Magic 2025

Categories: D-E Traditions | In Print

On May 22, D-E’s school spirit was on full display at the Myrna B. Sherman Gym, where MAGIC happened! Rain kept the annual intramural competition indoors, but it didn’t dampen the sense of community beaming from the rafters. Juniors (Class of 2026) took an early lead in the competition—which included a potato sack relay, a 3-legged race, back-toback beach balls, an ice cream relay, musical chairs, and tug-of-war—and then won it all in a landslide! MAGIC (Michael Andrew Glowski Intramural Competition) is named in memory of a late D-E alumnus who was a member of the Class of 1995; his father Dr. Mathew Glowski briefly joined the festivities and shared poignant reflections about Michael’s legacy as a student at D-E, remarking that his son “made everybody smile because he had the biggest smile around.” It was a lovely reminder of why we carry on this magical tradition.
