PATRIOTS IN DESPAIR- Eddie Alaimo
January 14th 2009, Lewis vs. Bryant, come one, come all. Last night the Lewis patriots squared off with Bryant high schools weasels in a very intense wrestling match. Coming into this match as the underdog with the record of 2 – 4 opposed to Bryant’s nearly flawless 5 – 1 the patriots are ready for the upset of the year. Mr.Rosenbaum, the varsity coach says, “We are going to win today. Our guys are really training hard and have a hell of a lot of heart. This is our day”
Going into last night match Lewis` George Perricon exhibited great moves, strong stances, and incredible exertion and concentration when he went toe to toe with one of Queens’s top wrestlers Bryant Alberto and came out victorious. Battling for 13 rounds was Lewis’ own Jeff Patcholy up against John Weston resulting in a pin for Lewis.
Last night’s match was heated and going great until Lance Alabaster, Lewis wrestler, tore his left knee ligament in an attempt to pin, the very determined weasel Joey Qui. Paramedics rushed to franny lew in efforts to get Lance to the hospital as he was in severe pain. I had a chance to speak to the very worried head coach Mr. Rivera where he said, “ We’re all behind Lance, and wish him a speedy recovery. He made the supreme sacrifice today for the team” Doctors are very concerned about Lances condition saying “ The medial collateral ligament (or MCL) is one of four ligaments that acts to stabilize the knee joint. The medial collateral ligament may be injured in isolation, or in combination with the meniscus and other ligaments within the knee joint bro” – Dr. Mike (the situation). Unfortunately even with this best doctors ( Pauly D and the situation ) Lance will not be able to wrestle until the middle of next season, but he will be there to support on the sideline he says.
Good Day ends Bad.
It is pretty obvious that Lance Alabaster, and the Francis Lewis wresting team, as well as its staff and coaches would agree with that statement. Their Yesterday’s game against Bryant was a pure show of determination and courage. They had to battle against a way better ranked rival, Bryant H.S, which is 5-1 while Lewis is 2-4. Before the game you could hear the boys hyping themselves up for the match in their locker-room by screaming “Pa-tri-ots! Pa-tri-ots!”. In addition before the encounter, the Assistant Principal of the P.E. at Lewis, Arnie Rosenbaum stated “We are going to win today. Our guys are really training hard and have a hell of a lot of hear. This is our day”. Lewis stand out junior, Frank Rizzo has proofed Mr.Rosenbaum correct as to the team’s spirit being very determined today by expressing his team’s feelings about the game, he stated “Lewis looks great. When Bryant walked in, they looked a little scared…we obviously have something to prove here. We’re the underdogs and are going to really fight hard. It’s going to be a great match”.
And so they did, they fought hard yesterday, proved themselves, and after a great and exiting game they have emerged victorious. The match lasted thirteen rounds with the final score 48 to 39 for the Patriots. The most catching-the-eye pits were those between Jeff Patcholy, Lewis and Bryant’s John Weston, as well as the pit between George Perricon of Lewis and Alberto Francois of Bryant. The gym in the fresh meadow Francis Lewis high school campus was filled with numerous supporters, parents and school staff. The atmosphere was great.
It would have been a perfect day for the Patriots, however towards the end of the match one the team’s most dedicated wrestlers, Lance Alabaster, has unfortunately tore his left knee ligament causing him to scream out dolorously. The ambulance with Paramedics have arrived on the scene immiediatly. The gym was suddenly was filled out with freightening silence as Alabaster was transported out on a stretcher. Later on Dr. Lisak explained to us closely what was Lance’s injury is, he said “The medical collateral ligament (MCL) is one of four ligaments that acts to stabilize the knee joint. MLC may be injured by isolation, or combination with the meniscus and other ligaments within the knee joint”. Also Lisak has shared with us some of the statistics about the injuries in high school sports. He told us that high school atheletes account for the estimated 2 million of the injuries, 500,000 doctor visits, and 30,000 hospitalizations annually. The rate of an inurty between high school athelets is 2.4 per a 1000. The most common injury are sprains and strains, over 50 percent, right after come contusions, fractures and concussions, as well as different ones which are harder to categorize.
The whole team, as well as the coach Herrera feel sad for Lance. Herrera expressed his feelings “We’re all behind Lance, and wish him a speedy recovery. He made the supreme sacrifice today for the team”. The redaction would like to wish Lance a quick comeback to health as well.

