Seniors Dalton Hayek, Mason Brooks, and Allen Grones pray together before the first football game of the season Sept. 1.
September 14, 2017
Over 25 members from all over campus come to Fellowship of Christian Athletes to discuss the news about the Bible, and how this can help them in their everyday life.
“FCA helped me be less stressed with school,” junior Garrett Uranga said after the Sept. 7 meeting.
Senior Hunter Howe has been elected by sponsor Cami Jenschke and club members to lead the meetings. The meetings will consist of doughnuts and many life lessons from people with active lives.
FCA sponsors 5th quarter, an annual event that will happen after the homecoming game Friday at Gupton starting at 11p.m. This will be an opportunity for the students of CP to come together and celebrate the greatness of God. The event will also include ultimate frisbee, multiple games, free pizza and a lesson from youth pastor, Dusty Brewer, about being student athletes and being in the Word.
“5th quarter has been an exciting event for all of the students to come together and have a better connection with God,” Howe said.
It’s not just students that come to an FCA meeting, it is some of the teachers on campus, too. Teaching English I and II, with a Master’s degree in Religious Education, Mr. David King loves to come to all of the FCA meetings and talk with the students about life lessons based off of the Bible.
“FCA had a big impact on my life,” junior Matthew Villarreal said. “It helped me find a new view on Christ and helped me open up.”
FCA meetings occur every Thursday in the Lecture Hall starting at 8 a.m.

Senior student director Mia Morneault says how much she’s enjoyed working with the cast and crew. “I am very proud of all the cast and crew who worked as hard on it as I have. A lot of people care about [this show],” Morneault said. “I have a lot of friends on the cast and on the crew, but I’ve also grown and gained friendships through the show, even as director where I may be a little more stricter than normal. And I am very grateful for everyone I’ve gotten to work with.”](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/DSC_0657-1200x800.jpg)

Kato’s painting is a political piece inspired by a photo of elementary schoolers in the street protesting against ICE. “I think it's also symbolic because they're surrounded by snow, which can represent ICE, and they are still marching,” Kato said. “[The kids] are not stopping until equality or justice is served, which I think is really important to represent and show.” Photo by John Pinion](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/04/Screenshot-2026-03-26-114740.png)

Yearbook won 43, newspaper won 14 and broadcast took home nine. “I think [the ILPC awards] are a great way to give the kids some acknowledgement for all of their hard work,” newspaper and yearbook adviser Paige Hert said. “They typically spend the year covering everyone else’s big moments, so it’s really cool for them to be celebrated so many times and in so many different ways.”](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/edited-ILPC.jpg)

The varsity baseball team played in the bi-district round of playoffs against the Boerne Greyhounds April 30-May 2, where they won Game 1 6-4, lost Game 2 2-1 and won the last game 5-2, allowing them to advance to area. “Honestly, [my favorite] big moment that wasn't even part of my moment was Dom's grand slam,” Cuevas said. “That was a big game changer in Game 1 of round one that ultimately helped us win that game and even move on. It set the tone for the games after and has really impacted and sparked this whole playoff run.” Photo by Allie Tseng](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/05/allie-boerne00159-1200x800.jpg)
















![After he takes the handoff, senior running back Trae Hill runs down the field in search of a first down. Hill rushed for three touchdowns in the 43-36 loss against Frisco Wakeland last Friday, but the Timberwolves were eliminated from playoff contention. “[I’m] just happy I got to experience the game with my brothers,” Hill said. “I’m going to remember how close and how enjoyable everything was with these guys. They are my brothers for life. Just waking up and grinding together, and proving the naysayers wrong [was my favorite part].”
