The annual freshman mixer has been rescheduled for 7 a.m. – 9:30 a.m. Jan. 18 after it was canceled due the sectional volleyball tournament occurring in Goppert Center Oct. 24.

Freshman Gabby Keller had been hoping the mixer would be rescheduled.

“When I first heard the news, I was filled with much passion of anger,” Keller said when she heard the mixer was cancelled. “It honestly upset me thinking my plans for the weekend were ruined on such short notice.”

The mixer, put on by the Care Club, will now be held second semester, according to sophomore Care Club member Taran Smith.

“Care Club was disappointed when we realized we had to reschedule the mixer, but we are just glad we still get to have it in January,” Smith said.

“I think most of the freshman were pretty upset, especially the ones that aren’t on varsity and were instead forced to come to our game instead of getting ready or going out with their friends,” sophomore volleyball player Sam Smith said about the volleyball team’s reaction to causing the mixer cancellation.

The volleyball team ended up losing the Sectional finals to Lee’s Summit West high school.
