Mambo, Leopards fans? I have returned from my excursions in Africa and am happy to see that my team has been holding its own in conference play. My trip was a great success, filled with many escapades and memorable moments. Below I will detail my adventures and show how my experiences could benefit the Leopards. [...]

Jambo! I hope everyone had a great holiday season and a happy New Year. Hopefully 2012 has plenty of wins in store for the Leopards. Unfortunately, the New Year is going to start off with some bad news from Something Moore. Back in September when I was forced into an early retirement by my everlasting concussion [...]

The question is, if you were to break your leg and never be able to play sports again, what college would you be happiest at? Pondering this question during my prep year at Northfield Mount Hermon, I figured Lafayette’s prestigious academics would be [...]

Where are some red ruby slippers when you need them most? For the past week I have been desperately searching for a pair of them on eBay, because I am pretty much fed up with the weather and need to find a warmer climate. Ever since graduating high school in Austin, Texas, where I lived [...]
