Bennett Cohn, a sophomore at Quince Orchard High School, likes to have fun with his friends, and plays sports such as hockey and lacrosse. Cohn has practically been playing sports since he could walk: “I’ve been playing hockey for 9 years and lacrosse for 7 years.” Although Cohn describes himself as mellow and shy, he has, “a more upbeat personality once [he] is more comfortable around people.” As a hockey player, Cohn has achieved many goals. “I have several hockey accomplishments,” Cohn states, “I am the captain of my hockey team and we won a tournament to go play in Canada, and that’s only this year.” As much as Cohn enjoys playing hockey, he also loves watching it.

It was cloudy in the late morning, which meant even the weather didn’t look promising, Even more optimistically looking it seemed like the clouds were about to rupture into trillions of droplets each one a part of me about to shatter from humiliation.

Hockey is the toughest sport in the world. Moving up in divisions is a big deal. Hockey rivalries are the most heated in all of sports.

I was nervous to be playing for a new organization and didn’t know what to expect. I went in blind, feeling slightly scared. I was a new and upcoming player on an already established and a great team. It was hard joining a team where I was the new kid and was instantly put ahead of some others.

The pathway that Mia appears to be on physically is that she has been very successful in her exploration of sports, especially softball. I believe that she is very athletic and will continue to stay active in this way throughout college. Mia has had the opportunity to pursue many things along her journey such as joining the school travel club, or participating in the school orchestra, but she has decided to deny those opportunities to focus on her schooling and personal goals, including staying physically active (Manis, 2006). Mia has always enjoyed being outdoors and going on hikes as a child, and now she continues to stay physically active through playing sports such as softball and tennis with family members (Manis, 2006).
