Personal Narrative: B Ball Game
B-Ball Game!!! I remember the one day, it was early in the morning and I was going to my basketball game. We stopped to help this lady get home by giving her a ride. Then once we dropped the lady off at her house we drove off and had to stop for some deer to cross the road. Once the deer crossed the road, we were finally off to the game, we made it to the game with time to spare. With the time we had to spare I had some biscuits and gravy, and i devoured them in seconds and had some orange juice after.

After finishing my breakfast the game started and I was a starting point guard and i was also the jumper. I tipped the ball to my team we started with it. By the end of the first quarter we were up 12-0 with all points scored by me. In the second quarter we started with the ball and immediately scored on the other team. After scoring the immediate basket we all knew this quarter was going to be like the first one, a total blow out. We ended the second quarter 21-0 still with all points scored by me.

After the third and fourth quarter we ended the game 44-6 with 36 points scored by me. Third quarter 12 points were made by me, and fourth quarter one 3 point shot was scored by me. After the game was over we went and got ice cream for the whole team. We all chose our favorite ice cream then devoured our ice creams as a team. After the ice cream we made a promise to each other that we weren’t going to lose a game at all this season, and we all went home and I will always remember this basketball game and how good of a team we were. This is my story, what is

    I started out on the bench because I was new.As I sat there and watched the girls I noticed there lighting speed, bolting up and down the court. Then it was finally time for me to go in.

    I didn’t get much playing time, since my coach had a son on the team, and I wasn’t the most talented 5th grade basketball player. I never really got passed the ball, and mostly watched my teammates airball jumpshots they had no chance of making. But, one game, I had my chance. Only six people showed up to our game, and after a couple “injuries” (mostly scraped knees and bruises), I was in the game! Then, it happened. Tired of running to and fro, 10 year old me reasoned that I would just wait at one end of the court for my teammates. After all, I had no role in the offense, what harm could I do? To my utter surprise, the ball came bouncing down from the…

    The vibration of the basketball hitting the ground is the best feeling the world. Light was shining through the humongous windows onto the worn out gym floor like a flash light. The other teams jerseys were as red as a rose...and as red as the blood pouring out of my mouth. Thats a good story. I am here to tell you about it.…

    I couldn’t believe what had happened to it, I was so mad. It was one of my favorite toys of all time and to see it in its condition made me sad. My dad used to be a P.E. teacher. One day he brought a bunch of his sports equipment home in a big blue bag. My sisters and I loved it when he brought his sports equipment home because we would always play with the tennis rackets, footballs, and everything else inside of the bag. There was a really nice red ball in the bag. It looked like a medium sized dodgeball, but it was a lot softer than a dodgeball. The ball was big with rough diamond shaped patterns all across it. It felt smooth and it bounced up and down very easily. I asked my dad if I could play with the ball and he said yes. I would…

    My slot play habits at Lucky Eagle have not changed over the years, so the significant loss in my Free Play is very frustrating considering the amount of time and money I spend at your casino each month.

    (The bride walks down the aisle towards her husband. The distance from the entrance of the church to the altar seems abnormally long. A cold drop of sweat rushes down along her spine. The flowers she is holding are visibly shaking as she slowly passes by the smiling onlookers. Her heartbeat is louder than her footsteps. She tries to breathe through her mouth to supply the now seemingly inadequate oxygen to her body. It is clear she is scared. Her mother, Mrs. Stones, realizes this and comes forth to meet her, holds her hand and squeezes it gently. Finally they arrive at the altar and her mother hands her over to her husband)…

    It was 95 degrees, the hottest day of the year so far. In my left ear I hear kids laughing and parents talking about how nervous they are about the game. In my right ear I hear my team, there nervous too but not for the same reason as the parents. As I stare forward I see the straight lines of chalk going from home to first base and third. Without one speck of chalk out of place. “How do they get the lines that straight.” I wonder. I’m trying not to think of who’s going to be here any minute now. As i’m thinking though I hear the gate to the softball field open. She’s here.…

