Personal Narrative: Algonac Vs. Richmond

I pulled up to the Conneaut sandspit at about 5pm, walked to the half mile to

“We are pleased to have the Raymond Park Middle School Rangers at our home turf!” the announcer bellowed as my team ran onto the field as ready as we would ever be to play our opponents.

My freshman year we entered playoffs with a hopeful optimism that in our first year in 3A, the largest division, we could make a statement that we were here to stay. In the end, the game didn’t go our way. There were some questionable calls made but in the end, it is what it is: we weren’t good enough to win. A tough reality but often times you learn more from a loss than from a win. Sophomore

While I felt as if we would lose, I still wanted to try my hardest to change that outcome. I played my hardest at Shortstop and was able to get two of the three outs by a double play. Sadly that play had come at the expense of a run from their team. The last batter from their team was struck out and we headed back to get ready and bat. The crowd kept supporting us through the bad calls from the umpire and the strikeouts even to this point. The team was motivated and ready to take this game and head to finals with my morale boosted I got ready to cheer my team on

While losing hurt my team's record, it also brought us closer together. We shook off the loss and pushed through the pain to earn our future

I will be courteous to all coaches, officials and other parent volunteers who are trying to help me become a better player. I will do my best in all practices and games, have patience with myself and remember that I am playing these games for fun. I will attend every practice and game I can, knowing that my team will depend on me to be there. Finally, I will play hard at every position that my coaches assign to

1. It was important for us to be reminded of our goal. There would be days when we will not do so great in practice but at the end of the day we still wanted to win. But how could you get the score you want if you can’t put the hard work that it takes to get what you

I really didn’t do to well hitting but the rest of my team did and that’s what meant a lot to me and watching my teammates making plays and working as hard as the possible can play in that field made me supper happy. It came down the last inning and we kind of just fell apart in the field but we still have to fight and play hard and just because we are losing doesn’t mean we stop playing. The game finally came to the end and the seniors started getting emotional and then everyone on the team started to get a little emotional it was a very hard loss for the whole team and the coaches. After knowing that we had a great season the team got together for one big last eagles on three for the

Today is the first football game in my high school career. I am beyond excited so the school day goes by very fast. I then go into the locker room where I meet many of my teammates who are very excited. They all are saying, “ What day is it?! Gameday!” Today we play the De La Salle Spartans who are a respected program in the football community. It is now time for warm ups and me being the punter of my team I go out early for warm ups. I then warm up my leg and after I do that, the team comes out and I join them for warm ups. Finally, it is game time, the moment I have been waiting for all summer. Our team wins the toss so as the starting tight end for my team I go out with the offense for our first drive. We end up going three and out so I have to

With that being, here are five teams that can't afford to lose in Week 3:

On our first game we did our best at the time but we weren 't doing great. We ended up losing and the score was something like 10 to 1. We weren 't a real good team and it seemed to me like some members of the team were a little over sensitive. I was always trying to stay positive by saying things like that was just one tuff team i bet we’ll win the next one, or we didn 't do that bad. Even though I knew at the time our team wasn 't that good.

In the last 1:17 of the half their was four big plays. The first came from Coal Grove, and that was a eight-yard sack by #52 Trey Hicks on #23 on Ruby. Then it was a seventeen-yard reception by #23 of Coal Grove.Then #23 had a thirty-nine-yard catch. The final play was a interception by

As the second week began with a bang at that monday evening practice we had our first scrimmage against the eighth grade team,they had been unbeaten the year before but the fact of the matter is the had guys that were like 6”1 or taller and our tallest guy was 5”9.He was on the B team!So you could imagine what happened even though the coaches weren’t keeping track our bench warmers were and it was bad.The score was 42-7 by the end of practice.Next few practices were like intese conditioning but I

While we were in the car, we listened to loud music, played different “car games,” and just talked as a family. It soon felt like time was still. I was bored and didn’t know what to do anymore.
