I could not help but wonder if I had helped these girls truly be the best players they could be or if their hopes would be crushed by embarrassment on the field and a large margin of defeat. Before the game, I took them to the end zone for a quick pep talk to remind them of the time and hard work they had given to this team. We broke out of the huddle and the game began. We scored on our first possession and never looked back from that point. The girls were executing every play to perfection.
I also pitched in college at Northwood University, so I know what it takes to become a great pitcher and my father has been a fast pitch softball umpire for 12 years, he has a great deal of in depth knowledge of the game and the rules. Our target market is girls from
It was her mistake, so she is going to take on her responsibility, and be a great parent for her unborn child. She said, “If it was my choice i would have got pregnant after college” (Duval). Luckily, her boyfriend, her family and friends were unexpectedly supportive of this major change in Harley’s life. Everyone preached to Harley about how tough it would be with having a baby, she didn’t think anything of it. The only worry in their minds was Harley and her junior year of high school; hoping and expecting she would finish
I love the thrill of ever game, every week, every season making an impact and actually having meaning and purpose. Utah, Boise State, and all of you other mid major conferences quit whining and man up. The way you do that is strengthen your schedule and stop playing an unimportant season. I have always loved the Cinderella story, but not to the point of jeopardizing the character of the college football nation. Until there is a playoff structure, the anticipation of the top 25 every year will keep me running wild with emotions of anger and thrills.
I spent a whole year in a public school called Leuzinger. I spent my time building up my resume and grades so that once I tried again I would hands down have no problems. So mid-year my grades came out and I had received over a 3.6 GPA to make the Honor Roll. I would constantly see Serra in the newspaper winning championships. This had something i wanted and I knew that I could obtain it as long as I applied myself properly.
soon intervened by making Michael practice and exercise everyday. He had his first game days later in which he tackled so well one of the opposite’s team member that everyone was shocked. S.J. sent days later the video of Michael tackling the other member to several universities and suddenly everyone was interested in him. But to win a scholarship he needed to have a better GPA, so they hired a tutor for him.
It was a night to remember for the rookies. Entering a two-game road stand against their New York neighbors Fordham (1-4-0) and Columbia (1-2-0), the Red Storm (3-3-0) would need all the help from their rising freshman class to bounce back from a two-game losing streak – and they would deliver. Seeking the first score, it would only take five minutes for the Red Storm to get on the board early off a corner kick. Junior Morgan Ritter played in the corner attempt kept alive by midfielders Amy Marron and Deanna Murino after a failed clearing attempt by the Rams. Knocking the ball back in, freshman midfielder Emily Cubbage answered with the game’s first score as she slid eleven-yards back with a shot towards the right-side of the net past
My schedule consisted of waking up early every day and taking a 1.5 mile run, followed by taking 500 jump shots, a similar exercise Kobe performed during his high school career. Conquering the fear of failure became an imaginary bond between Kobe and I. I knew that working hard all summer honed my physical and mental edge on the court. When tryouts came around, the odds were against me, as the team roster had been established, but I did my best Kobe impersonation and played harder than anyone else on the court. I made the team because just like Kobe, I wasn’t going to fail. This experience taught me to have fortitude, and to always strive for my dreams.
TOUCHDOWN! The Tampa Bay Buccaneers just scored on an extremely well thought out play. It is apparent that they spent numerous hours in the film room desgning that play based off what they have seen in their opponents previous games. In today’s game teams need to be well prepared going in to games, both teams prepare all week for each other, its all about the edge. Teams execute to gain an advantage over the other team, at the same time attempt to take advantage of the other teams weaknesses.
I have never seen her so excited to go to school and show-off all her hard work, time, and effort she has put in this project. For three days, the judges kept all the science experiments to see who would win 1st place. I had the honor of picking her up from school when they were announcing the winner of the science fair and you would not believe who won, everybody did. Sadly in today’s world everybody is a winner and everybody works just as hard as the next. This communist line of thinking is doing way more damage than good to our American spirit.
