When I was a teenager, beauty was low-tech. It was also DIY. Nobody I knew ever went to a salon for anything other than a haircut or colour (or, in the â90s, god forbid, a perm). Instead, we attempted to live our best beauty-therapy lives at home: waxing, bleaching, masking (the mud pack variety, rather than the global pandemic one), French manicuring. Oh, the French manicure, the pink-polished nail, finished with a fine white line painted along its tip: surely the very definition of the pointless, impossible beauty task. We must have been mad.
High School Roundup: Homestead comes back to beat South Side in sectional finals
VICTORIA JACOBSEN | The Journal Gazette
South Side held Homestead to just nine points in the first half, but the Spartans shut down the Archers in the third quarter and did just enough to win 33-31 and claim the Class 4A Columbia City sectional title on Saturday night, Homestead s third straight sectional title and seventh in eight years.
Junior Ayanna Patterson scored 21 of her team s points, and the Spartans (18-5), who hit eight 3-pointers against Columbia City in the semifinals on Friday, hit just two of 11 attempts on Saturday and shot 26.7% from the field as a team.
Homestead s Patterson sets school record
VICTORIA JACOBSEN | The Journal Gazette
Homestead junior Ayanna Patterson set a school single-game scoring record of 43 points in a 96-51 win over South Side on Thursday. Patterson scored 22 points in the first half.
Spartans sophomore Molly Stock also scored a career-high 18 points.
Unlike past years, when Homestead and South Side regularly battled for the conference title, neither the Spartans (15-5, 6-2 SAC) nor the Archers (10-5, 6-2) are in the drivers seat for the regular season title as Carroll (19-2) is 7-0 in league play with two games to go and head-to-head wins over both.
