![MONARCHS IN PINK Freshmen Brooklyn Almasi, Rachel Koch, and Jeanette Schulz smile into the camera before the big game at the Freshman Tailgate. The annual Freshman Tailgate, hosted on Friday, Sept. 20, at the top of the parking structure at Santa Ana Stadium, was a big hit. The Freshman Commissioners and Freshman Officers organized the event with fun games, various raffles, and catered Chick-fil-A. Not only did the freshmen have a great time, but the organizers felt fulfilled with their efforts. “The best part [is when] we get to [organize] rallies or plan events,” Freshman President Sophia McKay said.
