Narrative Essay Number Two

          Have you been put done because you are too young or not good enough? Well, has that made you more determine to do something? I have and boy was it a journey.
          My team, the Niles Rangers, started off the season losing five games in the row. Our record half way through the season was 4-8. We had to win at least ten games to make it to the play offs. We won nine games but lose the two games we could. But it took the last game to clarify who will make it to the playoffs. It took unitl the last minute in the game to get the first goal which I scored. We made it to the playoffs as the eighth seed but we will be taking on the number one seed.
          The first game of the playoffs went into overtime when I scored the last goal and was the biggest upset of the playoffs. We had to face the number four seed and number two seed. We played the semifinals against the number three seed. It was a great game and somehow the worst team in the playoffs made it to the championship. We won all the games on the road to get to the championships just barely with every game being within one goal.
          The Championship game was versus the best team in the state. My team was very nervous and my team started the game like we started the season. Then after the first period the score was 4-0. My coach gave the "Miracle" speech which got people pumped up. We came out and got three goals in the second and third periods. With one minute to go we pulled our goal with me in the penalty box. There was five seconds left when I got out and suddenly I got a pass. With 1.8 seconds left I shot and just got it in between the goalie's blocker and the goal post. We went into a triple shot out and won championship.
          What I think got my team to win is determination. Everyone said we would lose and we weren't good enough. I loved to be underdogs and to prove that anybody can do anything if they set their mind to it. Boy did we show them.

  2. I really like how you and your team have a lot of determination about winning your game.

    For the first paraghraph try making it sound more clearer because it sounds all jumbled toghether.

    I like how in the last paragraph you said determination made you win,baecause that tells me how your attitude was toward the game.

  10. I liked the way you described it as the "miricle" speech

    I didn't really understand the part with the seeds

    The thing I liked the most was the last paragraph because you described it so well i could actually picture it.

  11. Hey kid, good work. There was one noticable spelling mistake, "done." It was probally supposed to be down. I like your story all the way through. At times it got rough and sometimes things didnt make sense and were like jumbled together. Great work though.

  13. In the second paragraph in the fourth sentence "lose" instead of "lost", in the third paragraph in the first sentence you should put "it" in front of the "was", and in the fourth paragraph in the last sentence you should write "shoot" not "shot" and and in front of "won" you should put "we".

  14. In the second paragraph you said 5 games in the row instead of in a row.

    In the second paragraph you said you lose the 2 games instead of lost the 2 games.

    In the second paragraph you spelled playoffs as two words.

  15. I liked this topic and I think it was totally long enough, and I know how you feel about it I was the youngest yet one of the best on my baseball team but they wouldn't let me play shortstop.
