TURN UP THE VOLUME!!!
One spot. That’s how close they came to nationals last year. They came back deeper and hungrier.
At the Cougar Challenge, in an extreme heat warning, Point Loma took 4th of 10 scoring teams with five scorers across the line within 40 seconds.
Next up: Highlander Invite, Oct 17. The chase is on.
This Sunday, we’re rolling a full mobile video podcast studio into the Solara Wellness Festival at Fox Point Farms in Encinitas.
Yes, we conducted reconnaissance for a podcast.
Route confirmed. Parking confirmed. Power confirmed. Waypoints named after candy bars, because apparently that’s how serious we are.
Here’s the deal:
VENDORS: Want to be part of the podcast? You don’t have to worry about cameras, microphones, lighting, or the technical stuff. We bring the studio, build the set, handle the production, and get you on camera. You just sit down and tell your story.
ATTENDING? Come find us, say hi, and check out how a mobile podcast studio comes together.
Solara Wellness Festival
Sunday, October 4
9 AM–4 PM
Fox Point Farms, Encinitas
The studio moves. The stories stay.

Pink in the stands. Brooms on the court.
Before the first serve, Gianna Callari handed over the game ball for her mom, a breast cancer survivor. Then she went out and scored the first point of the night. That pretty much set the tone.
No. 20 Point Loma 3, No. 10 Cal Poly Pomona 0.
The second set is the one I keep thinking about. Down late and staring at set point, they just refused to give it up. Three straight points, and Golden Gym lost it.
Kyra Miles owned the net with 11 kills and 7 blocks. Kira Federico dug up 20. Ila Rose came through with back-to-back aces right when the third set needed them.
Four wins in a row.
Next up: No. 12 Cal State San Bernardino on Wednesday.

When I started my microplastics project, I was actually researching artificial grass and all the rubber and plastic that can come with it.
Then I visited the San Diego Natural History Museum and went down a completely different rabbit hole.
The Washed Ashore: Art to Save the Sea exhibit takes actual plastic trash collected from beaches and turns it into giant sea creatures. Seeing bottles, flip-flops, toys, rope and other random pieces of garbage turned into art got me thinking about where all that plastic goes after we stop seeing it.
Spoiler alert: it doesn’t just disappear.
That visit changed the direction of my project. I started looking more at microplastics, our water, and how those tiny pieces of plastic can eventually make their way into the food chain.
So basically, we may be eating a lot more than what’s listed on the menu. 🤢
That became the focus of my graphic design project.
Funny how a trip to a museum can completely change your homework.
Apparently, my rabbit hole was made of plastic.
I started this project thinking about something pretty small.
Literally. Microplastics.
They’re tiny pieces of plastic that can make their way into our water, soil, food, and eventually the food chain. The problem is that they’re so small that once they’re out there, getting them back isn’t exactly a “grab a broom and sweep it up” situation.
So I turned my Creation Care project into a short motion graphics video to show how something we barely notice can become part of a much bigger problem.
But here’s the part I appreciate about PLNU: sustainability isn’t just something we talk about. There are people actually doing something about it.
Over the past year, PLNU has diverted food waste, expanded recycling efforts, collected soft plastics, and brought together students, faculty, staff, and community partners to work on sustainability. During one Welcome Week dinner alone, PLNU diverted 2.64 tons of organic waste, helping avoid an estimated 3 metric tons of CO₂ emissions. The campus also collected 93 pounds of soft plastics through the Plastic Beach pilot program.
And then there’s the 4th Annual Coastal Cleanup, where more than 400 volunteers collected over 500 pounds of trash and recycling from Sunset Cliffs. Apparently that included a couch, because apparently couches also enjoy the beach. 😂
That’s why I wanted my project to focus on microplastics. We can’t fix everything with one poster, one video, or one cleanup. But we can pay a little more attention to what we use, what we throw away, and where it eventually ends up.
Small problem. Big picture.
And yes, I needed this video too. Because apparently I can’t just make a poster and call it a day.

Some games are about the final score. Others are about the moments that happen along the way.
PacWest play opened at home with the Sea Lions putting three past Chaminade in a 3-1 win.
And honestly, there were moments when this looked more like a rugby match than soccer. Bodies hitting the floor, players battling for every ball, and plenty of action happening right in front of my lens.
The goals, the celebrations, the battles in the midfield, and those split-second moments are what make sports photography so much fun to chase.
Swipe through some of my favorite frames from the night.

This is Sara, with no “H.”
Legend has it, she’s a seriously cool and devoted mom who spends her days serving humanity as a nurse.
This portrait was taken by her daughter, E Maich , an up-and-coming photographer who, by the way, owns a more expensive camera than I do.
But honestly, this is what photography is about. Celebrating people, their stories, and the contributions they make to the world around them.
Keep creating. Keep celebrating people. And keep telling their stories.

KEEPER MODE: ACTIVATED.
KEIRA. PATTERSON.
Point Loma brings the pressure and Keira comes up HUGE.
A ridiculous save from the CSUSM keeper to keep the Cougars in front and protect the 2-1 lead.
That’s a GAME-CHANGING save.

THE SCOREBOARD DOESN’T DEFINE THIS TEAM.
Down a goal. They fought back.
A beautiful connection from Maddy Saruwatari to Kylee Jerome pulled the Sea Lions even, and for a moment, the momentum was theirs.
The final result didn’t go their way, but the response did.
12 shots to 4.
They battled.
They fought for each other.
They stayed together.
Because this is bigger than one game.
Win or lose, this group moves forward together.
Back to work. Back to the grind.
WHAT A CONNECTION.
Maddy Saruwatari (10) drives into the attack and delivers a low ball into the danger zone, where Kylee Jerome (24) gets the final touch and buries it in the back of the net.
First goal of the season for Jerome. First-time finish!
