This story is about a young sophomore named Jenna Huff that won the “Extreme “Sportsmanship” Award from the U.S. Olympic Committee. She helped another girl Deb finish the race even though she was going to pass her and go to state playoffs. She stopped and helped her cross the finish line one step in front of her to make sure that Deb would win.

I think that this is a great example of sportsmanship. This really is a touching story knowing that someone would give up a chance to win the race and win to help someone else who deserves it. She knew that she deserved to win, and she knew that she was badly hurt. She chose the right and knew what she had to do. I admire Jenna for doing what no one else would have done. She really did deserve that award.

Summary/Reflection

A group of girls were playing softball and Sarah the girl from Central Washington hit a home run. In an effort to go back to 1^st base because she didn’t touch it, she hurt her knee and couldn’t move. The two girls, Mallory and Liz from Western Oregon (the opposite team), went around all bases and helped her touch all of them and score her homerun. It was the last bat of her career.

I think that this is amazing. The two girls who volunteered to help her out have really good sportsmanship. Even though they were going to lose because of the homerun she did, they still helped her go across the diamonds. They did the right thing at the right time. They should be proud of themselves for doing what they did. They truly do have great character.
