In this episode of The Archives, Declan and Ruby take you poolside for a Lakewood High School tradition like no other: the 24th Annual Physics Boat Regatta. While students put their engineering skills to the ultimate test, they navigate the pool in cardboard vessels without ending up at the bottom.
But this year, the stakes are higher than just a grade. We sit down with the man who started it all, Mr. Dave Hille, as he prepares for his “Swan Song” Regatta. From his early coaching days to his thoughts on why students should “put the phone down” and embrace real-world problem-solving, Mr. Hilly reflects on a 27-year career and the legacy he’s leaving behind at LHS.
