Touchdown

“Swish,” you just made the game-winning-shot, the team crowds you. Everyone yelling your name, holding you over their heads.The coach brings your team the trophy. Moments like these help you with stress and get you self esteem. Sports at school can give you exercise and happiness. One reason schools should keep sports is because they provide health and exercise. Many people around the world are overweight. They probably didn’t play sports as a kid. Sports can burn off fat by running, lifting…

championship game was on the line. Sweat dripping from my body likes wet towels being drench by hand. Fans’ shouting from both sides of the stands as the game is continuing on. The only thing that’s running through my mind is scoring the winning touchdown and all the fans celebrating with my team and I. Before the Quarterback snaps the ball, I took a deep breath as if it would have been my last and nod my head. The ball shoves into the Quarterback hand and everybody collide into each other like…

your team a better fighting chance. Elijah McGuire Elijah McGuire is a running back for the New York Jets. He’s a rookie looking to make his mark this season. In the game against the Jaguars he rushed for 93 yards, which included a 69-yard touchdown. The Jets won that game in overtime. McGuire is also going to have to step up his game because Bilal Powell has injured his calf and could be out entirely. This is McGuire’s…

South Dakota and continued playing, and he brought that same fighting attitude to the Packers. He had an unusually long career for someone who played in the NFL’s first decade, but he was productive until the end. In fact, Woodin scored the only touchdown of his career in his final game on a 5-yard interception return. He also kicked three extra points in the first two games of the 1931 season. As of his next to last season, Woodin hadn’t missed a practice in nine years, the Green…

After a dreadful attendance of only 21,000 for last year's spring game, Coach Jim McElwain and crew tried something different this year to boost attendance by hosting the game on a Friday night for the first time in history, and it paid off. As kickoff approached, University Ave was flooded with pedestrians in orange and blue apparel. Football was in the air, at least for a night, but that was good enough to bring together 46,000 fans and over 40 recruits into The Swamp to watch the Gators.…

the sun was still shining through. It really felt like football season again. When we got into the game it was clear that we had a lot of chemistry. My memory from that game was my second run; I broke outside and ran over a kid for about a 60-yard touchdown. I felt like we built off that. It really showed us that we could rely on one another and kind of reinforced that bond that we shared. It really set a tone for the rest of the season, and we knew that we could rely on one another to do the…

Jim Thorpe Imagine flying past defenders, swishing into a crisp white net. Diving into a grassy, muddy endzone for a winning touchdown. Or jumping over a bar higher than ever seen in your life. These are just a few things Jim Thorpe accomplished. He was mostly known for his incredible athletic ability in track and field, but was outstanding in many other sports as well. People even suggest that he is the greatest athlete of all time. And it all started in an old log cabin in Oklahoma. Growing up…

When children play tackle football they put their whole future on the line. Once a child puts on that helmet and pads and steps on the field they risk their future on playing that game, “Children are our greatest treasure, They are our future” (Mandela 2).

Most children drop out of sports by the age of thirteen, the main reason for that is…
