written by Zach Almond · April 12, 2010 · Leave a Comment
Every town has its one great athlete, a multi-sport star who dominates his respective sports, someone whose play epitomizes hard work and determination, someone whose talent is often overshadowed by the ability to make his teammates better. For South Kingstown that athlete is Senior Ben Hamill. Hamill has showed time and time again that he is among the top athletes in the state Rhode Island, dominating both the gridiron and the hardwood. “He seemed to be able to take over games at will,” said Matt LeValley, who...

“People are trying to be like everyone else with their clothes— typical NorthFace, leggings, Uggs,” describes sophomore Devyn Passaretti. “It just doesn’t cut it for me,” she said, “but if you want to be ‘in fashion’ then that is what you should go for I suppose.” Recently it was discovered that Neanderthals from 50,000 years ago created and wore jewelry made of shells, beads and teeth perforated and strung to be worn as necklaces and pigmented for color.

The bell rings at 7:37 a.m. and a group of students enter their math class. For the next 52 minutes they sit and take notes until they hear the bell, when they take a three minute walk to their next period class.

1. Team 6: Coach Phil Campo The wild and out-of-control Sam Johnson is always an annoyance to guard. Committing an abundance of fouls, though he will never foul out because his brother Dan will make sure that he refs all of his games.
