The Game As I approached the football field for practice I heard someone call out,
“Yo Austin.” I looked back to see one of my teammates.
“What’s up Logan?” I said.
“Ready for the big game this Sunday?”
“No not really I have been sleepless all week because of it.”
“You’ll be fine Austin just review the plays the coach taught us and you’ll do great.”
“That’s the problem I make mistakes whenever I’m nervous about games like these.”
“Don’t be foolish, I’ve seen what you can do, all you have to do is be careful.”
“I know Logan, let’s just get to practice.”
“Ok Austin lets go.”
“When we got onto the field, our coach yelled “Ok, everyone huddle up.”
“We all know the championship game is coming up.”

He was the tallest of all the receivers so I had to work with him as best as I could the rest of the week and we have gotten better in our understanding of each other. When game day came I had butterflies in my stomach and I was unhopeful for what the outcome might be. During the game we were down 27-28 and only 25 seconds on the clock and I was figuring out what to do. We were getting closer to the end zone but the defense somehow had stopped us and now we have just one chance to score or we would lose. I looked at my new receiver and asked
