I played sophomore baseball for Senior over the summer. It was the best season I've ever had as a Dubuque Senior High School baseball player. I was the pitcher on the team, also known as the "Ace". Before the last couple of games we had an anonymous team vote on which award people should get. At the end of the season we had a potluck with the varsity team and the sophomore team. Everyone showed up with haircuts and their parents. When I got there I just saw everyone in a circle talking to each…

An elderly woman looks across the room to her spouse, finding him smiling back. His soft skin is now creased by age, one for every smile, one for every laugh, and one for every tear through the years of their marriage. His frail frame is covered by a hospital gown that is barely visible underneath the blankets covering his body. There is silence except for the hissing of a machine filling his lungs with oxygen. Suddenly a soft knock resonates on the wood of the door before a shorter woman walks…

I slipped my feet into my dirt filled cleats and tied the old crusty laces. I heard the thud of a baseball hitting someone’s mitt as my teammates began to play catch and start our warm up routine. I could feel the crunching of dirt from my cleats as I trotted out to my usual position of second base. I fielded the ground balls thrown by our first basemen and heard the classic yelling of, “Coming down!” from our catcher as he threw the ball down to me covering second base. We threw the ball around…

loaded, and down by one run is both a baseball player’s most glorious dream and most onerous nightmare. This dream was my opportunity as I stepped up to the plate in the Delaware Regional Senior League championship game. The few metal bleachers near home plate at Leroy Hill Park were packed with families from all around Delaware, meanwhile those without a space set up lawn chairs around the outfield fence. Every single person at the field, whether they have played baseball since they 6 years…

I truly enjoy all aspects of baseball. I started playing this sport at the very young age of four when I joined my first baseball team. I remember not being able to come close to hitting any ball pitched to me and practicing endlessly with a batting tee until I was able to finally do so. My love for baseball was also nurtured by the first major league game my father and I attended at the age of five, which was between the NY Yankees and the Boston Red Sox. From that point on I always associated…

young, nursing homes and assisted living facilities have intrigued me and made me wonder about what goes on behind the closed doors. For years, I have heard about how the elderly are lonely and often mistreated when put in these facilities, but once actually talking to workers from these facilities, I learned that this is very untrue. Residents are given more opportunities and better care than ever before according to the workers I talked to from these facilities. Both Nursing homes and Assisted…
