    The chilling breeze brushed up against my skin, thankfully drying up some of the sweat that was finding its way into my eyes. My hand still trembling with nervousness, and my stomach churning with nausea. I was approaching the basket and the crowd starts to rise like a Tsunami. As I got really close to the basket I got into my layup position. Taking two swift steps and then just simply serving the ball on to the backboard.

The strategy we had was to continue fouling them so it stopped the clock and gave us a better chance to score a few points. The strategy backfired and left me incredibly injured. I tried to reach for the basketball and pulled at it throwing me on the floor and the other player right on top of me, breaking two of my ribs. Even today I remember the sound of my ribs cracking, it was the sound of a tree branch that was just stepped on.

    All the long, hard, and tiring hours of preparation were finally put into play. During the midst of the try-out I couldn’t help but imagining me in one of the Carlisle uniform actually representing someone and doing that while playing the sport that I love. It was 5:15 on the final day and the coaches announced that they would be pulling us out into the hallway to tell us which team we were on; the literal feeling was that my heart was in my throat because it was beating that fast.

I kind of dozed off for the first part and the only words that mattered to me were “Congratulations Jacob, you made it on the JV team this year and we are very excited to have you on the team this year” I started getting teary eyed because hearing those words come out of his mouth just meant the world to me!

    In a casual manner, a high school freshman strolled off the brick path into the damp turf directly towards a basketball court located on the other side of the field. Slowly, he passed a brash orange basketball from hand to hand, as he waded gingerly through the wet grass, not eager to get grime on his navy blue shoes. The autumn breeze swept the aroma of petrichor, along with the maroon and gold maple leaves dancing around him, until they pirouetted into the park’s muddy grass. In the distance a glowing ball of yellow light hung, rising slowly from the horizon.
