Andrew,
Excellent post! Your thoughts were communicated very clearly and I enjoyed reading about your incredible year in basketball. I have been teaching junior high students since 1997 and have NEVER taught a 6′4″ 8th grader; you were made for basketball.
Your post was pleasant to read primarily because of your varied sentence starters. So many young writers begin every sentence with “I”, but yours were interesting and showed great communications skills. Good luck with future writing and shooting!
