Q: “How long have you been playing basketball for?”
A: “Since I was in 2nd grade, so about 9 years now.”

Q: “What position do you play?”
A: “I play point guard and shooting guard too, but mostly point guard.”

Q: “Do you play any other sports other than basketball?”
A: “No, just basketball, because basketball takes up a lot of my time. For 3 seasons we do just basketball, and I love it, so I put all my time into it.”

Q: “Did you play basketball in middle school?”
A: “I did. I played at Warrenton Middle School before it changed to Taylor Middle School.”

Q: “Are you going to play in college?”
A: “At the moment, I don’t really plan on it because I’d rather go to a big school and have a big school experience, and, to be honest, I’m not good enough to play at a big school.”

Q: “How much do you practice?”
A: “We practice for about 3 hours a day after school. And on the weekends, I try to practice by stretching and taking a jog.”

Q: “What else do you do other than basketball?”
A: “Other than basketball I do a lot of catching up on my homework and getting ahead.”

Q: “If you didn’t make the team, what sport would you play instead?”
A: “If I didn’t make the team I would probably try wrestling, because I’ve never had the time because of basketball.”

Q: “Do you think the basketball team is going to perform well this year?”
A: “I do think so. We’ve got some new big people that transferred in, and we’ve been going hard all summer.”
