Students Prepare For Divisional Meet

Showcase

The Wolf Point High School speech and drama program took center stage with a public showcase performance at the school on Tuesday, Jan. 13.

“The showcase went really well,” the team’s coach Jacob Boysun said. “It’s always interesting to see how the kids perform in front of other people.”

Performances included a humorous solo by co-captain Cole Boysun, mime Nora Hansen, a spontaneous oral interpretation by Sheeha Standing Rock, a dramatic interpretation by Lakota Grey Bull, a humorous interpretation by co-captain Elliauna Ryan, mime Maya Deserly, a dramatic theater performance by William Schwarzrock and Amya

Low Dog, a spontaneous oral interpretation by Emmanuel Julio, a dramatic solo by Adrienne Peterson, a humorous solo by Nomi Deserly, mime Reilly Rees and a humorous solo performance by Owen Moran and Thomas Moudree.

The students are now preparing for the divisional meet in Shepherd this weekend. To qualify for state, students must place in the top six for their event.

“My goal is to take most of the team to state and place second in drama sweeps like we have the last two years,” coach Jacob Boysun said.

Students who have been enjoying standout seasons include Cole Boysun in humorous solo, Moudree and Moran in humorous theater and Hansen in pantomime.

“Overall I’m very pleased with the way the season is going,” Jacob Boysun said. “We’ve got a lot of numbers and have placed at every meet except for one this season.”
