Story for Mapping Project

Dan,
I was not aware that there was no story with my groups mapping project, so I am writing one so that we do not lose points for not having one. I tried contacting Jackson all day and he has not been responding and was not in class, so I am writing it on here before 5 and it will be attached later once Jackson is available.

Story:

Basketball is a sport that was founded in Springfield, Massachusetts. Over the past few decades it has quickly become one of the most popular American sports, spreading to almost all high schools and colleges in the United States. Here in the North East Kingdom, we have some great competition between schools. Both boys and girls take the court with one thought in mind: Win. Lyndon Institute, St. Johnsbury Academy, Thetford Academy and Littleton High School have Boys and Girls squads who have had great success as a team at one point or another in there history. Lyndon Institute is a private school located in Lyndonville. After a subpar season for the girls team, new head coach Eric Berry will look to take over and revamp this squad into a championship contender. As for the boys, a few average seasons are not ok with the team as they will look to take the next step to make the playoffs. St. Johnsbury academy has always dominated every sport they participate in. With students from around the world they are able to be one of the top schools in the area. Look for both the boys and girls teams to have strong seasons. Thetford Academy is a private school that has been a competitor for quite some time now. While facing tough competition like Danville and South Royalton, the boys team will look to be considered one of the best in their division. The girls team has always been a tough competitor, but has never been able to make it to the next level. This year they will look to try and prove everyone wrong and have a successful season. Littleton High School is a team that has long dominated in many sports. Since Littleton is the biggest town in there area, they have a lot more depth and talent coming into their school system. Their boys and girls teams have always been fierce opponents to all that face them, and they will look to continue their winning ways in Littleton. No matter who you are a fan of, it should be a great basketball season in the NEK for all.
