Nikki Hazelett, Co Editor- In- Chief

My name is Nikki Hazelett and I am Co Editor-In-Cheif this year, with my talented bestie, Cassidy Moore. This is my third year on the staff and I spent my first two years as the Sports Editor. I am very excited to spend my senior year with this amazing group of students, and hopefully help lead them into printing four outstanding issues.
