A mock trial competition is run essentially the same as any regular court case and serves two main purposes: to teach high school stu- dents the basic trial practice skills, and to teach students professionalism. Each school has pre- determined student roles as lawyers and wit- nesses on both the prosecution and defense sides. One school participates as the prosecu- tion, and the other participates as defense. This year marks the 27th year that New York State has had a Mock Trial Tournament. Thursday, February 12th, our own Mock Trial team held a scrimmage, in the library, against Sandy Creek.

Arinze Onuaku recorded 16 points. Wes Johnson had a big night as he scored 14 points and pulled down 10 rebounds. Andy Rautins chipped in with 12 points. The bench production was excellent for Syracuse as Scoop Jardine and Kris Joseph each scored in double figures with 16 points apiece. This victory was a great win for Syracuse. As the Orange entered the game they already knew that two of the three teams ahead of them had already lost earlier in the day; the num- ber one ranked Kansas Jayhawks and the number two Kentucky Wild- cats. Kansas fell to Big XII rival and unranked Oklahoma State, 85-77. This loss brought the Jayhawks to 27-2. Earlier in the day Kentucky fell 74-65 to number nineteen Tennes- see, also bringing the Wildcats to 27-2. Both of these teams’ losses came on the road. This makes Syracuse’s rÈsumÈ even better because both of their losses have come at home and it is tougher to win on the road, where the Orange is undefeated in road play this season. Also, number three Purdue played against the tough Michigan State Spar- tans. The Spartans are a good team and in the Boilermakers previous game, they lost star player Robbie Hummel to a torn ACL. This hurt Purdue and as a result they lost 53-44 to the number fourteen Spartans. Syracuse leaped past Purdue, Kentucky and Kansas into the number one spot in the country. On Tuesday night Syracuse played its final home game, which was senior night for Andy Rautins and Arinze Onuaku. The St. John’s Red Storm was in town and Syracuse was not ready to fall off their horse as they handed the Red Storm another tally in the loss column.

  • The 411 Your Information Source
    The 411 Your information source August 16, 2012 From the Superintendent On Going for Gold... If you read the last few issues of The 411, you know what I have been up to this summer and why I am so thrilled to finally be back to work. While I was stuck in the limbo between surgery and recovery (or at least that ability to escape the house for a few hours) I discovered that daytime TV is the stuff of which nightmares are made. Smart-mouthed judges, show after show of expert panels who are experts on very little, game shows, and mind-numbing reality shows are available in abundance. Just when I was ready to lose my mind—and still awaiting the all-important doctor’s note releasing me for work—the Olympics began and just in the nick of time. I love the Olympics and I always have. Winter or summer, makes no difference to me, I love every minute from beginning to end. I remember seeing Olga Korbut and Nadia Comaneci in their groundbreaking performances. I saw Bruce Jenner (in his original face) take his victory lap and Carl Lewis win his umpteenth race. I even had the honor of attending the 2002 Olympics in Salt Lake City, Utah. I had the privilege of seeing Apolo Ohno win his first gold and Michelle Kwan be disappointed—again. As my “fans” noted in the last 411, I am not one to blubber during sappy holiday movies, but I can’t stop the tears from forming when I hear those Olympic stories.

  • Apolo Ohno: Whizzing on Ice
    Name ___________________________________ Date ____________________________________ Apolo Ohno: Whizzing on Ice Apolo Ohno is a famous short track speed skater. He has won eight Olympic medals in his sport: two gold, two silver, and four bronze. Apolo was born in Seattle, Washington, in 1982 and was raised by his father, Yuki. While Apolo was growing up, he and his father lived in Seattle. Yuki worked long hours. He wanted to find ways to keep his son busy before and after school. So he signed Apolo up for sports. Apolo joined a swim team. He also started roller skating and in-line skating. Apolo became interested in speed skating at age twelve, when he watched the 1994 Winter Olympics on TV. He found it exciting to see skaters race around an indoor ice track the size of a hockey rink. It took Apolo only two years to become the fastest short track speed skater in the country. He moved away from home to practice with coaches in New York and Colorado. He hoped to join the 1998 U.S. Olympic speed skating team. He worked hard, but sometimes he didn’t exercise enough. At the tryouts for the Olympics, he skated too slowly to make the team. Apolo was very upset. This is when his father stepped in to help. Yuki took Apolo to a cottage outside the city of Seattle, with no TV or telephone. There, Apolo had plenty of time to think about how he would feel if he dropped his sport. One day, sitting alone on a rock in the rain, he decided to keep skating.

  • Platz Sieben Für Alexander Mann Im Viererbob in Whistler
    Pressemitteilung der Sportschule Fürstenfeldbruck-Puch GmbH 28.02.2010 Platz sieben für Alexander Mann im Viererbob in Whistler Erfolgreiches Olympiadebüt eines jungenTeams – André Lange holt Silber Olympia ist der große Traum eines jeden Athleten – für viele Bobfahrer aber wurde die Bahn in Whistler zum Verhängnis. Sechs Stürze in den ersten beiden Läufen sind ein nahezu unglaubliches Ergebnis, das den Bundestrainer der Damen dazu veranlasste, in der ARD nach dem ersten Tag für einen Abbruch des Wettkampfes zu plädieren, denn er sorgte sich um die deutschen Fahrer. „Das Rennen avanciert zur Farce“, sagt er. In der gefährlichen Kurve 13, „Fifty-Fifty“ genannt, stürzten auch erfahrene Weltklassepiloten und Medaillenkandidaten wie der Russe Alexandr Zubkov mit seinem Viererbob. Die Bahn in Whistler verzeihe keine Fehler, hatte Medizinstudent und Coach der Sportschule Fürstenfeldbruck-Puch, Alexander Mann, nach den Trainingsläufen gesagt und damit Recht behalten: bereits ein paar Hundertstel Zeitverlust am Start und kleine Bandenberührungen oder eine nicht hundertprozentig ideale Linie gerade in den Kurven elf bis dreizehn sorgen für einen zu hohen Zeitverlust und entscheiden über die Medaillen. Als das Quartett mit Karl Angerer, Alexander Mann, Andreas Bredau und Gregor Bermbach nach vier Läufen heil im Ziel ankam, jubelten alle und waren zufrieden – sie hatten eine konstante und souveräne Leistung gezeigt, auf einer unkalkulierbaren Bahn und unter nicht ganz idealen personellen Voraussetzungen. Denn im Bob von Karl Angerer (WSV Königssee) sollte eigentlich Alexander Rödiger aus dem Team von André Lange auf Position zwei sitzen, Alexander Mann hätte statt Andreas Bredau auf Position drei anschieben sollen. Doch bei Langes Stammanschieber René Hoppe trat eine alte Muskelverletzung in der Wade erneut auf, so dass Rödiger für das letzte Rennen in der Karriere von André Lange wieder in dessen Bob wechselte und mit ihm die Silbermedaille gewann.
