State Championship: A Fictional Narrative

It was the day of the State Championship, the final day to play, and if they lost two times they’re out of the tournament, and her team would have to go home. Her team is called the Bandits they haven’t lost a game yet. Peyton had a moment to think, while she was lying in her bed, her mind was wandering off to when here team would win the game. Soon after she drifted off she hopped out threw on her teams red and grey uniform, and ran into the car. When she got in she placed her headphones on her head, then played her team song “T.N.T.” by her favorite band ACDC. It had taken a long hour in the car to get to the freshly prepared field, but that made Peyton even more pumped. “CLACK CLACK” Peyton stepped out of her Dad’s car with metal scraping the ground making a unmistakable noise.
“Dad, Look! "Peyton uttered.

“It’s just what?" the coach asked, with confusion in his face. He was a tall man with a brown stubbly face, but wore a hat over his bald head. He always cared for his players, and felt poorly when he made them sit.
“Lauren on the other team yelled out a mean remark, which was how I would mess up, and now I feel like I’m going to do that, so I do,” The sadness upon Peyton’s face got to the coach, and so the coach stopped the game.
“Blue, can I talk to you, we have a player on the other team said a mean remark to one of my players on the bench, in the middle of the game, and I would like to remind you, none of that talk is allowed,” the coach said firmly knowing it was the right thing to do.
The umpire approached the dugout, and asked Peyton this quick question, “Is this true?" Peyton nodded her head, because she did not feel like talking at the moment. “Then who said it?” the ump questioned in return to the nod he had been

He finds a double covered, third string running back streaking down the field. He throws the ball as hard as he can. The ball travels a total of three yards before an oncoming Julius Peppers snags it out of the air. “Interception! He’s at the thirty. The twenty. The ten. He could go all the way! Touchdown!” This was the play that capped off my brothers 56-0 beat-down of me in our Blackfoot cousins Madden tournament. Taking a moment to comprehend what had just happened, I stared at the screen in disbelief. The entire ensuing minute was madness. “You cheated!”, “That would…

    It was the middle of the summer and I was playing baseball in Jackson, Mississippi. I was playing for the Goodlettsville All-Stars. We were playing in the little league 10u world series. To get to the championship we had to win 8 games and it was single elimination. We had won 7 out of 8 games and we were playing our 8th game and it was the bottom of the third and I was playing left field. In the second inning I was felling drowsy so my dad gave me a Snickers and a Red Bull. I was for sure not drowsy anymore. I could feel the sugar rushing through my veins and I was on the balls of my feet waiting for the pitch to be thrown. When my pitcher threw the ball I had my hand in my glove ready for the ball if it was hit to me. WHAM! The ball was hit so far up in the air it looked like it hit the sun. When I realized that the ball was coming to me I was way too far back so I had to run as fast as I could and dive for the ball. I jumped as far as I could and stretched as far as I could. I barely caught it by snow coning the ball. Everybody was so proud of me that the screamed as loud as they could. We went on to win the game 4-1. The next day I woke up, jumped out of the bed, and put my uniform on. I was so excited, I was in the championship! I…

    The cool fall air brought light goose bumps to my arms. Still a bit bothered by the cold, I took my long brown hair out of its usual ponytail and let it spread out across my back, warming my in the slightest. I rubbed my arms absentmindedly, looking around for Octavia. We always met here, on the metal bleachers, which rose above the green football field, waiting until the practice was over and Jake could drive us home. When I realized that she wasn’t anywhere near me, I turned my attention to the players on the field. The football team this year is supposed to be amazing, at least, from what I have been told and from what I have seen. Basically every student at Arrowsmith High School’s life revolved around football, or so it seemed. It…

    As the day started with the sound of cars passing by with the engine roaring, I knew it was time to go. I awoke from a dream that a 17-year would have about sports, specifically a 17-year old with the championship game, that happened to be on that day as well. I had the utmost confidence that my teammates and I will be able to deliver something that couldn’t be done by the last “dream team.” Those players had the utmost belief in each other and seemed that they knew where each person would go. It seemed they had a psychological connection, which I presume came from the relationship they had off the court. I would see them roaming the hallways with a smile that would give anyone belief that they can achieve those miracles. As time passed they grew older, flew towards a new goal. One became an assistant coach at UC Berkeley, one is fighting to become one of the starters and prove his worth at Washington State, and others stayed at community College still hoping there dream of playing college basketball becomes a reality. Now, after those long practices where you had players saying…
