Masonites have been trying to bounce back from a week of strenuous exams during Rebound Week that is going on now following the delays caused by long snow closings and late openings.
 

The week is jam packed with sporting events, in fact, Mustang basketball, both boys and girls and varsity and JV, won all four of its games Monday night, handling both Madison and Word of Life high schools. Last night the Lady Mustangs toppled the Rappahannock Rams 61-20. Tonight is Senior Night for boys’ basketball as six players, Nate McFarland, Pete Hamill, Evan Hamme, Jack Lawlor, Lafayette Greenfield and Matt Williams will be honored before the game against Strasburg. Thursday night will be Senior Night for the girls, as Allison Farrow and Becky Roa, are honored. In yesterday’s annual pin dodge game, the juniors beat the sophomores and the seniors stymied the hopes of the freshmen. Today after school, a line half as long as the cafeteria itself, formed for the ice cream social as assistant principal Mr. Guy and student government leaders dished out the frozen delight, complete with all the toppings.

Students can dance to the techno sound at Friday’s "The Underground" dance that begins at 7:30 and costs $3.

The weekly celebration ends Saturday Night as the wildly popular Mr. Mason competition begins at 7:30 in the auditorium. Admission is $3.00. Competing for the prestigious title will be freshman Sean Follin, sophomore Erik Dever, juniors Chad O’Hara and Alex Nette. Senior competitors are Zack Barrett, Greg Corbino, Rahul Gupta, Matt Meyer, and Richard Arndt.
