Costa Rica, anyone?
During
the dates
of June 7th
through the
21st, sixteen Pius
people will be
out and abut exploring the country
of Costa Rica. This is Mr. Paolicchi’s
second time taking a group of Pius
kids to another country. Last year’s
Spain trip was through a tour and was
the tester. This year Paolicchi decided
to plan the trip himself with fellow
chaperone Ms. Jenny Gilmore. For
about two thousand dollars, you get
an all inclusive, two week trip to Costa
Rica’s rainforests, beaches, mountains,
and ecology reserves. Starting from
San José, the group will trek through
the small towns of Monteverde and
Santa Elena, the Arenal Volcano, Jacó
Beach, Tortuguero, and then back to
San José.
Monteverde is known for
it’s rainforest and rain cloud reserve.
It is on the continental divide on
the northern part of the country

and brings out
many biologists
throughout
the year. The
rainforest is about
five thousand feet
above sea level so
the temperature
stays relatively
cool. The area
was settled by
the Quakers in
the 1950’s, and
have become
an integral part
of what the
community is
today.

Although Arenal
is the smallest, it is the most active. It

is over three thousand years old and
to the volcano and visit the lake at the
reaches over five thousand feet in the
base of it.
Jacó Beach is one of the most
popular beaches in Costa Rica. The
Pius group can choose from activities
such as shopping, surfing, parasailing,
dancing, and boating. It has a great
shopping area and many restaurants.
The group will be able to just relax in
the sun on the beach.
Totuguero, the “region of
turtles”, is known for being a nesting
place for green turtles to lay their
eggs. It is the most important area for
nesting in the western Caribbean. It
is a small town of less than a thousand
and is only accessible by boat. The Pius
group will spend two days here before
moving on.
This trip is not designed to be
too educational, but the kids can speak
as much Spanish as they want. It was
open to anyone who wanted to sign up.
Designing and planning it himself,
Paolicchi said it was a lot of hard work.
All the kids are excited for their one in
a lifetime trip to Costa Rica!
Paying for a college education
AYESHA
PATEL
News Editor
The
value of a college
education proves to
be endless. There
is no doubt an undergraduate degree
leads to higher lifetime earnings and
better career opportunities.
However, whenever there is a
value, certainly a cost comes along.
Without a doubt, the prices of college
and universities have dramatically
increased. According to a new College
Board Study, tuition and fees are up
an average of 10.5 percent at fouryear public universities this year.
Total costs including room and board
now average around $11,354 a year
at public schools and $27,516 at
privates.
The good news is that almost
everyone can afford to go to college
-- one way or another. Even better,
the efforts made by federal and state
governments in recent years have
made college more affordable in the
form of tax credits, savings plans,
financial aid, loans, grants and workstudy programs.
This year, the US Department of
Education will provide more than
$67 billion, about 70 % of all student
aid, to help millions of students and
families pay for a postsecondary
education. More than 9 million
students get an ED grant or loan
each year. For further information
on realistically financing a college
education students should visit
www.studentaid.ed.gov.
Academic and athletic scholarships
also contribute a great amount to help
students pay for their college. Senior
Meagan Castaldo plans to attend
Mercer University in Macon, Georgia
with the aid of an athletic scholarship
for soccer.
Many private scholarships are also
offered by individual organizations.
Most of these scholarships are awarded
to students based on financial need
and specific criteria established by the
donor of each scholarship. According
to the Institute for Higher Education
Policy, students receive more than $3
billion per year in private scholarships.
However, students should be aware
of several “scams” when applying
for college scholarships. Many fake
scholarship programs require the
student to submit unnecessary fees or
require the student to buy “scholarship
gifts”.
To be entirely safe when dealing
with private college scholarships,
it is better to deal with a reputable
company. One web site, which has
information regarding scholarships
and financial assistance - and is
reputable - is www.finaid.org. This
site has a wealth of information,
including scholarships that are not
only need based, but also those that
are based upon merit.
Funding for a child to attend college can
be a struggle for most parents. Several
students rely on loans or grants to get
them through schooling. Photo from

