team scores enough that the other team cannot catch up. At this game, they shot 4 penalty kicks, and the Corner Canyon girls made all 4. The penalties were scored by Tess Werts, Maggie Hart, Ainsley Bowers, and Elise Jeppson. But enough of the game, let’s get to the seniors!
The seniors this year are Lizzy Johnson, Ellie Jones, Ella Muir, Brielle Peavely, Riley Stevens, Hallie Tripp, Mikayla Zvekan, Sydney Christensen, Tess Werts, Maggie Hart, and the team managers: Megan Jackson and Skye Meyers. The girls have all worked so hard every year that they have been a part of the Corner Canyon soccer team. We’re so proud of seniors and we hope that they have an amazing rest of their senior year.

Mountain Biking Makes the other teams Bite Dust

Headline News Editor
​

    
If you’ve ever had a friend on the mountain biking team you know how busy they are. They’re out of town almost every single weekend during race season and still have practices all week long! This is what our mountain biking team (which is known for being THE LARGEST high school team in the country, by the way!) has been doing this fall. Nils Haugen, senior on the team, got out of this insane time commitment early when he hurt his wrist at disco night. “I haven’t been able to race due to a recent injury, but I was super proud of my teammates, they did a real bang up job.”

    The most recent tournament happened in Price this weekend. It was actually one of the last tournaments of the year because it was the regional championship. Walker Dunbar, senior, said about this race, “Speed is fast in Price.” “Speed is fast” is a term used often by the Waldorf Development team, of which Walker and Nils are both apart of, and it is an elite group of mountain bikers from our school. They have an instagram where they give both serious and very fun updates on mountain biking races, so give them a follow at @waldorfdevelopmentteam !
    Usually, the state of Utah is divided into 4 regions: north, east, south, and west, and each region only competes against each other throughout the year. But now, whoever wins all of these regional championships will go on to compete against each other.
   The course our chargers are competing on for the state championship coming up is St. George, and is much less rough and bumpy than the ones they are used to practicing. So, we expect them to do well. Paul Harrison, senior, says he’s excited for state because “it’s fun to compete with a bunch of different people in a friendly competition, whom I will destroy utterly.” Everyone will compete on the same track, but depending on what level you’re in, you’ll do a different amount of laps.
    Our mountain biking team has brought home the dub before, with an entire case filled to the brim of biking trophies, and we’re rooting for them to do it again this year. Wish your friends on the team good luck as their season this year comes to a close!

Girls tennis season comes to and end...Lets hear the Highlights!!

By Oaklee Ewing
Mind/Body Editor

     The girl’s tennis season at CCHS just came to an end, and their overall win-loss ratio was 1-4. The team’s top player, Sierra Strong, competed for state and played her very best. Unfortunately, Sierra did not move on from State. Aside from that, let’s look at the bright side. After interviewing many of the senior players, here are some of the biggest highlights of the season…
     Presley Germer says that her favorite moment of the season was the team retreat up in Heber.  “It was a great bonding moment and allowed me to create a relationship with every girl on the team!” Katie Shaffer’s big moment was also the retreat. “It’s what really bonded the team from the beginning!” The retreat took place at the end of August, and many pictures posted by the Girls Tennis Team Instagram page really catch a glimpse at the bonding fun! 
     Nara Robertson appreciated the time the team was on the grass cheering for players while “cracking each other’s backs and eating snacks.” Can’t have back problems when you play! 
     Eden Jacobs says her highlight was the team dinners every week, “it was super fun getting to know the girls in a more relaxing environment.”
     The very beginning of the year was a big favorite for Abby Brady because “that’s when you’re getting to know the girls, we just have made a ton of inside jokes and have crushes on boys, region is always super fun because it brings everyone together. Having the different classes mesh together and creating best friends from other grades is so fun.”
     Even if the tennis team doesn’t measure up to the 48 straight wins of the football team, it sure sounds like they have just as much, if not more, fun as anyone else

HEADLINE NEWS EDITOR

     We all know how bad school traffic is if you try to leave right after the bell. But it’s easy to get cheered up by our large cross country team that runs faster than our cars, passing us on the sidewalks almost every day after school! The cross country season is off to a great start, with the team having competed in two meets already. One was last weekend and one happened just barely!
​     Avery H., senior on the team, informs us that “the last meet the boy chargers took the duuuubbbb,” and also said that “we have four more meets leading up to state. We’ve been performing well and training everyday!” Congrats to our chargers for placing first last week, and good luck at the rest of your competitions!
     Jackson H., also a senior on the team, tells us that, “We race again at the Utah pre-state meet on September 16th and are looking forward to hopefully bringing the state championship back to CC soon,” adding “...we are very good.” Show up to the meet on September 16th and later to the state meet to see how good they really are and to support our cross country chargers!

SIDELING SUPPORT FOR GIRLS XC TEAM
BY STEPHANIE GUZMAN DE LA HOZ
STAFF WRITER


     A
s sports start to start up again and school life begins to buzz. One of the sports that most people rarely hear about is cross country. Corner Canyon offers cross country in the fall and track and field in the spring. No one has to try out, they just come, make friends, get better at running, and of course try their best!
     Cross country starts at the beginning of the year and ends October 27th, for the normal season. It is right after school at 2:45 in the north part of the stadium and they have Saturday practices too at 8:00 at the Equestrian Center at Corner Canyon.
     There is also postseason where runners keep running to stay in shape and connect with people in the winter. If you guys want to have some fun, workout, and be part of such a happy fun team, cross country is a sport you can try!               Avery Garcia, Lindsey Glod, and Ava Brinkerhoff all said they loved cross country because they get to meet new people and be part of a supportive community of teammates. Races are every Friday and Saturday depending on the week, so you can either wake up really early or miss half of class, and everyone likes that.                       Everyone is excited for this upcoming season and year, “Seeing the growth of the new athletes as they take on a new sport and find a passion for it. That’s probably the most exciting. Second most exciting thing would be seeing individuals take risks and learn how to be competitive,” states Coach Moody, the head coach of cross country. So come make friends, see what all the hype is, and of course run.

Girls wrestling  join now!!

By: Mele Fager
Picture
“For younger athletes - women, especially, if it's a male-dominated sport - I'd say be very careful to just be true to yourself. I spent a lot of time trying to emulate how a male wrestler was. They're tough, they're very confident, they don't show a lot of emotion, and they push through everything. That's not me at all. I'm a wrestler but I have emotions, I'm sensitive. When I stopped trying to be something that I wasn't, I felt like I was freeing myself up to find ways to make it work for myself.”     -Helen Maroulis
BY MELE FAGER
STAFF WRITER

     Hello women of corner canyon and guys I guess if you're into this, have you thought of taking up a sport but don’t know which?
JOIN GIRLS WRESTLING!!! In my opinion, it's the best sport in the world! Do you want to learn self defense?
     Take wrestling!
     You want to be stronger? Wrestling trains all of your muscles and training is how you get stronger so wrestling's the way to go.
