A Word From Austin Whitesell
December 2003

 

Hey, my name is Austin Whitesell.  I’m attending school at Southeast Middle School and I’m in the 8th grade.  Some of my favorite sports are basketball, lacrosse, and skateboarding, and I just started wrestling with my school team.  I have two dads, two moms, three brothers, two sisters, two nieces, and an upcoming niece or nephew.  Two years ago I first played basketball on the Nexus Athletics team. I really liked the team; we had great players and a great coach.  We ended up losing most of the regular season games, then winning the championship, which proves that things don’t always finish the way they start.

 

I played for the same team the following year and it was just as much fun.  This team was a lot different from all of the other teams that I have played for because it wasn’t all about winning, it was about “play to play”, and it was also a good religious team.  If someone is looking for a team to play on where you won’t sit on the bench for missing a shot, and everyone always has fun, this is the team to play for.  I thank my coaches for giving me an opportunity to play on this great team.
