Danté Washington, a freshman business administration major at Fort Lewis College, warms up before the school attempted to set a record for the most people hopscotching at one time. FLC spokesman Mitch Davis said the college was about 100 participants short of breaking the record of 359 held by a Pennsylvania elementary school. “We didn’t get to crush the hopes and dreams of the elementary school,” he said jokingly. “They get to keep it – at least for one more year.”
