The Hitting Zone

My fear of seeing a division one or two champion came true. To make it worse, it was a team we knew. University Prep.

Noah and I weren't the only ones to notice their entrance. Our whole team got a lot quieter as more of our teammates realized who else was here.

"I didn't know that they won their championship too." I whispered to Noah.

Noah shrugged. "Why would we care? We're in different divisions." He folded his arms across his chest. "Who cares anyways. We're champions too. They aren't better than us just because they're in a higher division. Just means their school is bigger."

Uh, the fact that they destroyed us a couple months ago says otherwise. I kept the comment to myself.

Our Coach went up to greet theirs. As they talked to one another, our team got closer together and started to gossip.

"This is crazy." Brian said in a low tone. "I can't believe they won their division."
