Maddi Saunders, Staff Writer

Hey! My name is Maddi Saunders and I’m a staff writer for the leaf. I’m a freshman here at SHS. I do cross country and love to run and write. I read as much as possible. Once I graduate I would like to major in literature and become an editor and publisher. I have a dog, Bella, and a cat, Charlie. I adore my two little sisters, Riley and Annie. I have had a 4.0 GPA since 7th grade. This is my first year in journalism and I am hoping to continue throughout the rest of my high school career. I love writing about more serious topics and going in depth.

HGH UP. The uneven bars are one of the four events gymnasts in the Olympics perform. Korbut made gymastic history when she executed the Korbut Flip for the first time. Since then, many other gymnasts have tried many difficult moves on the uneven bars but none as dangerous as what Korbut did. Photo by MCT Campus
