Carroll students had the opportunity to tour the annual college fair on Wednesday night in the Carroll Senior High gym. With more than 140 universities from across the nation in attendance, students could get a glimpse of their options at the event.

“We have large schools, small schools, super popular schools, and schools no one has ever heard of before,” counselor Tammy Grasmick said. "It allows students to walk around and see what is out there and learn about things they didn't know existed. It is usually a student's first glimpse at colleges."

Theatre Advanced 3 and 4 has been preparing for their first show of the year, "All in the Timing," which is a series of comedy vignettes. The production opens at 7 p.m. tonight at Carroll Senior High school in the Black Box theater. Two more performances will be held Friday at 7 p.m. and Saturday at 4 p.m. and tickets are $15 at the door.

“I'm the costume head so I help organize costumes as needed and take care of costume changes and help out anywhere needed like on set," Sahasra Kandukuri (11) said. "I'm looking forward to the audience's reaction because there are a few jokes here and there that I think are really funny and I'm excited to see what the audience says about them."

On Saturday morning, Carroll's cross country team

On Saturday morning, Carroll's cross country team ran in the Garmin Invite in Denton. Between the boys' and girls' JV elite and open teams, Southlake ran in a total of four heats in the 5k.

"The Garmin Invite has been my favorite meet this season, and it’s also my best race so far," Audrey Hendrickson (10), who ran in the JV Elite heat and had a time of 24:10, said. "The meets are tiring, waking up early to bus out to a course, running a mile and a half warmup, racing the 5K, and a mile cooldown, but they’re one of my favorite parts of the school year.

Last week Carrol Water Polo went up against Flower

Last week Carrol Water Polo went up against Flower Mound. The JV boys won 23-7 and the girls JV fell in a close game, 5-6. The varsity boys won the game 18-6 and the girls won with a score of 12-7 over the Jaguars. Last May, the Jaguars defeated the Lady Dragons in the state championship, so this win was a big one for the team.

On Friday, JV and varsity will play at home against Marcus in one of their final two home games of the regular season. The girls play at 5:30 p.m. and the boys at 7 p.m. at the CISD Aquatic Center.

“I think we’re getting better and better every day and adapting to what comes at us,” Ryan Bradford (10) said. “Also our teamwork is improving day by day."

The Dragons celebrated the annual Homecoming dance

The Dragons celebrated the annual Homecoming dance Saturday night at the Gaylord Texan Resort. The Carroll High School and Carroll Senior High students got to celebrate together and have fun singing and dancing all night long. The CSHS StuCo sold more than 1,700 tickets for the “We Got the Beat” dance.

"Homecoming 2022 was a record-breaking success this year,” Student Council Adviser Lindsey Jacobson said. “We saw one of the largest crowds yet at our carnival, parade, and pep rally on Wednesday, and the student body showed up in droves for the dance on Saturday. StuCo is so proud of the turnout and participation by both our students and community."

Last night at Dragon Stadium, the Dragons defeated

Last night at Dragon Stadium, the Dragons defeated Timber Creek with a final score of 51-0. During halftime all Southlake Carroll UIL members were recognized at the UIL Lone Star Cup presentation. The academic and fine arts students as well Carroll athletes were awarded conference 6A Lone Star Cup champions for all of their hard work and dedication during the 2021-22 school year

Honoring the best overall athletic and academic programs in Texas, the Lone Star Cup is gIven annually by the University Interscholastic League to one school in each division.

The Dragons won five state championships in boys cross-country, girls soccer, baseball, and boys and girls swim and dive and other UIL teams ranging from academics to cheer, girls basketball, football and more earned points for their successes in district, region and state competitions.

“At the game last night, it was a lot of fun to walk out on the field with all of my teammates and friends as we were being recognized for our hard work during the season,” Faith Leong (11) a Lady Dragon basketball player said. It was a great time on the field as the crowd showed their support to all of us.”

Last night at Town Square, the Dragons came togeth

Last night at Town Square, the Dragons came together for the annual Southlake homecoming carnival and parade. The booths, activities and pep rally were enjoyed by hundreds of community members and organized by the CHS/CSHS Student Council. Following the parade, seniors Shaheer Qureshi and Hannah Fonseca were crowned as the event's homecoming king and queen.

“Winning HoCo queen was a total surprise,” Fonseca said. “They took all the court members up to the balcony of Town Square and we found out at the same time as everyone else which was really special. Sophomore year I was in the court for the ‘reverse COVID’ parade which was definitely an honor, but it was nothing like the experience of a full parade and pep rally. Hearing everyone in the band cheer for Shaheer and I was something I’ll never forget. I’m so grateful and honored that we both get to represent both band and robotics.”

Check out dragonmedia.org for a full gallery of carnival and parade pictures.

Yesterday, Carroll Senior High had their pep rally

Yesterday, Carroll Senior High had their pep rally in the main gym. The Carroll Dragon football team is competing to be named the most motivated team in Texas by Dave Campbell's Football. Logan Anderson also received a $1,000 scholarship from Dave Campbell's Football and Pep Boys, and the Carroll Senior High StuCo and Dragons Give Back Club were able to raise over $1500 today at the pep rally to support Wipe Out Kids Cancer.

“WOKC stands for wipe out kids cancer which is who we have decided to sponsor this year,” Ashley Carcara (11) said. “With the help from some students who were willing to shave their heads we raised around $2,000 which is truly amazing and extremely helpful.”

Today Carroll High School had their first pep rally of the 2022-2023 school year. The Dragons gathered in the gym as they watched their peers perform in different activities and games.

“I liked it, It was fun. I think we need work on being sharper and being better with our routine,” Kaelyn Lesczynski (10) said. “I think it went good for our first time and we put ourselves out there.”

Last Saturday, the theatre department's Thespian Troupe hosted a field day for all theatre students to kick off the year with fun games and a chance to win points for their houses. This year in theatre, students are split into five different houses, red, blue, pink, purple and orange. The houses compete to earn points through participation and spirit and the house with the most points at the end of the year will win a prize. Field day, for many, was a chance to meet and get to know new people.

“It was a lot of fun because everyone was having a great time. I think it was so refreshing that everyone participated especially in the team dress up. Let's go red," Savanna Lowe (10) said.

Last night the Carroll Dragons played their first

Last night the Carroll Dragons played their first away game at Marcus Marauders Stadium. With a final score of 38-7, the Dragons shut down Marcus High School. Carroll fans showed their Dragon pride once again, as they came out to support the team and wore neon. Next Friday the Dragons are back at Dragon Stadium for the Green Out game against Cedar Hill.

“My favorite part of the student section is all the people I’ve met and gotten to talk to while being all squished together in the stands,” Maggie Schoof (12) said. “Every football game I get to have awesome conversations with new people and I have already made some new friends just from the first couple games.”

On Aug. 31, CSHS StuCo hosted a Counselor Luncheon where students had the opportunity to meet their counselors and grab a cookie.

“I’ve emailed my counselor a bunch of times about schedule changes, but I hadn’t met her in person yet,” Noor-E-Saher Ahmed (11) said. “She was really helpful about that, so I wanted to say thank you.”

“Last night’s game against Plano West was a great fight from Lady Dragon Volleyball,” Caleigh King (11) said. “We constantly pick each other up and feed off each other’s positive energy. As a team, we are definitely working getting better and better every practice.”
