Isabella Fierros, Online/Media Editor-in-Chief

Isabella Fierros is a junior at VHS in her third year at The Cougar Press. Her favorite singers are Taylor Swift and Harry Styles (it’s an obsession). She is also a big Los Angeles Dodgers fan and being a reporter for them is her dream job.

Taylor Swift announced 1989 (Taylors Version) on Aug. 9, 2023 on stage at Sofi Stadium during the last of her six Los Angeles shows during her Eras Tour. Swift followed up the on-stage announcement with one on her official Instagram account, @taylorswift. Swift said, The 1989 album changed my life in countless ways, and it fills me with such excitement to announce that my version of it will be out [Oct. 27]. To be perfectly honest, this is my most FAVORITE re-record I’ve ever done because the [five] From The Vault tracks are so insane. Graphic by: Isabella Fierros

Second baseman and junior, Carlos Perez (#1) said, Honestly, in my opinion [the wind] just carries the ball more. It can stop it or it can carry it. I don’t think the wind was too big of a factor. It was just a matter of fielding the ball, putting it in play and not making mistakes.” Photo by: Isabella Fierros
