Today I interviewed Morningside Senior Dayne Davis about a useful skill. For context- I have previously played basketball with and against Dayne in the past and have experienced how talented Dayne is at basketball. With this in mind, I asked Dayne how he developed those skills and how they are useful to him.
Dayne spoke about his older brother, 4 years older, and how he used to practice with him and his basketball teams growing up. He developed his skills by playing against older competition that would have been better than the competition at his age. Dayne was able to develop his skills through playing with his brother, though he took other lessons from basketball.
Not only did basketball help Dayne develop his physical abilities, but it helped him learn how to be in a team. As a part of a team, Dayne learned “how to work with other people,” he told me.
You’re doing a lot of paraphrasing and summary, Joe, which is fine,
but it’s also important to let the source speak. Use quotes to reveal
