There’s no doubt that walking into a home belonging to sports lovers from April 22 to April 25, that one would find them glued to the television. During these long April days, the 2010 National Football League Draft takes place and the fate of teams, players and fans everywhere is decided.
These three days are some of the most crucial in the entire football season as they determine both a player’s and a team’s future. If teams select the right bundle of players for their organization, it could mean a trip to the playoffs for the first time in six years. On the other hand, if a team isn’t careful who they accept into their team it could mean disaster once the season begins.
Like every other draft, hundreds of universities and high school’s are represented through the players who are invited to attend, and the player’s who are in fact good enough to be drafted. One of those lucky schools represented in the 2010 NFL draft, was our very own Cedar Park High School.
Tim Knicky graduated from Cedar Park in 2006.While at Cedar Park he went All-District in his senior year, and today he still holds the Cedar Park record for sacks in a single game and in a season. After graduation, Knicky moved on to Stephen F. Austin University (SFA) where he played college football. During his time at SFA, he received the honor of All Southland Conference (the conference SFA belongs to) in his senior year, and within his college career, started 28 out of 33 games.
Fast forward to the draft, once all seven rounds were completed, there were still players known as “free agents” awaiting a team to call them with an offer. It was Knicky’s lucky day when the Green Bay Packers Head Coach Mike McCarthy called him, offering him a contract as a defensive end (details of the contract were not available at this time). Green Bay is an amazing opportunity for Knicky. So much history lies within the gates at Lambeau Field. Vince Lombardi, who coached the Packers from 1959-1967, guided them to two Super Bowl victories, and had the Super Bowl trophy named after him. The team was also the long-time home of number four, Brett Favre. Favre was the Packers quarterback from 1992-2008, and led them to a Super Bowl XXXI win.
Knicky has had a great start to his career with an impressive team, and we look forward to seeing what he brings to Lambeau Field in 2010.

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].”