The last time I will ever bother you
This is it. This is
my last editorial.
No crying, please.
Let’s try to make
this easy for both
of us.
I started writing
you articles my
MICHAEL
sophomore year.
ANGULO
Since then, I have
Editor-In-Chief
spent three years
writing creative
stories that will either a) interest you
b) annoy you, or c) enlighten you. But
as I look back, I hope you’ve been
able to experience all three types.
It has been hard. Finding stories
that teenagers will actually want to
read is a lot more difficult than I
thought. But I’ve tried. With my
witty titles, my obnoxious pull quotes,
and my incredibly handsome byline picture, I endeavored to catch
your attention. And perhaps for five
minutes you took the time to read my
article. If you did, I thank you. If not,
I’m sure you had a good excuse.
A lot has happened since I came to
Pius, and since I’ve been writing for
this newspaper. Freshman year we
watched the terrorist attacks of 9/11 in
the school library. The world seemed
frozen in time. The next months were
filled with uncertainty as US troops
moved into Afghanistan. A year later,
US troops were pushing into Iraq,
as I watched the night-vision shots
of Baghdad in the library again.
The uncertainty resurfaced. Finally,
my senior year saw yet another new
experience- a Presidential race. But
mid-way through the semester I was
in the library again, listening to my
candidate concede defeat. I don’t
think it can be argued that these past
four years have seen some of the most
profound changes of our generation.
Truly, I’ve picked an interesting
time to write for a newspaper.
But as my career in high school
journalism comes to a close, I should
probably point out some people
that have made a difference over
the years. A big thank you must be
given to anyone who read one of
my editorials and hated it. From the
War in Iraq to SUVs to mercenaries,
I appreciate those who disagree
with me and have the courage to
say so. Whether you sent me your
own editorial or talked to me in the
hallway, thanks for addressing me
on the issues. Honestly, I wouldn’t
write editorials if I thought everyone
was going to agree with me. It just
wouldn’t be any fun.
But perhaps I should thank all
of you. Whether you’ve enjoyed my
articles or not, you’ve let me write
about issues and events that matter to
me. For three years I have been given
the great honor of writing for this
newspaper and reaching the entire
school community.
I hope you read on when I’m
gone. I’m sure you will. Now I’ll stop
bothering you.
Family Guy has returned
It’s baaaaaaaaack.
Finally after a
three year hiatus
Fox’s Family Guy
has returned.
Sure I bashed Fox
television in an
earlier article of
DANIEL
mine, but now I
SWEENEY
cannot help but
Opinions Editor love them. The Fox
Network has finally
listened to the people and renewed a
show that was canceled way before its
time.
On February 14, 2002 Family Guy
aired what was thought to be its final
episode. For over two years fans like
me reminisced about the lost show
until last summer. With the trend
of defunct television shows being
released on DVD, Fox decided to
follow in foot and release Family Guy.
What followed was much unexpected.
The show that had only aired for only
two and a half short years absolutely
shattered DVD sale records. Sales
went through the roof. Stores could
not keep enough copies of the DVD
in stock. In the months following the
release of the second volume, the
executives at Fox saw that the people
adored the forgotten show and
decided to renew the show for May
2005.
Fans like Joey Conklin (’05) were
more than ecstatic when they learned
of the shows resurrection. “At first I
was really happy, then I was really
nervous because I was afraid they
would hold back and wouldn’t be as
edgy as they originally were, but boy
was I wrong, dead wrong” said Joey
when asked about his thoughts on the
show’s return.
Unlike most comedy shows that
often have some kind of underlying
message to be learned by its viewers,
Family Guy has no such message. At
no point whatsoever does the show
ever have even a glimpse of an ounce
of seriousness to it. Personally I think
this is what makes Family Guy so
appealing and addicting. The fact that
for 30 minutes a week the American
public can fully escape from the
drudgery of their normal, mundane
lives. People can just take time to look
at life from a different perspective,
that of Peter Griffin, and just laugh.
In a day and age where everything
is either reality TV or has to teach
some kind of lesson Family Guy takes
its viewers on a magical journey
where absolutely nothing is taken
seriously.
Brain Waves, Inc.
Would like to wish all the
students and faculty of
St. Pius X a safe and
happy summer.

