Wes Pry Monologue
“Have you ever tried something you did not know you would like?” I have and now I’m hooked like a fish. I don’t want to stop this sport. “Basketball”
To start us off it all started when my football coach was handing out basketball form and I decided to take one and give it to my mom. I had to beg for a week and she said yes and I was so happy and now I got to experience a new sport and I love it. I also got to be pleasured to play with some of my friends like Drew, Sammy, Aiyden, Dontae, and a lot more but I forgot the most important person my coach Wes Pry. I also had one downfall wrestling I still got to do both and I had to try new things.
To continue we had to try out for the green or white team and the green team was better and I made
it on the green team starter. After coach Wes told us the teams we got right to work and we learned passing and dribbling also shooting that’s my favorite. But then we scrimmaged white vs green and it was fun learning the fundamentals. Then coach told us when we will have practice and when first game are. Then coach said to my Mom, “your son is a true athlete he is good at baseball, basketball, football, wrestling and boxing”.
Another one are first ever game and I had butterflies in my stomach “whoosh” in my stomach I hear them flapping but right when I walk into the gym it changed its like I’ve been here like a déjà vu. I was ready I was the tip off man so we won the tip and Drew got the ball and Aiyden called for the ball “ball, ball” Drew passed it to him and Aiyden passed me the ball I shoot a three pointer and “swoosh” I was so excited. But we also won that game that was the highlight for me that game as happy has I was I tried my hardest the rest of the game.
In the fourth place I was invited to go to the first ever tournament and I was so happy. Also it was in South Sioux and we got second because we lost to Helen by two points for first and second so we got second. In addition we had practice Monday and Wednesday at west middle and I thought practice is the best thing because I grew up with all boys and my mom and they always said practice makes perfect. But some days it would get canceled sometimes because coach was sick or the weather “curse you mother nature”.
To end my story it was the last practice and we were all shooting around and then we started a five on five game. Then since we had forty minutes left we played knock out I lost every time. Then it came all down to our last game and we played Dakota valley and we won by fourteen points. Then it came up to the biggest tournament of our basketball carrier where every team came to play and we got last place but I thought that it was fun and I scored eight times the first game. That’s when it all ended because that was the last time I would play basketball in my sixth grade year. That was the greatest part of my sixth grade year plus I had the best coach in the whole world.
