As I approach the end of my undergraduate career at Hopkins, I’m looking forward to new adventures and novelty. At the same time, I have also developed quite a firm place in my heart for our school and our city. Like many other students, Baltimore is the first place I have lived in by myself, independent from my family and childhood friends, so it’s safe to say that the city has seen me through a lot of moments of growth.
In my time at The News-Letter, I have mostly covered soccer and motorsports, as well as Hopkins athletics.

For this edition of the paper, I decided to cover some of this past week’s biggest stories in leagues not usually covered by the sports section.

To anyone who is paying attention, one of the most intriguing stories in the world of soccer for the past couple of years has been the increasing prevalence of Basque soccer, specifically Basque soccer managers. Last season, Xabi Alonso — head coach of Bayer Leverkusen — broke Bayern Munich’s 11-year Bundesliga winning streak in his second season as the Bayer Leverkusen coach. In North London, Mikel Arteta has also had a successful run as the Arsenal manager, winning an FA cup and challenging Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City for the Premier League (EPL) title. Out of 20 teams in the EPL, four of them have Basque managers — Arteta, Unai Emery (Aston Villa F.C.), Julen Lopetegui (West Ham United) and Andoni Iraola (A.F.C. Bournemouth).
Coming to Hopkins as an international student during the pandemic, I really had no idea what to expect. We were still under some pandemic restrictions, especially on the Homewood Campus, and I had barely met anyone who would also be attending Hopkins that fall. I felt scared and a little isolated. But my parents had been insistent on me giving it a go. Specifically, I remember my dad saying that I would make a new life for myself here in Baltimore, and that the chance to live in a country like the U.S. during university would open my eyes to a whole new range of perspectives.