Prom... Expense vs. Entertainment
Prom... A
time of tuxedos,
flowers, fancy
dinners, dancing,
and overall fun.
Or is it? This year,
prom was a bit
disappointing.
NICHOLAS
While the dancing
BERLON
and decoration
was a lot of fun,
Staff Writer
the food and ticket
cost just didn’t add up. After being
encouraged to eat at prom, I was
disappointed in the food quality.
Paying $60 per ticket for a buffet is
perfectly okay, but there should be an
option to buy tickets at a discount and
go out to dinner at a nice restaurant.
My date, for instance, is a vegetarian.
At prom, she ended up with a crust of
bread on her plate and a small glass
of water. Next year, I think that some
changes definitely need to be made in
terms of ticket cost as well as the food.
While it was a good idea to encourage
everyone to eat at prom, it should be
a lot nicer than what it was this year.
When everyone
dresses up in tuxedos
and ball gowns, a
buffet just doesn’t
seem to fit. Next year
some changes in the
food selection could
be reviewd.
Other areas
don’t require any
significant changes.
The dancing and
decorations were
well done and a lot of
fun. After the initial
“I don’t want to be
first on the dance
floor” sentiment was
overcome, everyone
seemed to have a
great time. I am
definitely looking
forward to next
year’s prom and
I know that it will
be a memorable
experience.
Students eat at the Prom. This year’s Prom was a lot of fun and students enjoyed having
the opportunity to dance and have a good time. Photo courtesy of Nick Berlon.
Self-Indulgent Newspaper Goodbye Article
Ah, summertime!
Over the past three
days alone I have
caught some sun
at a lake, painted
birds and snakes
on a friend’s
Volkswagen Van,
CHARLIE KEY gone out to eat with
friends, rocked out
Features
at a concert, made
Editor
a mix CD, and been
to two graduation
parties, one of which was my own.
Right now I’m sitting at my computer
with last night’s clothes on – I haven’t
taken a shower, nor have I brushed
my teeth, and I definitely have not
had breakfast, although a certain
Laura Papania’s English-style Trifle
is calling me from the refrigerator.
Honeysuckle is in the air – it’s
summer.
That is, at least, for me. And
the rest of the senior class. In fact,
everyone who will receive this last
newspaper issue (way overdue, as
always!) is still, and will still be, in
school. Unlucky!
But that’s not what my story is
about. Well, actually, it is. You see, as
I am writing these words, a stunning
transformetamorphosis is taking
place right in the halls of Saint Pius
X Catholic High School – Juniors are
becoming – gasp! – SENIORS! (And
sophomores juniors and freshman
sophomores…but its called junior
move-up day for a reason…a reason
that I do not know!) Soon, the lovable
goofy juniors we know will turn into
corner-cutting, fun-loving, lovable
goofy seniors. It’s absolutely horrid,
I know.
So, what I’ve been trying to get
at here with very little luck is this:
students of St. Pius, you still have a
year or two or three left in these halls
(captain obvious, right?). I’d like to
give you a huge long list of advice,
but unfortunately, I’m still not quite
awake yet. And anyways, I don’t think
my advice would do you any good. I
just want to say – going to high school
day in, day out, for four years can get
claustrophobic. You can start to feel
like you’ve been in school and will be
in school forever. But one fateful day
Senior year you will finish your last
exam, unload your locker, sell your
books and SHAZAAM! (Or kaboom
or bam or whichever onomatopoeia
floats your boat) – you will no longer
be a student at St. Pius X. You can
walk in the halls however much you
like, you can come back and visit
every single time it strikes your fancy,
you can even wait to turn in your
newspaper story for the last issue
until the Monday after you finished
school – but you will be separate, cast
off like a ship from a friendly harbor.
A ship that receives alumni mailings
every few months.
So enjoy! Enjoy, enjoy, enjoy!
Remember that you will not always
be falling asleep in class and slaving
over research papers until five in
the morning! You will not always be
having to wake up at such ungodly
hours as seven or – shudder - six!
But you also will not always be
surrounded
by good
friends.
You will not
always have

