![Two girl wrestlers are up against each other, with sophomore Jayelle Jones from Jefferson positioned atop her opponent. “It was a great experience. [It was] really difficult but I absolutely recommend it to girls especially. We can wrestle boys and we can fight. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise,” senior Harika Akundi said.](https://www.tjtoday.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/03/Screenshot-2024-03-23-at-4.43.01 PM-1200x853.png)
![Elias works on keeping the scoresheet updated during a lacrosse game. “[My initial experience] was a bit tricky because I had to learn the ropes. I wasn’t very fluent in lacrosse at the time when I started because I wasn’t an athlete in that type of way. But in the end I learned the ins-and-outs of the sport.

![Senior running back Christian Min (2) is tackled after a 10-yard carry in the third quarter. In the second half, despite a constant back-and-forth, the Colonials were unable to score. “We’re a good team. It all comes down to how much effort we’re going to put in [and] how focused we decide we’re going to be,” Min said.](https://www.tjtoday.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/09/IMG_0324-900x600.jpg)
