By: Bell West  2022 is the year of the Tiger.
The tiger is the symbol of ambition, courage, self-confidence and a commitment to help others. By these traits alone, 2022 might as well be the year of sophomore Jordyn Dodson-Jenson. Dodson-Jenson made Glenelg history by becoming the school’s first female football player when she held the first extra point for the Gladiators against Hammond High School on Sep. 2 and has started every game since. Ambition, courage, self-confidence: check.

By: Nabil Abou and Mr. Illuzzi  In 1958, Bobby Darin’s “Splish Splash” topped the billboard charts, President Eisenhower signed NASA into law, and WHAM-O introduced the Hula Hoop to the world.
While obviously significant to pop culture and the world, these events might not have as much impact locally like the meaning of the game that took place 65 years ago, establishing the longest running rivalry in Howard County sports history: the Gladiators versus the Howard Lions and the battle for the Elgard Trophy. |
