remi lewis gets into game mode

Remington Lewis ‘27, who prefers to go by her nickname Remi, is one of the many additions to North Cross this school year. A social butterfly, she enjoyed the homecoming dance and looks forward to her close friend Julia Corliss’s senior night volleyball game on October 16.
    The 5-foot-9 middle and outside hitter joined the Varsity Volleyball team and has contributed ten kills, four aces and four blocks in the 23 sets she has played this season. Unfortunately, Lewis sprained her ankle during an intense game against Roanoke Catholic. She was in a boot for a couple weeks but Lewis is back on the court with more enthusiasm than ever.
    Lewis is also enthusiastic about the  beginning of basketball season as she has been playing since she was 6 years old. Her jersey number is 2, the day of her dog, Pepe’s, birthday. She played on a travel basketball team with sophomore Maddie Howes ‘27 last winter. 
“I would say she is probably one of the most supportive players I have played with,” Howes said. 
With such an interest in extracurricular activities, the benefits of NCS are not lost on Lewis. 
“It’s really nice! The teachers are really nice, very welcoming,”   Lewis said, when asked about her experience at NCS so far. “You know they really want to get to know you. They always greet you and say hi to you.”
Lewis is also involved in Media Club. She has an older brother, Conner and loves listening to the artist Frank Ocean. She can’t decide between “Seigfried” or "Bad Religion" for her favorite song. Lewis also loves to travel. Her favorite place she’s visited was Lake Como, Italy. She loved the food and beautiful landscape. In the pesto capital of Italy, Genoa, Lewis enjoyed muscles, pasta, and an amazing chocolate cake for dessert, saying that this “was my favorite meal of the trip, and still might be my favorite meal of all time.” But not much else in the U.S. compares to her favorite burger from Jack Brown’s in downtown Roanoke. 
Though Lewis is an outgoing friendly face to say hi to in the hallways, she does have her secrets. 
“No one knows my middle name,” Lewis said, “And I won’t tell anyone!"
