Try Outs: Day 2

Well, today was the second day of middle school try outs for the basketball team, as the title might suggest. We covered more timed drills today, and I succeeded overall, I personally believe. Our first drill was the 'timed layups' drill. You have to attempt to make as many layups as possible in 30 seconds, with right and left hands. I'm somewhat coordinated with both hands, so I managed to sink 7 layups with each hand, which tied for first on the team. Then came the 'jump shot' drill, which is nearly the same thing as the layups, except you're shooting and making as many jump shots as possible in 45 seconds. I only made 4, but I was robbed of another make on the last shot beacuse of the "bouncy" rim. I'll make a long story short and say what we did in order: Stretch, skills, shots, drills, conditioning and running, leave the building. End of story. Tomorrow is the final day.
