by Year In Review Collage
From the first-day jitters to Senior Skip Day sunburns, the Year In Review Collage stitches together 365 days of Maverick mayhem into one sprawling visual tapestry. Photographer Alex scoured every corner of campus–classrooms, sports fields, art studios–to gather snapshots that spanned every emotion: victorious grins at playoff wins, solemn bows at In Memoriam ceremonies, and confetti-sprayed tubs during Spirit Week disasters.
The collage is arranged chronologically but punctuated with thematic clusters: “Academic Triumphs” features lab explosions (both literal and figurative), while “Artistic Abominations” showcases avant-garde macaroni sculptures. In “Athletic Antics,” female volleyball stars face off with boys’ football players in mock tug-of-war battles, proving that gender-bending drama can be both hilarious and heartwarming.
Photobooth strips from Homecoming Dance flank candid selfies from TikTok Fails day, and ghostly swirls of fog from Pep Rally Pandemonium lend an otherworldly vibe. Hidden between these vibrant snapshots are Easter eggs: Coach Davis’s comedic cameo in the background, custodian Greg’s mop-swathe selfies, and one infamous shot of a senior in the mascot costume, mid-air, after an ill-fated leap. When printed full-page, the collage dazzles like a kaleidoscope memory, immortalizing every Maverick moment–big, small, or gloriously ridiculous.