PATRIOTS BACK IN THE GAME
“Pa- tri- ots! Pa- tri- ots!” this is what you would hear from the Lewis locker room. Before every match the Francis Lewis wrestling team, the Patriots, in their locker room would chant their name to get psyched up. On January 14, 2010 the Lewis Patriots versed the Bryant Weasels at 5:30 PM. Lewis was 2 and 4 while Bryant was 5and 1. It ended with Lewis 48 and Bryant 39; bring Lewis up to 6th place and Bryant down to 3rd place.
The Lewis gym was packed with the players’ parents; other students, the principle, Mr. Shama, and the Lewis couch Mr. Herrera.
Mr. Shama had this to say, “ I’m psyched for today’s match. I’m really looking forward to it. I think our guys look really strong today. Bryant has got some really tough competitors, but I think today is all about the Patriots!”
During the match Lewis’ George Perricon was pitted against Bryant’s Alberto Francois after a series of great moves, strong stances and incredible exertion and concentration from both sides Perricon came out victorious.
Later on in the match was Lewis’ Jeff Patcholy weaseled Bryant’s John Weston. This match was one to remember because the match went on for 13 rounds, resulting in the pin in the 13th round.
Toward the end of the match, the most exciting part happened. While pinning his opponent, Joey Qui, Lewis wrestler, Lance Alabaster, tore his left knee ligament causing him to scream in pain. The paramedics arrived on the scene within minutes.
Couch Herrera had this to comment, “ We’re all behind Lance, and wish him a speedy recovery. He made the supreme sacrifice today for them.”
A specialist, Dr. Liask said this on the topic, “ The medical collateral (or MCL) is one of four ligaments that act to stabilize the knee joint. The medical collateral ligament may be injured in isolation, or in combonation with the meniscus and other ligaments within the knee joint, the average of these injuries has gone up in the last 34 years.”

Star player gets injured during wrestling match
Ouch!!!! Said Lance Alabaster as he he tore his left knee ligament causing him to scream in pain. On January 14th 2010 there was a wrestling match Lewis V.S Bryant High School. Bryant High School is one has one of the top wrestling teams in the city. A lot of students , staffs ,and even the principle showed up to this game with lots of confidence. Mr.Shama the principle of Francis Lewis High school said “ I’m psyched for today’s match. I’m really looking forward to it. I think our guys look really strong today. Bryant has got some really tough competitors, but I think today is all about the patriots”. Mr.rosenbaum a staff at francis lewis High school said “we are going to win today. Our guys are really raining hard and have avhell of a lot of heart. This is our day” But the students seem to think differently. A couple of students from francis lewis didn’t really have faith in the francis lewis patriots. One kid said” Our wrestling team sucks im only here to get extra credit for my sports management class” and another student said ‘ I love the game of wrestling but francis lewis needs lots of improvement” one student actually had something good to say junior Frank rizzo said “ Lewis Looks Great. When Bryant Walked n, They looked a little scared.. We obviously have something to rove here. We’re the underdogs and are going to really fight hard. It’s going to be a great Match”
Lewis’ George perricon was pited against Bryant Alberto Francois. Lewis has a start and wins the first 5rounds of 13, resulting in a pin in the 13thround. This wasn’t just a regular pin . While pinning opponent, Joey Qui, Lewis wrestler Lance Alabaster, tore his Left knee ligament. Before u can blink an eye the paramedics were at the scene. DR.Lisak said “ The Medial collateral ligament also known as the McL is one of four ligaments that acts to stabilize the knee joint. The Medial Collateral ligament may be injured in isoltion, or in combination with the meniscus and other ligaments within the knew joint”.
Participation in High school sports helps promote a physically active lifestyle but it also leads to a lot of injuries. High school athletes account for an estimated 2million injuries, 500,000 doctor visits, and 30,000 hospitalizations annually. From the research by Dr.lisman it shows that more athletes get injured in practice more then they do in season games.
After everything was cooled I got to interview lance,his teammates, and the coach. Lance was asked how does he feel about getting injured at the end of the game? He said “ tearing your ligament isnt a good feeling but since it made us win I feel like im getting better already” his teammates said that they know lance is very tough and that he will be recovering very soon. Coach Herrera said “ we’re all behind lance, and wish him a speedy recovery. He made the supreme sacrafice today for the team” The game ended in a 48-39 win for lewis , the audience shouted with glory some looked surprised but most were excited for the victory.

