He is a teacher, a coach, and a mentor who cares about helping students grow both in class and in life. Sports shaped the way he teaches. “Sports taught me structure and teamwork,” he says. “That is what I try to pass on to my students.” For him, lessons are not just about schoolwork.

Review of Weapons
The newly released horror film “Weapons” (Rated R), starring Julia Garner, brings audiences along a haunting journey, where all students in a classroom, except for one, mysteriously vanish at 2:17 A.M. at the exact same time.

Reese Bennett rb313@uakron.edu On Saturday, September 20th, I had the opportunity to travel to and participate in a program called “Geneva on the Lake”.
