After the Game

It was their first game, Calhoun 8th-grade volleyball team was taking on Rodriguez middle school. After C teams game one of the girls went out of the gym to grab some food. While Sam was out there a gang of eight Rodriguez football thugs approached her and started trash-talking her schools teams. One of the kids with blonde tips and a gold chain said, “Yall finna take a hard L in football this year”.  She replied with “that's funny because last year we whooped yall, so what's stopping us from doing it again?”. That's when everybody started flaming on each other. Once the boys left, she turned around to find Coach Rictor dead eyeing her. Her face was blushing red. Coach Rictor gestured her to come over. Sam walked over as if nothing was happening and asked her what's up. That's when coach Rictor said, “I was just informed by this school principal that you were starting crap with some of their boys.” Sam started to explain what had happened. All of a sudden,  Coach cut her off and told her how tomorrow she would be running laps for the disrespectful behavior towards their school. Silently, Sam nodded her head and left thinking about how unfair the whole situation turned out to be. That next morning Sam was caught running a sixty in the gym for what hapend.
