October 1, 2018
Students and staff gathered in the Meruelo Athletic Center Aug. 30 for the annual Fall Sports Rally, which introduces the fall sports teams including girls’ tennis, boys and girls’ water polo, sailing, girls’ golf, cross country, and football. The rally included performances from the cheer and song teams, dance team, and All-Male Hip Hop.

"I feel most united with the student body when we all get into the Den, cheer loud, and join together to support our school and I think that's the best way to unite Mater Dei," ASB President Nick Van Dalsem said.

Throughout the play, Imhoff performed musical solos as Prospero’s servant spirit. “It felt so refreshing to return to in-person plays,” Imhoff said. “Having an audience to interact with made theatre feel like theatre again. I felt so blessed to be doing live theatre with an amazing cast and crew. Everyone killed it and I was so happy to work with them. You should have seen Mrs. Slay, [she] was so enthusiastic and pumped to get back.”](https://thescarletscroll.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/05DECCE2-D07B-485B-A3C4-25B376EA4DF5-475x327.jpeg)

Groups of friends attending the celebration day had the chance to take a collective photo before their individual shots. I will never [forget] Francis Clares words to me at a rally as a [freshman], before you know it you will be walking down at the Bren Center, and oh man [to] have these years flown by and its finally here, Nordheim said. I am thankful for everything Mater Dei has done for me and the opportunities that have opened doors, and for the people here especially Ms. Steves, Mrs. Pank, Coach Marquez, Mrs. Kitsinis and many more for their dedication.](https://thescarletscroll.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/04/E110E7B2-57DF-4D3C-8735-88E1B94EE29A-475x317.jpeg)
