Well, hey there, y’all! Let’s gab a bit about this… uh… Mid Valley somethin’ somethin’ sports, right? I ain’t no fancy sports writer, mind you, just a regular old gal tryin’ to make sense of all this runnin’ and jumpin’ and ball-throwin’ these young’uns do.
So, I hear tell this “week” thingy means them high school kids start doin’ their basketball and soccer stuff. That’s right, basketball and soccer. Now, back in my day, we just played hopscotch and maybe some tag, but these kids, they got all organized and whatnot. Good for ’em, I guess. Keeps ’em outta trouble, mostly.
Seems like there’s this team, Mid Valley somethin’ or other, and they done won eight games but lost three. Not too shabby, I reckon. They’re gonna play this Scranton Prep team, and them Scranton folks, they’re real good, won ten games and only lost one. Sounds like a tough match-up, like when you try to get that stubborn mule to plow the field after a long day! They’re gonna be playin’ at some place called Dunmore Veterans Memorial Stadium. Sounds fancy. Probably got them newfangled lights and everything.
Oh, and get this, these two teams, Mid Valley and Scranton, they already played each other once, back in week eight, I think. And them Scranton Cavaliers, that’s what they call ’em, they won that one. So, this is like a rematch, a second go-around. Like when you try to bake that cake again ’cause the first time it came out all flat and sad-lookin’. You hope it turns out better the second time, right? That Mid Valley team, they probably hopin’ for a better outcome this time around, too.
- Basketball
- Soccer
Now, this other thing I heard, somethin’ ’bout Reedley. Sounds like a place, maybe? Anyways, they had a season with “highs and lows,” whatever that means. Sounds like life, I tell ya. One minute you’re up, the next you’re down. Like when you’re tryin’ to can peaches and half the jars don’t seal right. Makes you wanna just throw your apron on the floor and stomp your feet! But you gotta keep on keepin’ on, just like them Reedley folks, I guess.
I ain’t sure what all this means for the “sports” and such, but it sounds like there’s gonna be some excitin’ games comin’ up. You got your Mid Valley team tryin’ to beat them Scranton fellas, and you got all sorts of basketball and soccer happenin’. Makes me tired just thinkin’ ’bout it! I’d rather be sittin’ on the porch with a glass of sweet tea, watchin’ the fireflies.
But good luck to all them kids, runnin’ and jumpin’ and whatnot. Hope they have fun and don’t get hurt too bad. And maybe, just maybe, that Mid Valley team can pull off a win this time. Wouldn’t that be somethin’? Like findin’ a twenty-dollar bill in your old coat pocket. A nice surprise. Yep, that’s what it’d be like, a real nice surprise.
So that’s the scoop, as best as I can tell ya. Mid Valley sports, basketball, soccer, rematches, highs and lows… it’s all a bit much for this old gal, but I tried my best to make sense of it. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I gotta go check on them biscuits I got in the oven. Don’t want them burnin’ up like them hopes of that Mid Valley team if they don’t play their cards right!
