Personal Narrative: Jake Banfield

323 Words2 Pages

My best friend, Jake Banfield has impacted my life in numerous ways since the second grade. One of those would be basketball. We played together for 7 years all the way to our eighth-grade year. He is one year younger than me, but is probably one of my closest friends. I have had numerous memories with him by my side. A bulk of those memories come on the basketball court. We have won two ORES state championships, lost one, and not even make it to the state tournament with one another. I have shared countless practices with him and I believe that is a considerable reason we have become so close. Those practices that we have been through together have taught me a great deal about who he is and as well as myself. How to compete while controlling

    Tanner Ray Grandstaff, three words that when combined create a person, an identity. A tanner works with hides and turns it into leather by some process that is completely foreign to me. I have no experience with working with leather other than occasionally cleaning the leather in my car. I am actually the least likely person to be working with hides or anything that has to do with dead animals due to the fact that I have never been hunting. I feel as if I am a black sheep having grown up in Arkansas and Oklahoma the and every time one of my friends asks me about hunting, I just try to change the subject as soon as possible, otherwise I might be ridiculed and labeled as a city boy.

    It happened on June 11, 2015. My lacrosse team won our regional quarter final game the previous day—I scored my personal best of five goals and was named Player of the Game. As a reward for the win, my coach gave us a three hour practice the next day that was strictly conditioning—leaving the seniors 30 minutes to go home, shower, change, and drive to our Senior Dinner at Bowdoin College. I raced home from practice, my sweat sticking to the car leather seats, music blasting, and the wind in my hair. I had the future on my mind: playoffs, graduation, summer, and college.

    One of my best friends and also THE best basketball player I have ever played with, she showed me what it took to be a great athlete. Not only is she one of the best women’s basketball players in the country playing at UCONN, but she is also one of the humblest people I have ever met. I believe that she is another person that helped me find my passions for the game. Playing with her for 3 years was one of the best experiences for me because I was challenged by her hard work ethic every day in practice and got to guard her every single day. Being on the court with her for every practice made a huge impact on my game because she was such a phenomenal player to play against/with.
