Around my 7th grade year I played for Gateway middle. After my 7th grade year I noticed how good I had a chance to become better. I worked out all summer going into my 8th grade year , going to the YMCA and also watching older people I knew that was good at basketball. My 8th grade year I attended Compton Drew Middle, 1 of the best middle schools in Missouri. We had a successful season and went to the championship and lost. We played a total of 11 games and my season Total I ended up with a Total of 140 Points and 95 Assist.
