Volleyball try-outs

I just started my first year of Jr. High! I am so excited. I am trying out for the volleyball team! In my opinion, they work us way to hard when it comes to the running. We had to do suicide a couple of times! I hate Suicide! Then we had to do what is called a train.
It's where we get in groups of 7 and we line up on the short side of the gym. Then the first person in the line runs to the other side of the gym (we run the long ways) and tags the line that marks the out of bounds and runs back and the 2nd person (Which is me)would grab the back of their shirt and we would both run to the other side of the gym and tag the line and turn back. Then the next person would grab my shirt. And so on until everyone has at lest tag the line once. (If we let go of their shirt, we would have to start all over again!). Other than that, try-outs were fun! Tomorrow we will get a letter in our 8th hour classes to see if we made the team. I hope I make it!!!
