Many injuries on the team but no setbacks. The satisfaction was worth all the pain and fight they put in together. This is the story of me and my baseball team and how every single one of us showed the unwillingness to not lose. The first day of the two day tournament me and my team came firing out of the gates. Beating the first two teams of the scores of 12 to zero‚ and following that up with and 8-0 victory. as they day progressed we had one more game. Everyone a little

I couldn’t believe what I was hearing‚ my coach never even told us we had to opportunity to go. I had so many question to ask my parents. When do we leave? What do we do to prepare? What team are we playing first? What are we going to stay in? A house or a hotel? Are the teams we are going to play good? I had so many questions that couldn’t

Being one of my high school’s student leaders‚ both on and off the court‚ both inside and outside the classroom and both inside and outside my immediate community‚ has taught me that family is first‚ consistency is key‚ and consensus on the one common goal ensures success. As the captain of my Freshman Basketball team and now as the Head Manager of my Varsity Women’s Basketball team‚ this lesson has been learned over and over again in the past four years. I carry this with me everywhere I go. In

While every other team meeting was the usual‚ brief‚ “Y’all stay focused today now. We’ve got a ball game to play‚” This one was different. It was homecoming‚ and we had to deal with all the distractions of the homecoming parade‚ pep-rally‚ and all of the alumni we had to meet during team warm-ups. During

It was currently six o’clock pm on a Sunday night‚ I was on my way to cheer practice. I have been on the this cheer team since I was four years old. The coach I had was mean‚ and I hated her. And I didn’t like the team I was on. I never felt really safe going to the practices or cheering for the team. So when I got to practice I started stretching‚ I had to stretch so I wouldn’t pull a muscle or break a bone. Then it was time to stunt. I didn’t like stunting because I was the flyer‚ usually the

The experience I want to tell you about today is when my U-10 (ages 8-9) girls soccer team that I coached won the Championship game. Throughout the soccer season we had practice twice a week for 12 weeks and games every saturday morning for eight weeks. At the first few practices I learned a little bit about each player and found out whether they had played soccer before or not. With every practice and game our team became better and better. We actually lost all of our games before tournaments. Through

I held my breath to avoid the harsh taste that lodges deep into my lungs from the bus exhaustion. I walked onto the cold mustard colored bus and saw my friend Anna sitting on the rough piece of plastic they call a seat. She sat arms crossed shivering to the negative two degree wind chill‚ the only thing keeping her warm was a red ball of yarn that rested on top of a black woven beanie. I waved hello and sat adjacent to her to avert the temptation of conversation‚ we weren’t allowed to talk on the

I sat down in homeroom waiting for the bell to ring. Brrriinnngggg! I rushed to Mrs. Gregory’s room for Lit. Everything was fine until gym class. I had forgotten my assignment notebook in Mrs. Saphir’s room so I ran back upstairs to get it from under my chair. As I started to walk back towards the locker room I heard the bell ring…

There I was sitting on the bench‚ exhausted. Beads of sweat were rolling down my face covering up my eyes like water on a camera lens. My coach had made the arduous choice to pull me out of the game. I didn’t understand why; I guess it had to do with the 13 consecutive three pointers I had splashed through the middle of the hoop. Each shot was right in the sweet spot that made that distinct sound of the ball making a perfect “Swish.” The massive arena that took up the size of two full city blocks

game. We were confident about our chances of victory; however‚ our confidence was quickly put to the test when we first saw the other team. This game taught me never again to judge a book by its cover and that effort can trump skill. Undefeated in the regular season and on a role going into this Friday night game‚ we were the team to be beat. Our seventh grade team‚ quarterbacked by Alex Watermeier‚ had been together for three years and had built up an unbreakable chemistry. Although we had never
