SOCCER IISSAC RECAP
Both the boys and girls team entered the weekend with

high expectations. The two teams anticipated
winning the majority of games and fighting for the title of
IISSAC Champions. The Boys team, under Coach Berto,
entered the weekend playing tremendous defense and a
very high quality offence. In the tournament, the defense
held strong giving up only 1 goal in the first 5 games
(making this the best defense at the tournament). As the
pressure of performing at a high level and fatigue set in
among the players, individual plays took over, goals were
harder to find, and scoring chances were wasted. The Girls
delivered an identical record to the boys after the first two
days of play, the difference was that the Bali girls were
AWESOME. They were the class of the competition in all areas, they were the most athletic, they were the best
skilled, the were the most fit, and they were the best sports. Absolutely a joy to play, and we played them very well
losing 1-0 in the first round to an amazing team. In the knock out round the girls played first and beat SIS 1-0 in a
tight battle, the Boys were next and after handling BAIS with ease the first day the boys just could not find the back
of the net.
At the end of the day, as we boarded the bus we were disappointed, even defeated, but our competitive spirits
were awakened, a rivalry was born (the girls really want to beat Wesley) friendships were made, there were great
moments (Lydia’s free kick in the upper 90, Ben Town winning every ball in space, Crystal’s battle in front of the
keeper, JuHoon’s goal kicks, Seth’s pictures on the big screen, Joy Park’s dribble past 3 players and hit the post.)
In a few weeks we will all look back with fond memories, at the moment though…it still hurts.
Snow white and the Dwarves
By: Calvin Collins
November is here, that time of year, when 13-year
-old thespians tread the boards, most for the first time,
some joyfully, others grudgingly, but all with some
measure of thrill and terror mixed. For three months
they chatter and goof backstage, while onstage they
balk and fume. The director flatters and cajoles and
threatens and despairs and hopes, while lines spill out,
some muttered, some with flair. Helpers abound,
working sound and lights, building and painting the
3
set, making props, choreographing and teaching
dances, running practices while the director lies on his
director’s mat thinking deep thoughts. Then the day
arrives and all this chaos somehow comes together.
Actors act, audiences laugh, and a good time is had by
all. This year’s production of Snow White and the
Seven Dwarves of the Old Republic features Hannah
Berglund as Snow White, Sarah Wareham as the Evil
Queen, Yudhis Laksono as the Magic Mirror, James
Kwak as the Huntsman, and Grant Gunawan Go as
the purple clad Prince. Emily Kusmadi and Hee Na
Yang are Minions #1 and #2 (I always forget which is
which). David Baek and Keely Morris are,
respectively, Boy Rabbit and Girl Rabbit. Our
dwarves are Elia Adiel, Gen Ha Park, Sung Bin Youn,
Ik Seng Jo, Hansen Purnama, Marchella Nielsen, and
Natalie Purwo playing, in this order, Cutie Pie,
General von Stiffenstein, Surfer Dude, Upset Tummy,
Singapore Lee, Grumpy, and Sleepy. A special reward
in heaven is to be reserved for the following: Kartini
Lederman, Pia Gossweiler, Yohanes and his tech
crew, Jennifer Angeles, Anjie and Scott Martin, and
Jason Tan, our new art teacher.