You will
not always

that come

St. Pius bands battle it out
Field Day for
many here at Pius
is always an exciting
day in which we get
to escape from our
normal routine of
classes and have
MARIE
fun instead. This
PHELAN
year’s field day
Staff Writer
included something
a little different.
In addition to having a talent show,
the sophomore council, who was in
charge of this year’s field day, decided
to add a first ever St. Pius Battle of
the Bands.
This battle consisted of two bands
from the school that were made up
of senior boys. One band, The Ohh
Phives were created specially for the
battle on field day. The Ohh Phives
included; keyboardist and backup
vocals Gavin McBreaity, bass guitarist
Matt Rossino, lead guitarist and
vocals Stephen Bush, drummer Alex
Seglem, and lead singer Ricki Ucinski.
The competing band, Bananafish
included lead singer Johnny
Rowland, lead guitarist Charlie Key,
drummer Mike Judd, and guitarist
John Lago.
Both bands were determined and
ready to win. Guitarist Charlie Key,
from Bananafish claimed, “It was
a little intimidating when everyone
started filling up the stands, but I
knew that we were gonna rock the
house so I wasn’t scared.”
The Ohh Phives entertained
the crowd with commonly known
songs from bands like Blink 182,
Incubus, and Lynard Syknard. They
showed off their skill while guitarist
Stephen Bush amazed the crowd by
playing a guitar solo behind his head.
Bananafish played songs from 311,
Third Eye Blind, The Who and The
Strokes. Both bands proved to be
talented and in a three round battle
the winner came down to a one and
one tie by the last round.
But in this battle only one could
come out on top. In a close and final
determination concluded by our very
own Mr. Hall the apparent winner
of the first ever Battle of the Bands
was The Ohh Phives. Both bands did
an outstanding job, however, and
made history in this year’s field day.
Kyle: An image of me being
assassinated by the ghost of John
Wilkes Booth.
Coralli: We won! We won! We won!
Then I thought… what in the world
were they thinking?
What would you like to say to your
supporters?
Dan: Thanks… [insert witty comment
here].
Kyle: Thanks for voting for us. Also,
remember that we were elected
Coralli: You guys are cool… ask me
and I might give you a ride in my car.
What would you like to say to the
competition?
Dan: First off, congratulations to
Emily and Elizabeth, it was a fierce
competition… between a lot of close
friends of mine. Without all of you
competitors, there wouldn’t have
been a competition.
Kyle: Every pair we ran against
deserved to be elected and would
have done a great job. I hope to see
them on the council so that they can
help Dan and me do as good a job as
possible.
Emily: Grrr…
Coralli: I thought all the other
speeches were funny and totally
awesome… you can have a ride in my
car, too, if you want.
What changes do you hope to make,
if any, in student leadership?
Kyle: Dan and I came in with only a
few ideas about what we would like to
change. Really, the changes we make
are up to the senior class. We will go
for what they want.
Emily: (Emily being serious) I want
for us to be more visibly involved.
Coralli: I hope we can get Student
Council to be more involved within
the Student Body and have more fun
activities to get involved in.
What inspired you to run?
Dan: Not so much what, as who, and
in response to that I say Bob Dole.
Kyle: I haven’t really done much
in the school and I figured this
would make up for that while doing
something fun (hopefully) in the
process.
Everyone had a good time and hope
that this will be a new tradition to
carry on for field day’s to come.
The new junior leadership speaks
A couple of weeks
ago, the entire
student body (minus
our beloved seniors)
gathered to hear the speeches
for those juniors running for student
body presidents. Emily Saad and
Elizabeth Coralli, two dedicated Pius
Players were lucky enough to be
chosen as the new representatives.
The following day, each class
gathered once again to vote for class
representation. Dan Brubaker and
Kyle Joyce, friends for three years and
members of the cross country team
walked away victorious. A few days
after the elections our new student
leadership showed us exactly who
they were in the following interview.
LAUREN
LIGHTFOOT
Staff Writer
How well do you think your
speeches went over with the junior
class compared to those of your
competitors?
Dan: Just swell…. Finally bodyguards
and spoons have triumphed over
candy and rap music.
Emily: they laughed… Everybody
did so well. I couldn’t vote because
everyone was amazingly qualified.
Coralli: We Won! But really- I felt our
serious and heartwarming oration
really connected with the common
St. Pius X high school student on a
broader basis.
What was the first thing that
popped into your head once the
announcement was made that you
were the new president?
Dan: An image of Joyce being
assassinated by the ghost of John
Wilkes Booth.
Coralli: Actually Mrs. Williams has
been telling me to run for student
council since I was in her religion
class freshman year. She always
believed in me and thought I’d do a
good job (tear) (sniffle) she’s been a
great mentor for me at Pius. I give
“ups” to Emily Saad as well because
she’s cool and such a great friend. I
also hope to be dictator-for-life one
day and thought this would be a good
start.

Discovering the joys of RRRamon
MATT
LUMMUS
Staff Writer
With elections
taking over the
school, hopeful
representatives litter
the hallways with posters, give out
candy, sun glasses, and do anything
within reach to win the votes of their
peers. With all the candidates up for
student body presidents, it is hard to
choose one group to represent the
student body.
The group that won the love of
the school wasn’t in fact the group
that attempted to bribe students with
candy or cheap gags, but the funny
duo Emily Saad and the one and
only Elizabeth Coralli. They easily
won the school over with their mad
rapping skills and hilariously funny
ideas about the election. But what
was the one factor that made this
dynamic duo the ultimate candidates
to represent St. Pius X Catholic High
School? Was it in fact the rapping,
Emily’s Lebanese heritage, or the fact
that they didn’t annoy us with posters
and other propaganda?
To many students the deciding
factor that pushed them to vote
for Elizabeth and Emily was in fact
RRRamon the car of Elizabeth Coralli
formerly owned by a man of Jewish
descent as Elizabeth Coralli will tell
anyone willing listen. (The “RRR” in
“RRRamon” signifies the rolling of the
tongue.) “The duo’s observance to detail
especially that of RRRamon led me to
vote for Elizabeth and Emily. That love
for all things including cars is only a
preview for how much they will care for
our student body,” states sophomore
Sarah Allen.
RRRamon, the 1986 Volvo, was the
talk of the school after the elections.
Everyone wanted to know about
this mysterious vehicle. As described
by junior Elizabeth Coralli herself,
“RRRamon was owned by a Jewish
family. The glove box door falls off when
I go over speed bumps and it’s got fuzzy
red dice.”
Be on the lookout for RRRamon
parked in the front of the school and
always feel free to discuss any matters
with the open and understanding
student body presidents Emily Saad and
Elizabeth Coralli. With the new cool,
hip, and not to mention funny student
body presidents, the next school year
is sure to be an amazing year led by
excellent students.
(Above) Elizabeth Coralli poses with a picture found in her car. This
is the picture of the former owner of RRRamon found in Elizabeth’s
car. (Left) Emily Saad is ecstatic about winning the election. Emily is
of Lebanese descent. (Far left and top below) Elizabeth Coralli and

