One Victory, 5 Seconds-Concrete Language

There I was, standing 30 feet away from victory.

I glanced at the score board- 24 to 23. This was it.

Thousands of eyes stared me down- watching my every move.

No mistakes now…I thought as I drew my trembling arm back.

I toss the ball slightly to the right lining it up perfectly with my right arm. I hit the ball.

The sound of silence filled the air.

The ball barely grazed over the top of the net-a stream of panic surged through my body.

Time stood still.

The ball slowly rolled over the net… onto the other side.

It hits the ground. ACE!!!!! The sound of the crowd vibrated through my head.

A smile spread from cheek to cheek.

We had done it! We had won!
