Abigail Nelson is a sophomore and a member of the girls basketball team.

Nelson has been playing basketball for five years. Basketball includes effort, focus and practice. Practicing basketball can be done individually. Basketball can be an enjoyable sport, but it also can be fast-paced. This sport is very fast and quick which makes the sport more exciting.

“I enjoy basketball because it gives me something to look forward to and it is very intense.”

In basketball, all players have goals or areas that they would personally like to improve. Setting goals and improving makes the players get better in what they do. Some players have successfully reached their goals , which they put in action out there on the court to defeat their opponents.

Nelson said, “My goal for the basketball season is to be able to post and shoot the ball up after rebounding it.”

Basketball includes much effort from the players and also the coaches. Coaches play a very important role in any sport. Being able to coach is very important and an exciting job. The players look up to them and the coaches can impact the player’s life in positive ways.

“My favorite coaches are Chris and Ashley because they both are so helpful and supportive to me.”
