    I felt slightly discouraged; I did not try out my first year for any sports. My sophomore year in high school, I felt like I knew I can do anything if I put my mind to it and sure enough as cliche as it sounds it worked out; I participated in the tryouts and made it to the final cut.

I have always excelled in my position, right field, with zero errors; I was slightly cocky. I would have been fully cocky if my throwing was a good as my ego was. Although I made the team…
