Youknow that feeling when your favorite team has 10 seconds to make a comeback? The crowd is yelling and screaming for their team. This is what every sports event feels like at ESHS. That is because the entire little town of El Segundo, which is only 17,000 people in total, comes out to support our high school teams, the Blue and Gold Eagles. The football season is a prime example of our Eagle Pride. The stands of our state-of-the-art stadium are packed every single game rooting on our football team. This year we went 10-0 going into CIFs, but the stands are packed with people from our neighborhood whether we are 10-0 or 0-10. Not only is our football team great, but also we have wonderful teams in water polo, volleyball, track and field, swimming, baseball, lacrosse, tennis, cross country and basketball. Students show up to games or competitions for every sport. It helps to know that our teams are amazing as well. ESHS has had many students go on to college baseball, football, and basketball, some turn professional.

InFebruary, hundreds of people converged on Sand Hill Road for a party thrown by Andreessen Horowitz and the defense contractor Anduril to send a loud message: America is under threat and now is the time to build.

Just a few years ago, university campuses were protesting the recruiting efforts of defense contractors like Palantir. But conflicts in Ukraine, Gaza, and rising tensions with China, have made the idea of El Segundo a dog whistle for patriotic college students looking to build tech for the battlefield. "Talking about defense in the classroom was a taboo," said Rasmus Dey Meyer, a Georgetown University student who hosted a hackathon in El Segundo earlier this year. "You'd get eyes if you were seen as an advocate of the defense tech industry."