with great
success. With each win, the team
has achieved higher confidence
and more playing experience.
The girl’s have gained wisdom
from each other about the game
and a large part of their success
has come from the fact that they
are such good friends and have
great love for the game. With
just eight girls on the team, it
has been a great effort for them
to generate such a competitive
score.
Recently, the team placed
second in the Regions
Tournament. This win helped
the them advance to the
State tournament, which will
be played on May 9th. “This
tournament will be a new
experience for the girls all
around,” says coach Braham,
enthusiastically.
Leading players, Ashley
Wolverton (12), Liz Mallof
(12), and Megan Reynolds (9)
will help to bring high scores
in the upcoming tournament.
Other golfers, Rachel Halligan
(12), Becca House (12), Becca
Krygiel (12), Heather McKerrow
(12) and Colleen Jordan (11)
have all been key players in
the most recent matches and
tournaments.
The team’s outstanding
record this season is a result of
the girls all working together
and showing such great effort
to bring about successful scores.
The girls have made personal
efforts to make this a great
season and those efforts have
been greatly rewarded with
each win. The girls have had
an awesome start this season
and hopefully will have an even
better end.
The Girls Golf Team is welcomed
at the Okefenokee Country Club as
they get ready to play in the State
Golf Tournament.

recognizes that such a season merits
praise, they were not satisfied.
This year the girl’s entire roster
is returning and they have great
senior leadership. This leadership
shown by upperclassmen is one
of several reasons why the girl’s
hopes for a state title are still alive.
The team opened the playoffs
at home against Rockdale and
capitalized on their home field
advantage as they won 3-0. The

when they traveled to Jonesboro,

test in the playoffs so far. The girls did the
unthinkable and posted a third consecutive
shutout. Woodward proved to be up to the
task as they held the girls scoreless and after
regulation the score was tied at 0-0. In one
of the best playoff games of the year the
girls struck first against Woodward to win
by 1-0 in sudden death.
When asked about the girl’s chance
in the semifinals and at capturing a state
title, Head Coach Jenny Gilmore modestly
responded, “I just feel blessed that I get a
chance to coach such an immensely talented
team.” The girl’s next game comes at home
against a challenging Hardaway team. If the
girls can continue their stellar defense and
use their home field advantage to get a win
in the semifinals they will better last years
season and will make it to state finals.
In the semifinal game the girls again

Boys Track to State
JARROD
DELOACH
The St. Pius boys
track team won
the region title on
Staff Writer
May 2nd capturing
the title over arch rival Marist. The
Golden Lions looked great over the
three day competition winning by
seventeen points over second place
Marist. Now since regions are over
the team has a new goal to win the
state championship. “Are chances
of competing are good, but we won’t
know are chances of winning until we
get there.” Said track coach Ed Letts.
He went on to say, “we won’t know
the level of competition until we get
there, but we have a great group of
gifted athletes who all have a chance
of wining.”
The Golden Lions had many
competitors who won at region.
Senior Patrick O’Reilly finished first
in Pole Vaulting only having to jump
13 feet 6 inches on his final jump to
first place. Senior Daniel Finnerty
placed first in throws just edging out
Marists Micah Poole. “We matched
each other throw for throw. He
would out throw me, and then I
would come right back and throw one
further then him,” said Daniel who
was very proud of his performance
at regions. When it comes to State
he is very confident. “It doesn’t
matter what the other throwers are
like, because I don’t care. I will beat
anyone who is there.”
The boys 4x4 relay team
came away with a dominate victory
over the competition at regions.
The team consists of Senior Andrew
Allen, Senior Mick Rubio, Junior
Kevin Cone, and Sophomore Rick
Scheff. “We did great at regions
and it doesn’t matter who we race in
state because we can beat anyone,”
said Rick Scheff This team looks very
impressive. Coach Letts commented
with “This team has been great all
year, and they will accept nothing less
then a win.”
Andrew Allen also won the
100 and 10 hurdles and the 300
hundred hurdles. Andrew hopefully
will have a repeat performance at
State and bring back a win for the
Golden Lions. Kevin Cone placed
first in the 400, Kevin is determined
to bring back a medal for the team
and for St. Pius Track. Rick Scheff
won the 800 and the 1600, he is an
impressive long distance runner. “I
believe that I can beat anyone at state
because I have the will and endurance
to prevail.” Rick will be looking to
have the same showing that he had at
regions.
Coach Letts is very confident
that this team has the talent to win
state. “We have been consistently
good all season long and now it is are
time to show off our real talent,” said
Letts. He continued to say “beating
Marist by seventeen was only the first
part of the mission, we now have to go
in and win state.” Coach Letts doesn’t
know if winning regions is a good
thing or a bad thing, but he hopes
that it will be fuel for them to capture
a state championship.
The State Track finals were
on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday
May 12-14. The Golden Lions had
a good run at the title but came up
a little short, losing the last event for
them to finish in a tie for third with
Marist. The team preformed well;
Daniel Finnerty finished first in the
shot-put throw and third in the discus
throw. Patrick O’Reilly had a good
chance at winning the state, but in
one of his jumps his pole broke in
half, which dropped him in a third
place finish. Andrew Allen finished
forth in both the 110 hurdle and
the 300 hurdle. Over all the team
had a great season, the entire school
congratulates them on a unbelievable
run to the championship.

