I’m gonna be using a speech to text for this blog entry has kind of introduced it this week for our reflection piece and what I’m finding is that it’s actually a lot easier to be able to just speak my ideas and having to just write them out especially in a inquiry part because I feel like when I type stuff out I filter everything that I’m trying to say whereas when I’m speaking it kind of comes out more naturally and I’m able to kind of say everything that kind of comes to mind not just what I think is most important

Basketball: This was an awesome week for basketball usually going into all the other weeks we’ve usually had some downs kind of the week before either that people maybe weren’t cooperating or talking or communicating rather basically just not meshing well on the court this week was potentially one of our best games yet this year we had a few absences one person was out for an anniversary the other person messed up their knee the other person was away I think on co-op so we were down a couple of people I think going into the game we actually only had four thankfully someone our 5th person showed up from their lab about five minutes late but you know we’ll take it this was a neck and neck game back and forth we were within one point within six points really the entire duration and being the captain I had to be able to find a way to motivate this team I had to find a way to promote and encourage and just get a good behavior going and leading by example I my other big man was out again for the co-op I played I think thirty-six thirty-seven minutes out of the 40 I was exhausted I was sprinting up and down the court I was matched up against the 300 pound unit on the other team that being said this game turned out to come down to the like the La Last shot we were down one point with 20 seconds left we got a play going our point guard cut to the corner drew the defender from the top of the key passed the tour or little guy this man has not hit a shot the entire semester but in that moments I could see it he knew he was ready check that ball shot it from the top of the top of the key all Nets we were so ecstatic and got to be honest I was not expecting anything out of him because again he had not hit a single shot all semester but it all came down to this one shot and he made it work all of us were so hyped in being able to get this man feeling good and getting the rest of us hyped up for this win it was a big moment

Volleyball: For volleyball it was an interesting week the last couple of entries I believe that I have been mentioning how a guy on the on our team has been causing some issues particularly when it comes down to him saying that he would rather play all the time and us lose than him having to sub and us win turns out after last week he actually decided just to drop himself from the team entirely which is what I told the captain she should do he said he would do it and I told her just let him follow through with what he said we had two games come Thursday our first game was it wasn’t a nail biter we lost the first set by a couple of points brought it back to size still be in the 2nd and ended up winning in overtime despite going about 10 minutes over our given time frame to actually do this this overtime because our two other sets just took forever to do as it was such neck and neck was such long rallies I’m so confused when it comes to rotations particularly like on the 5 1 rotation being a power sometimes I just don’t know where I’m supposed to be my teammates all they all seem to know where I should be and they tell me I wish I’m incredibly thankful for but you know I’m still learning i’m still trying to not mess up as much but no I got some my goal this week was to jump more for the longest time I just never jumped because I never could quite get the timing down we jumped and boy did we make it work surprisingly as well I did not miss a single serve this week which was crucial for my team being able to to succeed for the second game was more or less the same I think we just took that momentum and just dominated dominic’s a strong word we won by About 10 or 7 points again I think we were just feeling ourselves from you know getting rid of the drama and from a personal point of view I think I’m at my goals I think I jumped more I think I am slowly starting to figure out the rotations and I’m happy to hear it and I’m happy to see it work out
