The Junior Varsity

adversity I have faced involved school and sports. During my freshman year of high school, I played Junior Varsity Soccer and performed well in school at the same time. I had no problems with anything. I felt like there was nothing bad that could happen to me. That was until sophomore year started. Sophomore year I made the Varsity Soccer team. The goalkeeper and I were the only sophomores on varsity. I subtlety felt entitled and this built off of my confidence and cockiness after freshman year. I

My freshman year on the junior varsity football team I was not a great athlete; I wasn’t fast or strong and generally didn’t know much about the sport, and as a result, I didn’t get a lot of playing time. About half way through the season I became significantly better at playing football and earned a starting position. Then, during practice one day, I unfortunately broke my left fibula, and had to watch the rest of the season on the sideline. This injury set me back pretty far and made it difficult

Last year I went to a different high school and I was part of the Junior Varsity soccer team. It was my second year playing for the team and I was elected to be the team Captain by most of my teammates and even the coach. I was chosen to be captain on a practice before our first game, I told myself that I will lead my team to victory and win all of our games to take the B.V.A.L title for J.V. We ended up winning our first game but it was hard because we had no communication on the field. Since I

sophomore he was cut from the varsity basketball team, and instead his 6’7’’ friend Leroy Smith made the team. Varsity head coach, Fred Lynch decided that the varsity team needed Leroy Smith’s size, and thought Michael at 5’ 10’’ was too short and needed to develop his skills in order to be a reliable contributor to the varsity team. Michael had no choice but to play on the junior varsity team, which greatly frustrated him, because he felt like he was good enough to make the varsity team. ‘’It was embarrassing

this belief. At the start of my junior year of McNeil High School I was put in the varsity class for one month. I would train with the returning varsity players and learn from the varsity coach. Ever since my freshman year of high school, I dreamed about becoming a varsity player and now had the opportunity to make it. However, at the end of that month I had received news that I did not have the capability to become a varsity player and was moved down to junior varsity. This was probably one of the

how well they did together. There were two teams for middle school. A Varsity and a Junior Varsity with 8th grade and 7th grade put on the same teams. It was extremely difficult to place and select each player and put them on teams. But every player worked and gave it their all this season. “The softball season was a success with both teams. The varsity did phenomenal except for one weekend, and the junior varsity didn’t win as much but gave it their all and played with everything they had

the varsity team as a freshman is downright terrifying. My ninth grade year, I played on the junior varsity volleyball team one time with my classmates; after that tournament, I was pulled up by my coach to play with the seniors and juniors, and I was truly afraid. I never thought my skills could surpass anyone older than me. My middle school career was sub-par, and I was just happy to be on the court. After playing in one tournament with a decent amount of court time on junior varsity, I was

to me: “Megan Reading: freshman team.” It stuck with me like the back of my thighs which had melted onto the seat and were permanently attached to it. I could have never believed that I would end up on the freshman soccer team. Varsity I knew was a stretch but junior varsity seemed doable to me. Nothing in my

Our presentation will summarize the Army Crew Team Case, discussing the differing leadership characteristics between the Varsity Crew and the Junior Varsity Crew. In 1852, Harvard and Yale had their respective crews compete against one another, which began the tradition of sports in American universities. Today’s standards require that crewmates make a year-long commitment to the team. However, the racing that we commonly associate with crew does not occur until Spring. The ultimate goal of a crew
