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)

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)

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].”

2018 Stanley Cup Final Preview
May 30, 2018
The 2018 Stanley Cup Final will feature the Eastern Conference Champion, the Washington Capitals, and the Western Conference Champion, the Vegas Golden Knights. The puck drops to commence the series on Monday, May 28 in Las Vegas, Nevada.
No matter which of these two teams win, history will be made.
The Capitals are lead by their left wing superstar, Alexander Ovechkin. Many consider him to be one of the best players (if not the best) in the league currently, but in the past Washington has been unable to advance to the Conference Finals. However this year is different as the Capitals continue to win. Washington has not won a major four sports championship since 1992. Expect the crowd at the Capital One Arena to be on the edge of their seats during games 3, 4 and 6, as the Capitals look to break their city’s championship drought.
The Golden Knights are only the second NHL expansion franchise to reach the Stanley Cup Final, joining the 1968 St. Louis Blues. All season long, the Knights have been led by their stellar goaltender, Marc-Andre Fleury, and this will have to continue going into the final series. The Knights continue to do the unthinkable; they held an expansion draft in June where they drafted players from other teams that they decided not to lock up. In other words, many franchises didn’t view the players on Vegas’ roster as valuable as other assets, and now Vegas has put together a team of players who hadn’t played together much. We are seeing the statement ‘one man’s trash is another man’s treasure’ come to life with the 2018 Las Vegas Golden Knights.
My final prediction is the Golden Knights in seven.
The Knights have been incredible all postseason, especially at home. Vegas is 6-1 at the T-Mobile Arena entering the Stanley Cup Final and have a home-ice advantage as well. If the series goes the distance, as I expect it will, the Knights will hoist the cup in front of their 17,500 fans.
