348 Words2 Pages
On September sixteenth at two o’clock in the afternoon, the Trojans went against Converse in a game of volleyball in the Korengay arena in Mount Olive. It started off a little rough for us but we picked it up later on. The game ended at 3:30 with the university of Mount Olive being victorious once again. The high school I went to was very small and did not have any sports so it was very interesting to see and remember how into sports people got. Though there was not a very large turnout for this game, the support for our home team was strong. People were cheering in support of our team especially when we tied up or got close to twenty-five points. I did think I would see more people there, but maybe that was just because it was earlier on

Characterization of General Zaroff In Richard Connell's “The Most Dangerous Game”, the main antagonist, General Zaroff is characterized as intimidating and predatory. Through the use of vivid descriptions and dialogue, Connell effectively creates a sense of fear and danger surrounding Zaroff. The general's predatory nature is highlighted through his admission to hunting One way Zaroff is indirectly characterized as intimidating through his description, “..almost bizarre quality about the generals face… his eyes were black and very bright... sharp-cut nose, a spare, dark face, the face of a man used to giving orders, the face of an aristocrat” (30).

Generally, the overall atmosphere of the Coliseum is upbeat and energetic but the atmosphere can change depending on how well the team is playing and the types of calls made by the referees. I chose the Coliseum as a location because there are mass amounts of people, generally a positive atmosphere and it is an excellent way to observe people acting naturally amongst their family and friends. However, this was an incredibly close game that went into double overtime so emotions were on high as fans anxiously awaited a Mountaineer victory. When I attend games at the Coliseum, I’m seated in the upper student section that is filled with both Gen Z and Gen Y students and an occasional Gen X fan. At this week’s game

When we versed East Grand Rapids at their pool, their crowd was one of the most enthusiastic but we still beat them pretty handily. Hence the crowd does help and it kept the game close, it isn't always enough to pull out the big upset. Upsets can happen, and crowds do help, but they aren’t enough on their own. The team will still need the talent to win. A good loyal fan base is a must for all sports teams.

I began playing water polo my freshman year at Archbishop Mitty, and I never thought it would make such a remarkable impact on my life. I was thinking in the beginning, maybe I’ll just do one year, or most two, but that has dramatically changed over the past three years. I can genuinely say that I have fallen in love with the sport. I don’t want to play just throughout my high school years, I want more, I want to play in college, I want to try out for the Olympic team, and after that I want to coach others and see their passion for the sport as well. Water Polo has done a lot for me in my life, it has introduced me to my two best friends, given me an outlet, and most importantly taught me how to be a leader, My best friends play important

In school ball it’s mostly just fun and games but if “the games” have a more important meaning, than a higher level of basketball is something to think about. For a more competitive atmosphere, AAU basketball would be the way to go rather than school ball because of the players, overall atmosphere, and the practices. When assigned to defend one specific player I know that it’s one of the more important and better girls on the team. But how does coach know who for me to guard before the games even start? Simple.

Putting the fun back into physical activity for children will do wonders to foster PA. You don’t see children playing in neighborhoods anymore. A constructive approach to developing outdoor free play is, in my opinion, the cornerstone of developing a love of doing, moving, and being physically active. Many children don’t enjoy the harshness of competitive sport (I was one of them) but do enjoy being out and about doing things. As a child play that involved running, cycling, swimming, and skating were all the things that I truly loved.

Curling is a very cold, unpopular sport that I have known since I was four years old, when my parents started a curling club. Now, I am not talking about a curling iron that makes your hair look nice. I am talking about the sport of curling that is played on ice with rocks and brooms. To me, curling does not seem like an odd, unknown sport. Yet within the world of sports, it is not very common, but generally people have heard of it because of the Winter Olympics.
