Many students are looking forward for the games to begin, especially those who participate in a winter sport, such as freshman Shane Clayton. “I’m looking forward to ice hockey most because I’m happy there are professionals playing and I think it’s interesting to see them represent their home country,” said Shane.
Freshman Charlie Eisner said added, “I’m excited for it to start because it’s fun to watch.” commence
