      *Coach Rice responds:*

      Brandon, since you already made Varsity and it is Christmas, I understand. You will be on Varsity.

      Have a safe trip!

        Christian: I'm getting sick and tired of this school. I have to come here on Christmas break. Wow. Luckily I love basketball or else I wouldn't do it.

          For Cole, one thing is in mind: Basketball never stops. "So what if it's Christmas and I have to try out? That's something you wouldn't really do, but what happens, happens."

                *At tryoyts*

                Coach Rice: Ok team. There are 10 spots open on varsity. I'm twlling you guys, this is big. People that go to this school get ranked. Guess what? I am getting very close on making a deal to play the #1 team in the country right now, the Polk High Knights. Just look(Pulls out his iPhone6)


                Belltown close to making a deal to play Polk High in 2015

                Written By: Trey Corley, MHSAA Beat Writer

                Yep. This no name school in Michigan might play the best high school team in the land. If the Varsity program can get 12 or more wins this year, they will finish the deal to play Polk. This will be a tough task for them, but we will see.


                Coach Rice: You see this? They are about to send another guy to the NBA in Troy Monroe, and they have a great sophomore in Michael Kane. So this is no joke. No joke.

                *Say if your guy is at tryouts or not*

                  *Still at Tryouts*

                  -Im going to assume everyone is at tryouts except for Brandon(TheNumber35)

                  Coach Rice: Today we will begin with lots of conditioning. My teams have always been able to run the floor, and you guys will be no different. I see there are a lot of you here, so this will help to show who really wants it.

                  (Points at Cole) Hey, you lead the stretches.

                  (They do 130 sit-ups, 60 push ups, and 4 minutes of 6 inches alond with 3 minutes of planks. Then they run 20 laps around the gym and then do 25 minutes of stairs.)

                  Coach: Alright guys, that is good. You guys can take a break, a random parent went out and got everyone some Subway and Gatorade.

                      All this running.......is a hassle Jerry thought. He wasn't tired in the slightest but it seemed to be a waste of time to him.

                      He reached into my pockets and pulled out a Kit-Kat. He wasn't thrilled bout being up at school on his break but if it was to play some ball he didn't mind in the slightest.
                      Yep Yep.......I'm just that good

                          *Tryouts, Part 2*

                          Coach: Alright guys, this is it. We are done with conditioning for now, and we are now to the actual tryouts. I know you guys have been waiting for this for a while, and here it is.

                          Drills:
                          Run Up and Down the court 20 times with the ball, switching hands each time

                          Dribbling around the school 5 times

                          10 games of lightning

                          A 2 vs. 2 tournament(Won by Cole and Jerry)

                          7 games of 2 ball

                          Last 15 minutes: Shootaround

                          Coach: Alright guys, for the scrimmage tomorrow, we will have an A and B team, with the A team having the best shot at making Varsity. If you aren't called, you will be on JV, who is coached by:
                          Spoiler
                          I understand you guys hated this coach, but she has learned to control her anger, just like I have.

                          Now, I am only taking 7 players on varsity, yes, only 7 guys, and one spot is taken. So, here is the A team:
                          Spoiler


                          Coach: Alright, so if your name isn't called, come tomorrow but meet with Coach Arambula. Remember, only 7 spots!
                          Discussment/Time of Day

                          After Tryouts, around 6:00 PM.

                              Stone: man this is bull****, I'm 6'1" I've worked on my ball handling, I can shoot the ball better than anyone, and it still seems like I'm not going to make varsity, no one gives me a chance, what do I have to do to get a chance?

                                Stone: man sending that text made me feel better, coach Rice does not seem as bad as that guy I saw on the videos, but I will not play for that bitch again
