January 19th, 2013



I was in varsity coach Morgan's office after a tough physical practice with my JV squad. Even though I hit the game winner against North Sevier and won us the game, coach Fred was still merely upset of how poorly we performed as a team and how we risked loosing yet another game . . . But afterwards, Anthony and I were sent over to coach Morgan's office after practice. He told me to come in first while Anthony stood in the hallways.



"What's up coach? Morgan?" I ask as I took a seat in the chair in front of the desk.



"Yes, Jannis, I've been lurking around at a little of the JV film and you're really a player I see that stands out. You were putting up points in a hurry against Layton and I really liked your confidence in your demeanor when you took those two three pointers in the game against last Friday, despite you having such a rough start. You really came up big when the team really needed you."



"Thanks, I just want to help my team win. I saw the opportunity to fire so I did, luckily I knocked them both down."



"And I really like that in a player," he says while nodding. "I brought you in here because I'd like you to be apart of our varsity team. if you'd like, you may attend and work out with the guys on varsity. I figure you'll be a pure varsity athlete by next year so I see no reason that you shouldn't be out there developing team chemistry with them as well. And also, if you accept you'll participate in both the JV schedule as well as our varsity. We're sitting at the 5-1 record after loosing last game and we could use some extra depth at guard on those road games when our starters don't play up to expectations. What do you say?"



I flashed a huge grin right when he mentioned my name and varsity in the same sentence, "Yes coach," I say while trying to keep my voice steady. "I can't at all deny that opportunity, man. It's been my goal to crack varsity, now I'm going to be on it as a freshmen? Sounds great Coach."



"Well great. I know you're playing point guard on the JV team but we'll need you to add perimeter shooting to the team so I'll most likely be using you as a two guard. You'll practice with us every other day and the others you'll be with JV. Good luck, Jannis."



"Thanks." I reached out to shake his hand and with that I left the office and let Anthony know it was good news . . . Things seemed to be getting better everyday around here, I just hoped it stuck that way because everyone knows things can go south pretty quickly.
