On a yearly basis, funded by Mr. Alden, a Field Day was held in the town of Silver City. Every year the boys were in training for the races. And not only adults but boys and girls trained hard for Field Day.

There were prizes for all kinds of races — running and swimming and jumping. But the best one was a foot race, called a free-for-all, because anyone could run in it. Mr. Alden gave a prize of twenty-five dollars and medals to the winners. Sometimes a boy won the championship. Sometimes a girl. Once a fat man had won it.

On Field Day, Mike was cutting the grass for Mr. Moore in the neighborhood to earn his living expenses. Suddenly Mr. Moore stopped his car in the street and called to Mike. “Hop in,” he said. “Today is Field Day, and I want you to see the races.” Soon Mike found himself sitting on the bleachers (露天看台). By and by, a small boy climbed up the bleachers and sat beside him.

Then a man called, “Free-for-all! Come and get ready!”

Being a newcomer, Mike didn’t know what a free-for-all was. The boy next to him explained to him and pointed at the winner of last year’s race. Obviously, he was smaller than Mike, but he was older. Suddenly, Mike stood up and quietly left the bleachers. He went to the room where the boys were getting ready for the race.

“Do you want to run in the race?” a man asked him.

“Yes, I do,” replied Mike.

The man gave him some track clothes with the number 4 on the front and back.

“Where did you train?” he asked.

“I never was trained,” said Mike.

“These boys have been training all year,” remarked the man.

“Oh, I don’t think I’ll win,” responded Mike. “But I am keen to run. It’s my passion and it’s lots of fun.”

Jasmine Jones is a small, quiet, brainy fifth-grader at Frederick Douglass Elementary School. Most classmates think she’s smart and cool. But an athlete? Nobody saw that coming.

Jasmine has always been the shortest among her friends, but her height never seemed a problem till she wanted to try out for the girls’ basketball team. She knew that being short was a disadvantage, but Jasmine enjoyed a challenge.

She also had a secret weapon. Her tough-but-sweet aunt Kinika, had been a pretty good college basketball player.

“Hey, auntie,” Jasmine texted Kinika one September afternoon, “any chance you can help me become a better b-ball player?”

“Yes! How about Skyland Park tomorrow at 4?” Kinika texted back.

The next afternoon, Kinika worked with Jasmine on the fundamentals — dribbling (运球), bringing the ball down court, playing defense. She also laid down some advice, “Practice is important. The harder you work, the more you will have to show for it.” Kinika said, “But the biggest thing about basketball, Jas, is to play together. It’s a team sport.”

Jasmine listened. After school, three times per week, Kinika met her at the park for practice.

In late September, the Douglass Dragons’ basketball teams conducted tryouts. During the tryout, she focused on the court, hit a few three-point shots, and impressed Coach Simone with her willingness to pass the ball. When the Dragon Girls team list was posted the next day, Jasmine’s name was on it, along with Maria, Whitney, Rachel Soon came the regular season.

The Dragon Girls lost their first three games by lopsided (悬殊的) scores, leading Jasmine to ask her aunt for some extra help. The day after the third game, Kinika stopped by to watch the team practice. With Coach Simone’s permission, Kinika worked with the players in an hour-long session, helping Maria improve her outside shots, encouraging Rachel to pass more, and showing Whitney a better way to set up before free throws. As for Jasmine, her real value was her speed, so Kinika focused on teaching her how to get to the basket quickly.

“Your aunt is the best!” The girls told Jasmine afterwards. Jasmine felt she really belonged on the team.
