Hey there I’m Zach Fritzhand, I’m a senior, and this is my fourth year on The Leaf. I am a staff writer in the classroom. Outside of school I am mostly found outside with my dogs or with my family. I always have an awesome time coming to this class. In fact, without a doubt, this is my favorite class during the day. As time goes on, I would love to major in sports therapy or sports management. I currently play baseball for our school as a pitcher and third baseman. My friends are a huge part of my life whether I need to be cheered up or some help on homework, they are always there for me. I am looking forward to a great school year and great year on staff!