throughout the
playoffs including
the state title game. The Lions final
game of the regular season was
played against Marist on April 22.
The Lions had already clenched the
region but had a chance to knock
Marist out of playoff contention
with a win. The Lions came out
fired up and played a very efficient
first half. Jimmy Maurer scored
the first goal of the game with 25
minutes remaining in the first half.
The Lions came out in the second
half firing. With 26 minutes left in
the game Spencer Davidson scored
off an assist from Halton Williams.
With 18 minutes left Al Lockhart
scored the third goal of the game off
another assist from Halton Williams.
The Lions controlled the game
with a three goal lead and the only
offensive chance from Marist came
from a penalty kick with 11 minutes
left in the game. The penalty
kick was one of the only chances
for Marist and the only one they
connected on. The Lions won the
game 3-1 and the victory kept the
War Eagles out of the playoffs.
The Lions opened up
the playoffs on April 28 at home
against Habersham Central. The
Golden Lions ran all over the Raiders
and came away with a 4-0 victory. In
the first half the Golden Lin offense
was on fire scoring three goals. Al
Lockhart scored the first goal of the
match in the 8th minute, the assist
from Joey Flint. Lockhart scored
again with seventeen minutes left in
the match. Two minutes later Jimmy
Maurer scored the third goal of the
first half off an assist from Kenny
Adan. The Lions played keep away
in the second half and controlled the
game. The Lions scored again right at
the end of the match on a nice header
from Spencer Davidson off of a cross
from Joseph Trillo. The Lions had a
total of twenty-two shots on goal and
Pat Barton recorded his ninth shut
out of the year.
The Lions next game of
the playoffs was against Southeast
Whitfield. The Lions faced a very
talented team but their offense and
defense came out firing. The Lions
got the first goal of the match when
Kenny Adan scored on an assist from
Spencer Davidson. The attack was set
up off of a goal kick from Pat Barton
that was flicked over the defense to
Adan by Davidson. Later in the first
half the Lions scored again. Joey
Flint threw the ball into the area right
to Spencer Davidson who headed
the ball into the upper corner past
the keeper. The half came with the
Lions up 2-0. In the second half
the Lions defense held firm against
an onslaught from the Southeast
Whitfield attack. The Whitfield attack
netted a goal in the middle of the
second half to get back within one.
Shortly after that however, Spencer
Davidson scored again off of an assist
from Jimmy Maurer.
The Lions defense played a very
strong game, Pat Barton had five
saves. The offense looked very sharp
the Golden Lion midfielders were
able to control much of the game.
The Lions played their quarterfinal match up against Greenbrier on
Saturday the 7th. The first half was
played at breakneck speed. Neither
team was able to score but there was
certainly not a lack of chances for
either side. Both defenses were put
to the test and held firm throughout
the first forty minutes. The second
half opened with the same intensity
as the first half. Five minutes into the
second half the Lions had a shot that
was deflected by the goalie. The ball
was bouncing around the area until
Al Lockhart booted it from the right
side into the side net. The Lions now
had a one goal lead and began to take
control of the game. The midfield
played very well and kept Greenbrier
from having too many chances
throughout most of the second half.
Greenbrier’s final attacking chances
came at the very end of the game.
The closing seconds of the match
involved a furious string of shots by
a desperate Greenbrier side. Even
Greenbrier’s goalie had been pulled
and was assisting in the attacking
effort. The Lions had everyone back
to help on defense and they were able
to hold firm. The Lions were able to
come away with a win after a hard
fought match against a strong side.
The Lions face Macintosh in the state
semi-finals.

