Sample Text
• The stick and the feeling you had were destined.
• You were made an all-star if you could make the trip. The ability to make the trip was the only necessary qualification.
• Out of view from the other team —this was our secret — we’d apply the goop liberally to our cleats. It was amazing!
• The red-haired boy grabbed an empty cream soda can and walked toward the goal. He pulled a frazzled piece of string hanging from the top bar, attached it to the can
and then retied it to the corner where two pipes met at more or less a ninety-degree angle.
It was an old cage. Players had been shooting at it for years.
He then scooped five India rubber balls out of the crease and rolled them twenty to twenty-five yards in front of the goal. The four other teammates picked themselves and their sticks up and walked out to the scattered balls. Red broke toward Blondey and shouted, “I’m open! Hit me!”
Blondey scooped up a ball and fired a hard pass to Red: stick-side, on the money. Red curled toward the goal and sidearmed a bullet. Clang! The pop can jumped!
