Student Success Statement

Jenna Huff wins the extreme “Sportsmanship” award from the U.S. Olympic Committee.

In this story Jenna Huff is a high school student that runs in her cross country team and she was able to run for her team in the race to the state champion. As Jenna was running she said that she always kept an eye out for her opponent Deb. Jenna was always just a little behind Deb, there was on three miles and when it was the last mile Jenna was thinking of just sprinting the last mile so she could lead her team to the state nationals. When Jenna was running she was looking at her opponent deb and saw her fall in front of her in the last 100 yards and when she did Jenna was right there to help her get up from her fall. When she did Jenna walked Deb to the finish line and let her finish first because Jenna said that Deb was always going to be in front of her even without the hip fall.

Reflection: what Jenna did there was a really good act of "Good Sportsmanship". Jenna new that if she did not help Deb get up from the floor she would just be one sour looser and she would not feel god with herself. Jenna chose the Right
