La Salle’s girls flag football team convincingly defeated the Clackamas Cavaliers 25-0 at home on Wednesday, April 9. The Falcons constantly pressured the Cavaliers with runs and played a very physical game, even leading to a rough bumping of heads between a La salle running back and a Clackamas cornerback. They had multiple interceptions, furthering the lead, with junior McKenna Morgan scoring a pick-6.

Senior Lindsey Kapanoske said that she is feeling “fantastic” about the season, hoping to continue the team’s 2-0 win streak.

The Falcons also won 45-7 against Parkrose High School in the last of the two matches on Wednesday, April 9.

Senior Gwen Brown loves to experience new things and isn’t scared to get dirty or wet. She spends a lot of her time outside of school exploring the Pacific Northwest, where she’s lived her entire life.  Growing up with easy access to Mt. Hood and the Oregon Coast, she was swimming through waves and skiing down slopes if she wasn’t camping at a lake. Nowadays, Gwen tries to find time to snowboard in between her wrestling and homework schedule. She has wrestled since her sophomore year at Cleveland High School and hopes to go to state this year.  You can often find her with headphones on, nodding along to music, which she would love to talk about if you ask her. She tries to keep an open mind when it comes to music, and enjoys listening to a variety of genres, favoring electronic the most. Once she graduates, she hopes to travel for college and major in marine biology.