A Year in Review: Sports wrap-up with AD Mark Kelly

After speaking
with the St. Pius X
athletic director,
Mark Kelly, it was
apparent that the
he is overall very
pleased with the
performance of all
DEANNA
of the teams this
DEIBEL
year in the St. Pius
Staff Writer
athletic program.
Mr. Kelly is
overwhelmed with the amazing
amount of talent the students bring
to the various teams in the athletic
program, and the amount of fan
participation that the students of St.
Pius generate. Beginning the year
with a brand new stadium was an
excellent way to start the year as Kelly
says that “the stadium turned out
great.”
“It has been a great year when
you look at it from the beginning to
end,” Kelly says, “our football team,
girls and boys basketball team, girls
and boys soccer team, girls golf and
our track team all made it to the state
level of competition.”
These achievements are just
a few of the many. This year the
Golden Lines
May 26, 2005
girls varsity socer team was the state
runner-up and the boys made it to
the Final 4. Both the girls and boys
tennis teams were state runner-up,
the girls track team placed 8th in the
state and the boys track team placed
3rd in the state, and the girls golf
team placed 10th in the state. A lot of
hard work and dedication went into
all of the athletic achievements this
year and the students at St. Pius are
more than willing to put in the time
and effort.
Kelly continues, “We were very
successful in terms of the scoreboard
this year and I am very pleased with
the results of all of the teams.”
Mr. Kelly not only highlights the
sports teams’ achievements, but also
the huge fan based support that exists
at St. Pius.
“Our incredible level of fan
participation is noted all over the
state of Georgia, not only within our
school.”
He strongly encourages that our
fans continue to show their support
and sportsmanship, only asking that
students do so in a graceful manner.
He hopes for next year that students
focus on “not only on that we win,
Athletic Director Mark Kelly.
but how we win.” Kelly hopes to
continue promoting Pius’ reputation
of being successful in score and in
sportsmanship as well.
He hopes to see even more athletic
achievements and support next year
and salutes all of the coaches and
athletes in the athletic program for a
great year.
St. Pius student rides to success in biking
When it comes
to athletics, there
is no doubt that
St. Pius has always
had its share of
stellar athletes. But
when talking about
senior Thomas
PATRICK
Brown (class of
DUBUS
’05), his unique list
Staff Writer
of achievements
along with his overachieving work ethic is on a level of
its own. For those who are unfamiliar
with him, Thomas’ competes yearround in bike road races.
The sport of biking may seem
foreign and childish to many, but in
actuality is one of the most difficult
and rigorous sports. Thomas
accepted the challenge of endless
demands the sport throws at the
riders early into his career.
Thomas started riding
competitively back three years ago
at the beginning of his freshman
year. He immediately fell in love with
everything surrounding the sport
and dedicated himself completely
to becoming an elite competitor.
Thomas puts himself through
relentless workouts that he designs
for himself and competes in a slew
of different levels of races ranging
from small Atlanta based ones to
the international level. During the
school year, he rides an average of
15 hours on roads during the week
and then competes in regional races
on weekends. In Thomas’ most
recent race, he finished 16th out of
105 racers in a thirty-minute race,
short for an average bike race that
concentrated on speed. This summer
he plans on riding in the US nationals
in Park City, Utah and a stage of the
world qualifiers in Quebec, Canada,
The Del’tourabitibi tour. But his
most important race will come this
summer, where he plans to take his
riding to a whole new level. Thomas
plans to compete in the World Junior
Championships in Belgium, where
he hopes to start making a name
for himself among the international
biking world.
The question of whether or not
Thomas will compete at a professional
level is a complex matter. Becoming
a professional in biking is very
different compared to other sports.
“Some of the best racers today
are in their late 20s and 30s and
their professional careers are just
beginning,” says Thomas, “the key is
getting noticed and building a name
for yourself over a period of time by
competing and doing well in races
all over the world and that’s what I
hope to do”. Thomas clearly has the
talent and desire to have a future in
the biking world. But Thomas plans
to take my career as far as possible as
long as its still fun. “I ride because it’s
fun, not to try and become famous or
anything. So when I stop having fun
that’s when I’ll hang it up.”
Thomas competes in one of his many weekend races. Currently, he is training with a member of the US National Team
to prepare for his upcoming races this summer.

