![MORE THAN A GAME. With two diving catches in the outfield, the Lions showed up defensively, aiding in their victory over the Pacers. One catch was made by Atwood, and the other by McGraw. Throughout the game, the Lions knew that it wasn’t just about their victory today. “I think [playing for cancer] makes it bigger than just a game,” McGraw said. “Knowing that you have a bigger impact in this world than just who you are as one person.”](https://wlhsnow.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/I70A1454-1-1200x800.jpg)

The students brought a variety of paints and mixed their own custom colors. “Instead of brushstrokes, we’re doing more dabbing, because it gives [a] better impression of tree foliage, rather than looking like actual brush strokes, because if we’re painting trees, we need it to look like trees,” Crawford said.](https://wlhsnow.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/IMG_2397-1200x900.jpg)
Sanitation supplies update
Hand soap and tissues in the main office.
The Covid-19 has officially spread to Oregon and along with it the worries about the amount of cleaning supplies available to the public. But “West Linn High School is stocked up” on supplies according to principal Gregory Neuman.
More specifically, the district has provided “plenty Kleenex and hand soap,” Secretary to the principal Kathy Connell, said. “We’ve gotten them mostly from places like Amazon and through the district operations center.”
The office has been quick to respond in instances of missing disinfectant supplies: “one of the boys bathrooms was out of soap, and we got it filled up as soon as a student let us know,” Connell said.
