My name is Brock Benoit , and I am a Staff Writer. I am a sophomore, and this is my first year in Journalism. In my free time I like to play basketball, and hang out with friends.
Basketball is most definitely my favorite sport. I've been playing basketball for about 3 years. I spend most of my time on a basketball court.
Moving 1,000 miles away.
I never in my life thought I would move out of Louisiana. In late 2020 my family decided it was time to start fresh after a massive hurricane hit my home town. I started at Pomona high school in September, 2020. It was very difficult at first, but when I started in person school , I met a lot of people and had friends. This is a very different environment, but I am doing my best to get used to it.
I am patiently waiting for Christmas to come. Christmas is only 58 days away , and I couldn't be more excited. For Christmas I am getting a dog, and hoping for a Blue Nose Pitbull. I am dreading the cold winter coming though, I am not a fan of the freezing cold.
I am going half with my mom to buy this dog. I recently got a job , and most of my money will be going into savings. This will help me not waste my money.
I will be going back to Louisiana in late November to see my family. I am not going to start our first basketball game of the season, because I am going to Louisiana. :(
Basketball season is finally here and I couldn't be more excited. Our first game was November 29th , and we beat Standley Lake in all three games. We are off for a month now, and our next game is January 4th against Westminster High.
Christmas break was very eventful, I finally got my dog. We went to Wyoming to get him, and he is very small. He is a month old. I also worked a lot during break, which is great. This was definitely the best Christmas I have had so far.
Basketball season is almost over :( . We only have three games left, and our final game is Feb. 18th against Valor. This season has been so much fun, and my teamates and coach for sure made this year the best. Now I am looking forward to summer when club ball starts.
