All of our three teams will have pink socks and pink wrap... and look for the pink ribbon painted on the field. “We just want to show support for a great cause,” adds Coach Ken Duilio. “Cancer Awareness month hopefully brings more attention to a disease that affects all of us. We will wear pink with pride!” WILSON STUDENTS KEEP BLOCK PRINTING ART ALIVE THANKS TO CHARLES F SURENDORF II ART FOUNDATION Marie Pearson, Wilson Art Teacher is thrilled to announce that Cindy Surendorf is doing a two-week block printing workshop in the Draw-Paint-Print classes at Wilson. Cindy is the Executive Director of the Charles F Surendorf II Art Foundation. Her father is Charles Surendorf, a WPA artist during the Great Depression and was among the top block print artists of the 20th century. Cindy uses her father's work to discuss societal issues (such as racism, poverty, and heath) that were present during the Great Depression and how many of these problems are still present today. Students choose a contemporary problem and create a block print that presents a solution. Her foundation provides all of the supplies for the workshop. There is no cost to the school. The workshop is scheduled for October 1 through October15 for the four sections of Draw-Paint-Print.

    SPORTS TUESDAY, OCTOBER 8, 2013 Federer already looking forward to ‘great’ 2014 BEIJING: Looking back is a waste of time, as far as Roger Federer is concerned. While tennis fans and pundits are obsessed with his below-par performance at the four majors this year which has left him in danger of missing the cut for the season-ending ATP finale for the first time since 2001, Federer has already put a positive spin on his 2013 trials and tribulations. “I always knew that this year, after a very tough year in 2012, the Olympics (and winning Wimbledon), was going to be a bit more quiet,” the Swiss told reporters in Shanghai on Monday after winning his first- round doubles match with little-known Chinese Zhang Ze. “I expected myself probably not to be as suc- cessful and as busy playing matches and tourna- ments. “My mindset now is, okay, next year is going to be a great year again where I’m not going to have that many points to defend, espe- cially at some very key moments where I consid- er myself a favorite. “For that reason I’m really looking forward to 2014 already.” Federer, who won the last of his record 17 grand slam titles at SHANGHAI: Gael Monfils of France hits a return to Tatsuma Ito of Japan during their first Wimbledon 15 months ago before scooping a sil- round match of the Shanghai Masters tennis tournament. — AFP ver at the London Games, went through the 2013 season without reaching a major final for Roger Federer Isner rallies to beat the first time since 2002 and his only success has been at the low-key Halle tournament.

  • Inside USA Gymnastics
    inside USA gymnastics It has been wonderful to see current and former national team athletes continue to excel on various stages. Not only are they world-class in their sport, but many of these athletes also represent outstanding ambassadors and role models each and every day. If you watched the NCAA Championships for men and women, you most likely recognized many national team members in the spotlight. On the women’s side, 2004 Olympic Silver and Bronze Medalist Courtney Kupets helped guide her University of Georgia team to its fifth consecutive team title. Courtney also won the all-around and at least shared a portion of three of the four event titles, plus won the Honda Award for the second time. Other former national team members who finished top three in the all-around or on an event at NCAA Championships were Susan Jackson, Carly Janiga, 2004 Olympic Silver Medalist Courtney McCool, 2006 World Championships team member Ashley Priess and Cory Hartung. At the men’s NCAA Championships, Oklahoma’s Steven Legendre won the all- around and two event titles, while Glen Ishino, Paul Ruggeri, Chris Brooks, Tim Gentry, and Thomas Kelley also placed in the top three in a variety of events. 2008 Olympic Team members Justin Spring, Kevin Tan and David Durante were coaches for Illinois, Penn State, and Stanford, respectively, with Stanford winning the men’s team title. Spring was recently named associate head coach for the Illini. Check out this issue for full coverage of both the men’s and women’s NCAA Championships, as well as the USA Gymnastics Collegiate Championships.
