Seniors

I am going to miss our seniors so much. Basketball season is going to be so weird without them. I am especially going to miss Ginger. I looked up to her every year since I was a freshman. She was basically my role model and the only reason i didn't quit the team. She has no idea how big of an impact she has had on me, but it is true. I guess when you are older you don't realize the affect you have on younger kids. I was the only kid from college view on the basketball team besides a girl that everyone hated when I was a freshman. I didn't want to end up like her. I wanted everyone to like me so instead of talking, I kept my mouth shut so I wouldn't act stupid. I think that just distanced me even more. I never got any encouragement and I never talked to anyone on the team. All it took was a few nice words to turn everything around. All she said was "Good shot!" but for some reason it gave me hope and kept me on the team. This year I changed a lot and became a lot closer to our seniors. Ginger and Brianna are hilarious. They make playing the game fun. Bre is an excellent basketball player and without her we wouldn't have been much at all. I think, even though no one will admit it, Jana kept our team together. She was like the mom and leader of the team. She made sure we all stayed on track and we definitely needed that this season. I wish the best of luck to these 4 amazing people as they make a transition to life outside of high school. You have all been very important to me and I hold you very dear to my heart. I love you guys!