Dynamite Game Takes Place At Lewis
Francis Lewis HS defeated one of the greatest teams in the city, Bryant HS, in a match nobody will ever forget. The wrestling match which took place on January 14, 2010 at 5:10PM featured Lewis HS (2 and 4) and Bryant HS (5 for 1) entering the match. The Patriots had home-field advantage at Lewis and looked to salvage a win against Bryant HS after starting the season like a disaster. With the win by the Patriots, they currently hold a record of 3 and 4 and moved into 6th place in the standings. However, unfortunately for Bryant HS, they fell down the standings into 3rd place with a current record of 5 and 2.
As the game was about to start at Lewis, the gym was full of enthusiastic, exciting, impatient fans, coaches, parents, students, etc. Before the game had even started, the gym was shaking and rumbling, which pretty much summed up the magnitude of the game.
Mr. Shama, the principal of Lewis, was quoted “I’m psyched for today’s match. I’m really looking forward to it. I think our guys look really strong today. Bryant has got some really tough competitors, but I think today is all about the Patriots!” Mr. Rosenbaum, the coach of the Patriots, was very confident as quote, “We are going to win today. Our guys are really training hard and have a hell of a lot of heart. This is our day.”
Junior Frank Rizzo a huge wrestling fan was quoted “Lewis looks great. When Bryant walked in, they looked a little scared… We obviously have something to probe here. We’re the underdogs and are going to really fight hard. It’s going to be a great match”
Luke Foster, George Periccon (Lewis) teammate, was hyped up in the locked as quoted "We're going to win this game no matter how it takes. Go Lewis!"
Highlights of the Game: The two best players respectively from each team, George Perricon (Lewis) and Alberto Francois (Bryant) went heads up against one another in an incredible match. They were quoted by a scout “They have great moves, strong stances, incredible exertion, and concentration.” The match ended up going into the 13 round resulting in a pin. The game also featured two rival mates named Jeff Patcholy (Lewis) and John Weston (Bryant) who both violently wrestled till the end as their look on their eyes explained how much they cared about winning and showed the concentration and grit. An ugly event occurred toward the end of the match as Joey Qui was forced to get transported to the hospital by the paramedics after tearing his left knee ligament. Joey had been pinned down by Lance Alabaster (Lewis) and he was seen screaming in pain.
Whoever was in attendance will tell you the match was probably the strangest they’ve ever seen.

Mr. Shama, the principal of Lewis, was quoted “I’m psyched for today’s match. I’m really looking forward to it. I think our guys look really strong today. Bryant has got some really tough competitors, but I think today is all about the Patriots!” Mr. Rosenbaum, the coach of the Patriots, was very confident as quote, “We are going to win today. Our guys are really training hard and have a hell of a lot of heart. This is our day.”
Junior Frank Rizzo a huge wrestling fan was quoted “Lewis looks great. When Bryant walked in, they looked a little scared… We obviously have something to probe here. We’re the underdogs and are going to really fight hard. It’s going to be a great match”
Luke Foster, George Periccon (Lewis) teammate, was hyped up in the locked as quoted "We're going to win this game no matter how it takes. Go Lewis!"
Highlights of the Game: The two best players respectively from each team, George Perricon (Lewis) and Alberto Francois (Bryant) went heads up against one another in an incredible match. They were quoted by a scout “They have great moves, strong stances, incredible exertion, and concentration.” The match ended up going into the 13 round resulting in a pin. The game also featured two rival mates named Jeff Patcholy (Lewis) and John Weston (Bryant) who both violently wrestled till the end as their look on their eyes explained how much they cared about winning and showed the concentration and grit. An ugly event occurred toward the end of the match as Joey Qui was forced to get transported to the hospital by the paramedics after tearing his left knee ligament. Joey had been pinned down by Lance Alabaster (Lewis) and he was seen screaming in pain.
Whoever was in attendance will tell you the match was probably the strangest they’ve ever seen.

5.) Group Work: Okay, so I want us to work in groups of two to more fully develop our ideas for a TV show.
This is the situation: Melanie Gloss, a famous Hollywood television producer, is coming to visit local schools across America. Her goal is to talk to teenagers about their experiences, and enlist their help in creating a new television series. You will have five minutes to make a pitch to Ms. Gloss and describe your ideas for a new television series. You must describe characters, setting, and a sample plot. Be sure to think about what makes a television show popular and why teenagers like you connect to specific characters in the shows you enjoy.

(2 min.)
6.) Now I want you to click on the link and on a new Word doc, work behind one computer to fully develop your show idea
Draw the picture in your note books
You will have 15 to 20 minutes to fully develop your group’s show idea.

7.) Summary: Now I want you get ready to pitch your show, every group will only have a 3 to 5 minute period to pitch the show to the producer. Put the finishing touches on your pitch that will really make it seem like an idea that everyone will want to buy- remember every show began as a simple idea.