    The anticipation of knowing whether we were going to be champions or not was very high as we played our hearts out on the court. Everything we'd practiced for was being put to the test in this one moment. It all came down to this last lay-up. Did we get the point? When I was eleven years old I played recreational basketball with a nearby playground called Susan Park. Me and my little brother both were involved in almost every sport they offered. My favorites were volleyball and basketball. Going to practice was the highlight of my day. I really put my heart into these sports. Our basketball team this particular year was undefeated. As a post player and shooting guard there was a lot of pressure on me to get the ball to the goal at any cost and that's ultimately what I did in every game. It was our championship game and the heat was on like never before. Recruiters from the All-Stars team were there to watch us and pick their favorites so the pressure was definitely on for the players who were looking to take it to the next level. The game starts and we're all basically in the warm-up stage of the game we'd score, they'd score, nothing too intense. All of a sudden we start getting into the climax of the game, only about five minutes left. We were only two points away from beating them and it was up to one person on our team to step up and go for the game winning lay-up, that person was me. There were a few seconds left of the game and we still had to get up the court and to the goal. As the referee blew the whistle my heart sank but I knew what I had to do. The ball was passed to me and with no hesitation I ran down the court as if I was the only person out there and went up for the lay-up like a pro and I made it! This was definitely the best day of my life. The crowd rushed towards me and picked me up just like in the movies, I felt like a star! After the crowd and everything calmed down and came to an end a recruiter from the all-star…

    Time came for the district tournament. I was pretty confident but still nervous at the same time. The next day we arrived at the school where the tournament was being held. My first match didn't go so well, the other wrestler ended up beating me by one point, we never got close to pinning each other. I had a lot of time in between my next match, so I thought about what I was going to do, and I decided that I was going to do whatever it took to win. The referee called my name over the speaker and I got ready for my next match. I walked onto the mat and shook the other wrestler's hand, and the match started. A few minutes went by and I could hear all my friends shouting "go go go!" which was a great energy boost. I ended up pinning the guy in the last period. It was a great feeling when the ref raised my hand. At the end of the day I was glad that I didn't quit when…

    Now the momentum was completely in my teams direction. We went on a 5 to 2 point run and with 1 minute left we had our first lead of the game by 1 point. The last minute was agonizing, because we didn’t even possess the ball for one minute. The opposing team kept shooting and shooting but none of their shoots would go in the hoop. Finally, in the final second of the game Kyle Coats drives hard to the hoop and misses. I gave the ref an ear full when she called a foul and gave him two foul shoots. Of course, he makes the first free throw with ease but the second one took a lucky bounce outside hope. Meaning that the game was going to overtime. Overtime was one 5 minute period winner takes all. I honestly couldn’t believe the even had overtime in intramural basketball. We drew first blood in overtime when Mike Tangredi made an easy lay up. Towards the end opposing player John Lane hit a long 2 pointer tying the game up. With a little bit more then a minute to go my teammate Joey Morath found me again in the corner for yet another 3 pointer. Unfortunately for the other team, they missed all there 3 pointers to tie the game and we took the win in…

    Then I tripped out of bounds. After that I threw a pass to the other team. After a while of doing really bad I thought no one would like me because I was bad. Eventually I didn’t think it could be any worse but then I got packed and turned the ball over right at the end of the 2nd quarter. Finally it was halftime, a time I could cool down and redeem myself. After 15 minutes of talking, the 3rd quarter started and I made five three pointers in a row. Then I crossed a kid up and then shot a layup. All of a sudden I was actually doing well after halftime. After the game ended a boy on my team came up to me and asked if I wanted to hangout sometime.…

    There were a lot of people at the game which made me worried, I was glad that I have sat out for a while then that changed when Coach Wallace called me in for post guard. In my mind, I said to myself, “ You got to be kidding me!” while I was heading to my spot. “Boing, Boing” that was the sound of my team dribbling the ball down the court and that is when the ball was passed to me. I held the ball in shock like a train had just gone through me and that is when the pressure came into place. The coach, team, and the crowd were pressuring my decision. My choice was to either pass the ball or shoot for a team point. At this moment, everything paused and in came a flash thought. If I were to shoot, I was afraid that I was going to miss, but my coach would like me to shoot. If I were to pass the, my coach would not like that. After this unnecessary thinking, I decided to shoot. “ Good job, Wendy!” my coach excitedly yelled, that is when I knew I made a basket. As the game was ended, I told myself, “ I made the best choice to shoot and now my team is…
