Daphne Kerr, Sports Reporter
Hi! My name is Daphne Kerr, and I am a sophomore here at SHS! It is my first year on The Journal and I am a Sports Reporter! At SHS, I participate in activities such as theater, varsity cheer and dance. Outside of school, you could find me listening to music, singing, working or watching movies. I love reading the Bible and meeting new people. I am a huge talker! After high school, I plan to go on to become a behavioral analyst. As of now, I am very excited to be on The Journal and share my work!

What’s up, chat! My name is Lorelei, and I am a returner to The Journal, making me a junior. This year, I will be your Sports Editor and will be taking on all the challenges that come with it. When I’m not working on Journal stuff, I am either doing one of three things: playing basketball, listening to music or watching movies. I love basketball. I am a nerd when it comes to the NBA, statistics and random facts. Along with that, I am the shooting guard for your Lady Cards and will (fingers-crossed) be team captain as well. Me gusta escuchar musica. I listen to literally all genres. At the moment, I’ve been on an underground R&B craze with artists like Avenior and Maz B, who basically no one knows who they are, but it’s okay. Other than them, I love Giveon, Shawn Mendes, Jon Pardi, Jazmine Sullivan and Tyler the Creator. Enough about music, I love to watch movies. When I am with my brother, Miller, we are the biggest Disney fans ever and have probably seen every movie on Disney+. But when I’m by myself, I love watching rom-coms and history movies. Some of my favorites are “Before Sunrise,” “West Side Story,” “Django Unchained” and “1917.” Um, but other than that, that’s all about me! Make sure you read all of my columns and all of my writers’ stories!
