Tran said the wins against Smithson Valley and Alamo Heights gave the team a morale boost to take on the Raiders tonight. “I know we were not 100% confident in those games,” Tran said. “But, Rouse is a big opponent for sure. We’re definitely going into tonight with a lot of morale [because of the previous wins].”](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/frances-tran.jpg)

Terry said his proudest moments are when his students are happy to see him. “When I take my wife to a football game or something and a bunch of students want to say hi to me or they like to smile and wave and it just makes me feel good that the students are really kind and supportive of me,” Terry said. “[I’m also] proud when I see students perform really well in their extracurriculars because I can see how hard they’re working in my classes, [so] when I see that they’re also working so hard in other things. Like they’re winning band competitions or they’re getting awards for their theater productions, or I see them put on their choir shows, that’s like, wow, you guys are incredible.”](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/Rags-6.png)

CPFB Wins “Play of the Year” award
A Time Warner Cable rep presents junior Tommy Lavine and senior Amir Alzer with a $1000 check on Feb. 12 for winning the “Play of the Year.”
February 13, 2015
After over 14 weeks of voting, CPFB pulled out a W in Time Warner Sports Channel’s “Play of the Year” contest on Feb. 12. As part of winning, the school received 1,000 dollars donated by Time Warner Sports Channel.
The play was picked by a fan vote and featured senior quarterback Amir Alzer throwing a touchdown pass to junior wide receiver Tommy Lavine during the second quarter of the Boerne Champion playoff game in November. Nobody on the team was told about the contest results until the check was awarded.
“Once Mr. Sloan told me I was really excited because I’ve contributed a lot to the school and they deserve the money,” Alzer said.
For Lavine, it was no surprise Cedar Park won the fan vote.
“Cedar Park is a tight knit community so the play got out and people started voting because we all wanted to win the money for the school,” Lavine said.

Balakrishnan applied to 18 colleges in total, but she decided on Columbia in the end. “Right before I clicked the button to open Columbia’s letter, I literally looked at the camera and go ‘This is just gonna really suck because I wanted it so bad,’ and I clicked it and all of a sudden you hear trumpets,” Balakrishnan said. “There’s a video that plays when you open it and I actually didn’t watch the video, I just watched the screen go black, because every day of December before ED [Early Decision] I would go on YouTube and watch the acceptance video to manifest it, so immediately when the screen went black, I started screaming and jumping up and down. And my parents in the video are like ‘What are you doing, where’s the letter,’ and I was just screaming ‘I got in, I got in.” I just started crying, and it just felt like everything in the world came together.”](https://cphswolfpack.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/ariana-2-300x217.jpg)
