more teams, with the tournament in two days. With our advisors and the vice principal leaning towards canceling the event, my council had two choices: get eight more teams to sign up or call off the event. I didn’t want to cancel because I knew that as Junior and Senior year approached, we needed more money to fund our proms and class trips. After school ended, I sped to our advisors’ room. We all pitched ideas, from decreasing the number of team members to changing the tournament date. I wasn’t…
me. Fishing doesn’t just involve fun on the weekends any more to some anglers it's a life passion. Another reason i have chosen this occupation is because I started fishing B.A.S.S. High School Fishing tournaments. So far I have fished at least fifteen tournaments. I have not yet won a tournament, but have placed in the top ten. Professional bass fishing is a payed sport such as football or baseball,…
compete against another or others for entertainment purposes. So many people say that there is a definitive line between sports and competitive gaming, but is their really? Videogames should be considered an actual sport because of team play, the tournaments, and the fact that just like sports such as football and baseball you need to practice, practice, practice. Videogames incorporate a lot of team play; you need to rely on your team to protect you or the object or to help with taking the…
year the year off playing short stop and played there for several games. During the Cedar Creek tournament, I injured my wrist throwing a ball from short stop to first base. I was taken from my position and put into left field. I continued to move around the field and I never had a permanent position. I ended the season playing in left field at the state tournament. I did not do well in this tournament considering that outfield is not what I am strongest at. I missed a ball that was hit to me…

This tournament was a six team tournament and your team has to be one of the top teams in your state to be invited. My team is called Blitz United and at this time we were top three in the state of Oklahoma. It was an honor for my team to be in this tournament but no one actually believed that we could make it to the finals. This tournament started off with a bang. The…

as something you do on a Friday night with a bunch of friends while drinking alcoholic beverages. Although these people do not see many of the youth and adult bowlers getting up early on Saturday morning and traveling out of state to different tournaments every weekend. This sport has so much to offer, if people would actually take the time to look into it they could actually start winning scholarship money or even cash money. This sport provides an outlet for the youth to meet new friends and…
basketball tournament, and the Cincinnati Reds baseball game. Kings Island was probably my favorite part about the trip, because you had tons of things to do including, ride roller coasters, eat, and play mini games. The amusement park had about six main roller coasters including the vortex, the diamondback, and Etc. My favorite was the diamondback, because it had a huge drop. Kings island was definitely an unforgettable experience. My AAu team went the for the boys national basketball…
