Volleyball
is my favorite sport. This year we had a different coach, which means a
different practice routine. Mary was more about the conditioning. We had to do several drills.
For our mistakes we had consequences, which involved doing various exercises. I’m
not complaining or anything, but it made us push ourselves of not wanting to do
these workouts. It got easier as we continued to do the exercises.
For
some practices we would have scrimmages against village people, and when we
did, people got to watch us, and that made me a little bit nervous.
We
went to Kokhanok on the 19th.
About an hour after we got there we had to play a game against the
Levelock Vikings. So we went to go get our jerseys on and stretch out in the
library. We got new jerseys this year; we are called the Flaming Stars going
back in time. I like the jerseys they are nice. The colors we got are gold,
white, and black. We were thinking of a
different color and we almost got the color green. The Flaming Stars come from
a song written by Elvis Presley.
We
won all of the games against the Vikings, maybe it was the new jerseys. This
put us in the next round against the Perryville Eagles. They were an all-boy
team versus us, an all-girl team. It was good match-up. They won the first, but
we rallied and won the second. The third game was tough and Perryville beat us.
This put us in the game for third place.
We
were playing against the hometown team and a lot of people were cheering for
them and there was a big crowd of people and I didn’t really remember anything
about it. Except that we won.
I
was happy that we came home in third place for three-man team. It was a great
time in Kokhanok. Can’t wait till next years volleyball season.
