Football Game`

Today we had our final Junior Varsity football game against Redemptorist. It was supposed to be a fairly physical game, but we dominated on offence and defense. the final score was 32-0. We only had fifteen people dress-out and one of us was injured in the game. They had more JV players out than they had on their varsity squad.
In the game, David Tatman scored two touchdowns. The other two were scored by Sam Rotenburg and Noah Ponjuan. Sam also intercepted two passes. I had one big hit and almost tackled the quarterback when he was trying to throw the ball. When I did this I caused the quarterback to make a bad pass, which let Clark Nichols intercept it.

Reading Response

I read The Sniper, Sucker, and An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge. I will most likely do my literary analysis about An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge because it is far more complex than the other two. This story talks about the author's idea of the moments just before death. He shows how everything was in much better detail.
The Sniper and Sucker are much simpler stories. The Sniper is about a man in Ireland during a civil war. Sucker is about a boy's 'bother' whose parents died young. The Sniper has a fairly vague theme, while Sucker is  just about the bonding that occurs between the narrator and Sucker.
