Then I remember having a great nap that afternoon, one of my best naps of the year. And I specifically remember Coach Arico coming over to me in pregame, looking me in the eye, and saying, “Score the ball today.”
I had six points in the previous game. She wasn’t having that.
“Score the ball, Naz!”
When things got going, I don’t even remember getting specific buckets. Throughout the whole game, I was mainly just concerned with us as a team cutting into Ohio State’s lead. The one thing I actually do specifically remember from that game happened during one dead ball, when I had this intense feeling come over me like….
Wait, hold up … did you do your French homework?
Don’t ask me why, but that’s what popped into my head. Like, really? French homework? Now?
Sacre bleu!
Then it was like: Yes, of course you did it! But … wait … you’re in the middle of a basketball game here … FOCUS. |
