Apology - 9/10/2006 in 2005 - 2007: High School
Mr. Thomas, I wanted to talk to you today at practice, but I never really got the chance to, so I guess an email is the next best thing. I want to personally apologize for what I did Wednesday n...
Wedding, Day Two - 9/6/2006 in 2005 - 2007: High School

Lost - 8/5/2006 in 2005 - 2007: High School
