The Central Trend

Gibby Wierenga

Gibby Wierenga, Junior Writer

Gibby Wierenga is a freshman in his first year on The Central Trend. Gibby's mind centers mostly around sports, especially baseball. Gibby is very excited to join the school team for that sport since he finds happiness on the field. It's probably a mistake to ask him about baseball or his teams because he probably won't stop talking. Gibby loves giving advice about fantasy football and managing his own teams. You'll usually find him with an earbud in with music on, so if he doesn't respond the first time you say something, just say it again.

Current fantasy football record: 7-6

Hope for the Tigers next season: Better than last year

Favorite song (this will change): "Ransom" by Lil Tecca featuring Juice WRLD

The late rapper Juice WRLD wasn’t a big part of my life when we lost him on December 8th, 2019. I think I had heard him on a movie soundtrack not long after we lost him, not knowing who I was hearing...
