V2 ch13

Immediately all eyes went on me as someone from the players side of the rope approached our giant group. My teammates near me, gave me space and a spot up front like it was an unspoken decision to begin with. It made it easy for Rose, the short Asian girl to find me in the crowd. 

She was in her uniform of khakis and an A's polo shirt. A lanyard was hanging from her neck, designating her as staff. 

Rose grinned as she reached us. "It's good to see you boys so soon." She looked around. "Are these your teammates? Jeremy told me that you guys were invited for the CIF Champions announcement."

"Hi." I said politely.

She looked among the group. "Which one is your head coach?"

Coach stepped forward. "I am. How can I help you?"

She stuck out her hand and introduced herself. "I'm Rose Shimizu, I work in the public relations department for the A's. I'm actually going to act as your team's guide until you guys walk out on the field."
