Diary Of A Baller: Anthony "Champ" Mosely (Delaware) Entry #12


What’s up basketball world it’s your boy Champ coming to you with highlights of my week. First I would like to wish everyone a Happy New Year and hope that 2010 will be a good one. This week was fun, after being out of school for a while it was good to get back. The week started off with practice on Monday, practice was fun because it was our first one since the break and got to see the fella’s. I had really missed practice, oh well I guess I like to practice.

Thursday we had a big game against our archrival Postlewait Middle. We were fired up and ready to play. Last year just like this one we came in to the game undefeated, last year they knocked us off. This year we were determined not to let that happen. With our 4-0 record on the line we came out blazin and jumped right on them. In the first quarter I scored 15 pts and at the final buzzer we were 5-0 with a 52-34 victory. I finished the game with 25.

Friday school was cancelled because of snow, and I must admit I was happy. The day off gave me some additional time to work on an important book report and it let me spread my workout over the entire day. Saturday we had practice and it was fun because Coach put in a new play that allows me to be creative with the dribble to shake my defender and get to the cup.

Monday we played another conference opponent the Woodbridge Raiders and we knew they were out for revenge as last season they came to us with a 8-0 record and left the gym 8-1. This year we are 5-0 and they want to get some payback. But that didn’t happen as we cruised past the Raiders. The game started out intense but we were clicking on all cylinders. The big man (Shikeem) was rebounding and scoring and my backcourt mate (Lewis) and I were putting the ball in the basket and playing solid defense. The final score was 64-28 and we are now 6-0 with a 20pt margin of victory. I finished the game with 17.

That’s my week you all, stay tuned next to find out my highlights of this week.


Champ Out !!!
