HOME GAME NO SHAME

Nothing but double for Jack Derby on senior night

“CRACK!” the ball flew off the bat to the outfield. The outfielder sprinted to the ball but missed the catch. A double! Jack sprinted around the bases proud of his success, everyone is screaming and cheering for him. “I got a double in the 4th inning.” His last game on his home field was worth the while with his mom and sister watching. He got to start the game off as a starting designated hitter. However senior night has a big impact on the whole team and everyone watching, knowing they are all leaving soon. Jack Derby says, “It was cool to have the vibe and energy there. Knowing all my friends and family are there to support me.” He still has more games to play and more balls to hit, but for him knowing that it is coming to an end leaves him feeling sad. Senior night will have a spot in his memory with all the boys on the teams and the boys he is graduating with. Hoping he will have another game on Rocklin’s field to maybe make an even better memory. This team has his whole heart and it continues to grow.
