Ping Pong Club Takes Red Cloud by Storm
By Phillip Zimiga ‘13
Ping Pong Club is the newest club at Red Cloud High School and a real crowd pleaser, especially when Michael “Suds” Sunderland and Christian “Cmac” McGhee are going head to head.
The idea of Ping Pong Club originated during the fall senior retreat at Storm Mountain when some of the seniors played ping pong throughout the allotted free time.
Michael Sunderland and Christian McGhee made it happen in the second semester. The club meets Tuesdays and Thursdays from 3-5 in Suds' classroom.
Top student players include Dom Pilcher '13, Cully Pourier '13, Austin Big Crow '15, Tomo Shirataki '14, and Phillip Zimiga '13. Guest players have included teachers Matt Campbell, Pat McElwee, Ashley Boone, and alum James Knutson '12.
Ping pong is a
good sport to play. It’s fun, and it’s also a good mental challenge.
