The Saint Mary’s volleyball team’s three departing seniors, Emma Watford, Sam Vorderer and Courtney Pelletier, provided so much leadership on and off the court this season, head coach Denise Van De Walle said.

Noah Kahan teased his newest album “Stick Season” as an ode to New England.

Once again, it is fall in the Bend. According to the sun, the Earth and the Encyclopedia Britannica, this means that on Sept. 22 the sun’s annual pathway and the celestial equator intersected, and that the division between night and day was equal.
