Surviving Middle school

Tryouts

Tryouts are coming, and I get more nervous as the hour. Christian keeps telling me there's nothing to worry about. In my head, was I listening?NOO! Let's just say I was outside for a half hour, everyday working on layups, and my jump shot form. Bryce says that whenever I shoot, my leg goes U in a funny way. I don't believe. Heck, he shoots to the left side weirdly. Tryouts came, and this year the administration decided to do them by period. It was the second semester, so me and Christian walk to D period PE everyday, together." Remember Darrin, don't worry about anyone else. Just focus on what you have to do. Your a good player, so stick to it." I had this. I brought my basketball sleeves, and shoes. I had kobes, and Christian had his Jordan xx9's. He couldn't Stop sending messages to me about them on Christmas. Christian's PE coach is the basketball coach, so he tested mr first on dribbling skills. Christian gave me a thumbs up from the layups station before I took my run. I mouthed back "good luck" and coach gave me the ball. I dribbled through the defenders no problem. Next was a jump shot. I tried my best to keep my leg down, cause Bryce was next for dribbling, and I knew he'd Be watching me. Like always, he'd claim that "the cow went over the moon. Meaning The cow is the leg, going up. Next was layups. 10 in a row to pass. Let me just put it out there that in really good at layups, and free throws. I can do a really good euro step layup. I decided to go simple, and I started with a 2 handed layup. Then I did a fake pass to the right, and went up with it. Went in. I made my next 8 too. I went a solid 8/10 on my free throw. In F period, coach went over the intercom." I'm here to announce the players for the 2015 Riverview basketball team. Point guards will be Christian Corbett, and Bryce Meeks, shooting guards will be Darrin Holloman, Savion Knight, and Blake meeks. My class congratulated me so Much I was about to fall out of my seat." Small forwards will be Drew Johnson, Jackson Systma, and Brandon Holloman. Power forwards:Eddy Micheals, and Gabe Brown. Our centers will be: Chris James, and Chad Blue. It felt good to hear my name. #Amazing!