Proud to be part of the Class of 2005
To the Editor:
As this school year comes to an end, I want
to thank the students, faculty and staff of St.
Pius X Catholic High School for the support
they have shown our family during a very
difficult year.
My son, Tony Durham, was proud to tell
people he went to St. Pius. He had some
wonderful friends there and his sister, Katie,
had looked forward to sharing the St. Pius
experience with him for a year -- before he
would have graduated this spring and left for
college.
As his mom, I think I feel compelled to tell
his story and it feels right to share some of
what happened that night with you – his St.
Pius friends.
There is so much in the national and
local media about teenagers who die in car
wrecks. But, Tony wasn’t your typical teenage
stereotype and his friends knew that.
Tony was coming home on the evening of
July 21 from a date with a girl he had been
seeing from another school. As he entered
the intersection at Lawrenceville Highway and
Rockbridge Road, the light turned yellow.
A driver traveling the opposite direction on
Lawrenceville Highway took an immediate left
at the intersection in front of him. The other
driver, a young man in his mid-twenties,
appeared to be trying to beat the light, a
witness told police.
Both drivers were clean and the other
driver ultimately pled to reckless
driving. He spent three months in jail,
followed by time on probation.
Tony was unconscious at the scene and
died at the hospital three hours later, in the
early hours of July 22.
I don’t know how our family would have
made it past the days and weeks and months
that followed without the love and support of
our friends and the strength that we receive
from our faith. Some days remain a struggle
and we won’t ever get over this. Tony will
always be my son and Katie’s brother and we
love him and will miss him. But, we know
that we will see Tony again. Of that, we have
no doubt.
In addition to telling you “thanks” for
your support, I want to encourage you to
make the most of your time and opportunities
here -- at St. Pius and throughout your lives.
None of us knows what the future holds.
When something like this happens, it makes
you completely re-examine your priorities.
It changes what’s important in life and it
reinforces the importance of living our lives
in a manner that we can be proud of and that
brings glory to God.
There are lots of young drivers in the St.
Pius community, including my own daughter
who received her learner’s license a few
months ago. Getting that license is a privilege
and I hope
you will each
appreciate the
responsibilities
that go with that
privilege.
I don’t
mean to sound
preachy. I know
this sounds like
“mom” talk.
But, I am a mom
and I want each
of you to be safe
and for each of
you to do your
part in ensuring
the safety of
those you travel
along the road
with.
I wish the
driver who
caused Tony’s death had slowed down and sat
through that light. Taking a few more moments to sit
through a light is a small price to pay to avoid some
very serious consequences.
I hope each of you have a wonderful end of the
year and a safe summer. To all of the members of the
graduating class, congratulations and best wishes! I’m
glad Tony was a part of the Class of 2005.
Cindy Durham
Saad, Coralli: St. Pius’ 2005-2006 Co-Presidents
Why did you decide to run for
student body president with
Elizabeth/ Emily?
ASHLEY
BROUILLARD
Staff Writer
Emily: I love the St. Pius
student government and I
wanted to be a part of it. I love
Elizabeth!
Emily: I have a crush on Gavin, so I am
What was your reaction when you found
out you had won the election?
Emily: I was shocked because
everyone did so with their speeches and
campaigning and they’re all so qualified.
Elizabeth: Well Emily is
basically the coolest kid ever…next to me
so I thought it would rock-out if we ran
together.
Elizabeth: I was totally siked when I
found out we won. It defiantly made my
day.
How did you feel about campaigning
would you have done anything
different?
Do you have any hopes/ aspirations for
your role as student body president?
Emily: Nothing! I had so much fun! Our
(Elizabeth and my) energy combined is
amazing and overwhelming.
Elizabeth: Campaigning was ridiculously
amazing! I definitely had a great time
doing it, plus Emily and I are so random
and weird that our slogans were totally fun
to come up with. The only thing I would
have done differently would be change
my name..almost nothing rhymes with
Elizabeth or Coralli.
Emily: To have the student government
and the student body to have a closer
relationship.
Elizabeth: I just want to make sure the
students have a good year. I hope they all
try to get more involved, hopefully I can
help them in some way.
How do you think Gavin and Steve did
as presidents this year? Do you feel you
can learn from them?
biased and will not answer that.
Elizabeth: Gavin and Steve did an
awesome job; it’ll be hard to be as well
liked as them. I know everyone was
pleased with them. I can learn from them,
they are older, wiser, cooler, and they’ve
already done this for a year..duh.
What is the first issue you plan to
address next year?
Emily: Homecoming. Any ideas? Come
see us!
Elizabeth: Homecoming us always high
on the priority list with student council and
we’re already starting to discuss it. I’m
also hoping we can get a water fountain in
the arts wing. Lots of students have class
or activities back there and they really
need a water fountain.
Is there anything else you’d like to say?
Emily: Thanks for voting for us! We won’t
let you down. But most of all come see us
we’re so not intimidating and I’m usually
by myself anyway…

videotaping the entire trip?
Stephen: No (Laughs) but
that’s a really good idea.

style in terms of eating and
sleeping?
Stephen: We are going to
stack the car with Ramen
noodles.

trip. We want to have food
ahead of time. Occasionally,
we will go have dinner
somewhere.

sleep in every night.
Is there any specific place you
want to see?

home?
Timmy: We have to be back
by July 1st.

of down and try to find a
woman who’s never been
born.
