5page Diary Entry For Rebound By Bob Krech
Raymod's Diary Entry:
Dear Diary,
Today was tryouts for the Franklin High School boys’ basketball team. I am a sophomore this year, I am proud that I made it this far. This year will be my first year trying out for a basketball team. I am nervous, what if I am not good enough for a team? There was only 2 other white kids there at the tryouts. During the drills I think I did pretty well, but when we started doing ball handling drills…. I think that’s where I messed up. Some boy that was smaller than me kept stealing the ball from me. It started to irritate me. When we started the scrimmages nobody passed me the ball, it was like I wasn’t even there. It seemed like I was a ghost or something. What disappointed me the most was when the coach walked around asking everyone their shoe sizes, but me! I knew I didn’t make the team for sure. I had so much stuff running through my mind. I knew I had to do better, work harder. I will practice more in order to make the team next year.
Dear Diary,
I decided to try out for the basketball team one more time. I went with my friend Pruze. He moved here from Chicago. Pruze is a big kid, but he is a really good basketball player. I always play basketball with him. He’s one of my closes friends. During tryouts today I noticed that the coach kept looking at Robert, he was on the team last year. During our scrimmage today I had to play against Robert. He scored on me a couple times. I got called for an offensive foul even though HE was pushing me the whole time. Today at tryouts I did better, I made all my shots. I felt more confident in myself. I had to play against this boy named Rudy; he alwaysss had something to say. Unfortunate for me he scored no points, while me? I hit two jumpers and a three pointer at the whistle. I thought my performance was better today than last time at tryouts. It turned out that wasn’t good enough for the team, I didn’t make it.
Dear Diary,
During the summer, Purze
