Personal Narrative: The Varsity Football Team

With the Christmas tournament aside, we entered the post-season without a loss. We had a plan for each playoff game from districts to regional. We never deviated from the plan, keeping our eye on the target –

The head coach of the Keystone West said, " Today we will go 3-0 because I know that we work harder than everyone her."

The excitement and happiness are what we wanted to feel when hopefully lifting up a trophy. We needed to prove that not one person can talk down about us without there being a consequence. Every day for hours we pushed ourselves and each other. We became stronger individually and as a team. It was time for preseason, and this is where we must justify our position in our division. We played in one of the hardest group divisions in the whole country, which was exceptional because that left no room for failure, it just left room for us to

From that point, Dawonya Tucker rush for 33 yards to the for a touchdown, Owen Hoolihan added the PAT with 5:08 left in the quarter to give the Panthers a 16-0 lead.

“We started off well, just being consistent and their mental attitude. If they mentally turn up right, you’re halfway their to winning,” said Antonelli.

Hughson looked to push their momentum in the second half putting up four goals as Morgan Ehlers would put up two points,then Jessie Lawrence would put up one point and lastly Iliana Gonzalez would put up the last point of the game for Hughson.While Maddison Kenburg would only put one up for Escalon.Making the final score 5-2.

21 to 21 with 1:01 left on the clock. I went from glancing at the clock to returning my attention to the huddle. Looking around the huddle I saw all of my teammates that I admired most. Cole Garrett, Alex Koplin, Connor Collins, Nathan Puckett. All of their faces seemed tired, soaked in

The West defense got another sack, when Mike White threw the South quarterback down for a 6-yard loss. Then with 2:44 left Christian White and Chris Barnes combined to take down Trevell Adams for a 9-yard loss. The Bulldogs finally got on the scoreboard when, DeShawn Cunningham out ran the entire Cowboys defense for a 67-yard score.Martin Malachi missed the point after kick and this remained a 22=6 game, with 2:09 left in the half.

"Unfortunately, we couldn't be on top in two of those games. We played some good matchups in our first three games. We are looking to move forward and finish the season 6-0," he said.

It was a cloudy day and the Sherwood soccer team was trying to protect their undefeated 2-0-1 season, playing their rivals, Oak Hills. They were at home, they needed to win this game. They hate this team, but now down 3-0 at halftime it would be hard to come back from this.

Today is the big day, the team and I are stretching and full of confidence for this game. Coach Jane had all of us work very hard the past 4 months, the hard work, sweating, red swollen hands and wrists, painful none stop stretching and working out, putting so much time and effort into this will all pay off today. We feel more than ready to win this competition. We will go against DeKalb, Fort Wayne, and Wayne center. I feel very proud that I was chosen as the best server in the team, which is a very important part of volleyball. After we were done with a good stretch, we scurried up to the court to start our practicing. All of us excitingly got into our positions.
