Anna Strobbe, WLHSnow Staff
You wouldn’t guess that Anna Strobbe, freshman, hadn’t wanted to be in journalism, but she readily admitted it. Upon being asked why she’d signed up for the class, Strobbe answered, “I didn’t.”
However, she does have something that she really does enjoy: basketball.
She plays for the high school team, which she describes as high commitment and time consuming.
“It’s really fun, I enjoy how competitive it is,” Strobbe says. She also participates in events from young life, a local Christian organization.
Though this is only her freshman year, Strobbe confesses to be under quite a homework load, particularly from her psychology class. However, this is not greatly affecting her high school experience.
“I’m enjoying freshman year, it’s better than Rosemont [the middle school she attended],” Strobbe said.

Despite having the bases loaded, the team was unable to score any runs. “It’s just the beginning of the season. We’re just going to be playing out best by June, [and] that’s where champions are,” Rowe said.](https://wlhsnow.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/IMG_3077-1200x900.jpg)

Meikle, who was an Editor-in-Chief for the yearbook last year as well, holds both and stands at the center of the group. “That was an amazing feeling, going and grabbing the third place award,” Meikle said. “All of it paid off. I cried so much over that book, being able to receive [the award] was one of the highlights of my high school career, it was like the coolest thing ever.”](https://wlhsnow.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/11/8bookpose_philly-1200x800.jpg)
