The Academic Bowl this year was fun. For the athletic competition, I was participating in volleyball. It was my first time playing volleyball as a team. I learned a lot of skills in volleyball, like hitting, spiking, and setting. Sometimes I wasn’ t doing well but I would try my best to do well. I put all of my effort in to that. When I come back next year, I am also going to do volleyball again because I enjoyed it. While we were playing, I knew that we were going to do very well, we were prepared for it. But towards the end, we didn’ t do too well, but we sure did try hard. The other teams were really good, but the thing that counts is that we had least tried and did our best. Next year, what I’ m going to do better is to try way harder and pay attention and ask a lot of questions to the coach.- Martha Pecina
In the ABC athletics, I am in the volleyball team for state. I have so much fun playing and learning how to truly play volleyball. I always had a special interest for the sport but I never really gave myself a chance to professionally play this sport. Although the whole team still needs to improve on many things, I believe we have some talent and we can accomplish many things when we all work hard, work together, and have fun.- Daisy Marquez
