I woke to the sound of my alarm clock going off, “Beep, Beep, Beep, Beep.” It was 7:00 in the morning; the usual time I get up to go to school, but like usual I slam on the snooze button and sleep for another five minutes. After hitting the snooze button three times I finally got up. Today is the day, our first doubleheader of the season is against Rockford. The coach is starting me at left field and it is my first game ever starting in high school game. I’m a Sophomore at Atwood High School; my family and I moved here during my Freshmen year of high school, so I’m fairly new here.
Mom greeted me downstair, “ good morning sweetie, are you ready for the game tonight?”
“ I don’t know mom, I guess I’m kinda nervous” I said.
“Why is That” she asked. …show more content…
Rockford got 2nd in state last year, and returned everyone last year. We lost to them in the championship game of regionals last year.
“You’ll be fine, just have confidence and you’ll do great” mom said.
When we finished talking I got into the cabinet and grabbed some cereal and started eating breakfast. After that I hopped in the shower and brushed my teeth. Coach advised the team to where an Atwood baseball shirt to school. I put on my jeans and Atwood baseball shirt and went to school.
Now I was not what you would call a great student. I didn’t get in trouble all the time, I just never really tried getting good grades. This year so far I have had a ton of missing assignments. Coach has been putting a lot of pressure on me to get my grades up because I’m close to being ineligible. During first hour I couldn’t stop thinking about the game. I was getting nervous for the game. Rockford had both starting pitchers from last year returning, and one of them can throw up to 90
