I graduated from a small public school in Mi
chigan. One day, Mr. Ledy, our football coach, asked me to play football. I couldn't help__
1__: me, play football? I was six feet tall and was not much__
2__a hundred pounds in weight. I thought that they might just need__
3__fool to increase the number of the players.
However, he was persistent(坚持的) and__
4__I joined the football team. That__
5__to be one of my best decisions as a kid.
Our worst game__
6__was the one against Crystal Falls. They beat us 56 to 6. Yeah! That was a football not a basketball__
7__. We played them again when we were seniors. They__
8__us again but the score
was much more__
9__, 30 to 20.
Coach Ledy would not let that __
10__again. He encouraged us to beat them, to pay them back. And
we did so in the last game we played before__
11__. I had scored 6 points alone in the game. Coach Ledy praised me. It was a huge__
12__for me.
Was I a football hero? Ha! Ha! No, I couldn't__
13__it without our team. The thing I learned through
football was__
14__. We won as a team and we__
15__as a team.
I think Mr. Ledy would be__
16__of me if he knew that I had broken the athletic__
17__at the University of Michigan. I'm__
18__to him as I would not have today’s honor without him. I'll __
19__life's final war with pain to win the victory; I'll seek the lights of glory wholeheartedly and I'll__
20__working hard so as not to
let him down.
