![Broadcast, yearbook and newspaper combined for 66 Interscholastic League Press Conference awards this year. 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)

"I feel like it’s not really appreciated in America as much, but [tennis] is a really competitive and mentally challenging sport,” Nguyen said. “I’m really level-headed and can keep my cool during a match, and that helps me play a bit better under pressure.” Photo by Kyra Cox](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/09/hasun.jpg)

Lucas broke the school’s 18-year-old record for the 500 freestyle at regionals and again at state with a time of 4:58.63. “I’d had my eye on that 500 record since my freshman year, so I was really excited to see if I could get it at regionals or districts,” Lucas said. “ State is always a really fun experience and medaling for the first time was really great. It was a very very tight race, [so] I was a bit surprised [that I medaled]. [There were] a lot of fast girls at the meet in general, [and] it was like a dogfight back and forth, back and forth.” Photo by Kaydence Wilkinson](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2025/03/Kaydence-2.7-23-edit-2.jpg)

If you haven’t heard, senior, Bailey Todd has upgraded from Student Body President to head monarch of CPHS along with boyfriend, senior, Cameron Kramr. The couple of almost a year was elected Homecoming King and Queen on Sept. 21 at the half time show of the homecoming game.
“It’s a real honor that my classmates voted for me to be king,” Kramr said.
The night of the Homecoming game, neither of the FCA leaders were confident they would win. They weren’t sure if they had rallied enough votes, even with help from close friends, Seniors Sam Love and Allison Rice.
“I was worried they were going to call his name and not mine,” Todd said. “I was worried some other girl would win.”
The varsity defensive end also admits to some serious anxiety prior to his crowning.
“Before I was just really nervous and couldn’t think about it,” Kramr said. “[But] after I was very relaxed and excited for me and Bailey.”
Todd attributes the win to her boyfriend’s popularity, his outgoing personality and large number of friends, as well as his killer looks.
“He’s clearly the hottest guy at our school,” jokes Todd. “But I don’t like to brag.”
As for Kramr, he thought his girlfriend’s personality won her crown.
“I think people elected Bailey because she is nice to everyone and is super friendly,” Cameron said.
With both of the elected royalty being seniors, they are excited to leave their names behind at Cedar Park as king and queen while they move on to bigger and better things.
