That summer, Simpson’s father, Phil, who was a great athlete in his own right, called and asked me if I could take him to the Five Star Basketball camp in Pittsburgh. Every July I would take several of the top players in our area to Five Star, an invitation only camp that featured many of the best high school players in the country. I told Phil that I did not think he would get in because the camp’s youngest players were rising sophomores and Greg was only entering his freshman year. I gave him an application and told him to give it a try but not to be disappointed

This novel develops characters that engage in sex, to teachers cheating so their high school football players can continue to participate on the football field. Many people have a major affect on football and society in this novel. One of the major characters was Boobie Myles. Boobie was supposed to be the star athlete on the Permian football team. In the beginning, Boobie was arrogant to his teammates and wasn’t a good team leader. All Boobie cared about was winning and getting to the next level of football to satisfy his athletic needs. When Boobie is injured, he realizes he took football for granted and would do anything to play again. The team needs Boobie and Boobie needs the team. Coach Gaines realizes Boobie was seriously hurt and gives an inspiring pep talk to the team about how the players need to put their heart in the game and how lucky they are to be playing for Odessa.

There aren’t any footsteps or shouts, which is unfortunate as it would signal help is nearby. Daniel is crying beneath him, clutching at his right knee, one of the two he seems to have now, covered by baggy jeans that are turning darker in the poor lighting. Carter and Daniel go through the routine of determining the injury severity. Carter’s heart rate is high. The light, crisp air rushes into and out of his lungs as he subverts his panic. The two of them are 150 feet into the woods on a gravel trail behind the horse pen. Carter glances around in the dark, looking for sticks or something to brace Daniels grotesque knee. He grabs two branches, each about an inch in diameter and two feet in length, then takes off the gym socks he has worn five days this week without washing. Placing the twigs on either side of Daniel’s leg he ties one sock around the knee and another around the ankle. This boy must be dumb. Hillcrest is on the other side of camp, where everyone else is. Carter looks around for his backpack, that’s right, he left it at the cabin for the game. He pats his pockets looking for his phone. Empty. He surveys the area and doesn’t see where it may have landed in the collision and gives it up as lost. Gently tying his faded shirt around the dark patch, Carter stands. He places his arms under Daniel’s and lifts him to his feet. Daniel’s face is contorted and frightening cast in

South Carolina football was founded in 1892. They have had many good seasons and some bad seasons. For example, they have won their division which is the SEC once.

Leaping up out of his soft, comfy bed, Biff Carter couldn’t have been more prepared for that night. Throwing on his football jersey, pushing his long blonde hair back, and brushing his perfect white teeth, Biff raced downstairs and grabbed an apple and a banana for breakfast - an ideal breakfast for a huge game day. Once at school, Biff could hardly sit still, constantly violently shaking his leg and consistently tapping his pencil. Tonight was the big football championship - the first time in twenty years that the team has been to the championships. Once in third period, administration made the announcement on the intercom to dismiss the football team to the buses. Finally the football team made it to Miami, visiting the tremendous football

Monday afternoon when David got home he got a phone call from Alabama’s Head Coach, Nick Saban. Saban said,” Hey, David.This is Nick Saban. I was calling to say I heard about your performance Friday night, and I would love to have you come out, so I could see what all the talk is about.” David agreed and scheduled a tryout for that coming up Saturday. Once David got off the phone, he wrote down on every calendar “ALABAMA TRYOUT” for September 6. After he finished writing on the calendars and was able to tone down his high-pitched, excited girl squeals into a more manly fashion, he called his friends to tell them the good news. His friends were excited for him because they knew how long he had been wishing for this day to come. They decided to throw a party for David Friday night to celebrate this big moment for

It was two weeks before the state championship game and Ella and her team had been working really hard to win. Every year Ella's team had made it to state and every year they had lost in the first round. Ella wanted to change that this year and so far it looked like Ella and her team were on the right track. They got up at 5 AM every morning to go to practice at 5:30 and then turned around to go to practice at 3 everyday after school. Their coach drilled them so hard that they could've done every play, drill, and made every shot in their sleep.

His little legs churned as fast as they could driving him straight at his opponent. I sensed Matthew wasn’t too sure of himself since he had never expressed any confidence playing our football games or in practices; but this time, the young defender responsible for guarding him was smaller, and Matt had the advantage. He staccato stepped and faked running to the right just as we had planned. His opponent accepting the feigned shift, ran in the misdirection. Suddenly, Matt was all alone in the end-zone; and the football, a perfectly thrown pass designed for Matt, was spiraling toward his small opened hands. The ball hit his palms and bounced skyward, but Matt quickly reached up and grabbed the football securing his touchdown. The families in the stands cheered, and Matt returned to the sideline with a smile and a little more confidence. I coach Matt’s third grade 7 on 7 football team, and this is my third year of competitive football league coaching. Coaching is a luxury I afford myself with my limited free time, and it brings me a lot of satisfaction.

One rainy night in November, I arrived to the church gym for my first basketball practice of the season. As I walked in the doors creaked and you could smell the gym floor. As I already heard the basketballs hitting the ground, bouncing up and down. My friends Brittany and Destiny walked in right behind me through the door. That was when we realized we were the only girls surrounded by all guys. As practice came to a start we began to run, it felt like we were never going to stop. Up and down the court as we ran suicides, you could hear the squeaking of shoes as we went from the next line back and then on to the next. Before we started scrimmaging, the two captains were boys. Brittany, Destiny, and I stood in amazement as we were the last three standing there. You could see by their expressions they didn’t want any of us on either team.
