This determines whether or not we are PAC champions.” My heart was beating so fast that I had a rhythmic pound in my neck. My sweaty hands had a death grip on the baton.

Research and Writing Dr. Schiff September 10 2013 Football Camp (Essay #1) Football camp this year was easy‚ especially for me. As a kicker and punter I did not do much hitting or running any drills or anything like that.
