Hey, guys! My name is Zach Thompson, and I'm a senior at SHS, and this is my first year writing for The Owl. I will mostly write about music, sports, and current events. When I'm not in the classroom, you can find me in the gym where I manage the volleyball, girls' basketball, and softball teams. I am looking forward to writing some great articles alongside some great people!
