Biography

Adam  McKinney

Adam  McKinney  was  born  on  December  6th,  1975.  Adam  is  my  Uncle.  I  chose  to  write  about  him  because  I  think  he  had  a  very  interesting  life  as  a  kid,  for  example  he  was  part  of  the  little  league  world  series,  went  to  Benton  High  School,  and  played  football.

Adam  was  selected  to  represent  Missouri  in  the  Little  League  World  Series  his  6th  grade  year.  During  the  tournament  he  was  shutting  teams  down  on  National  TV,  until  he  took  a  line  drive  to  the  mouth.  He  was  escorted  off  the  Nield  and  rushed  to  the  hospital,  two  hours  later  Adam  returned  to  the  tournament  and  threw  a  shut  out  for  his  team.  Baseball  was  Adam’s  favorite  sport,  and  still  is.

  Adam  was  part  of  the  class  of  1993.  He  was  an  average  student  At  Benton  High  School.  His  favorite  subject  was  Reading  and  Writing.  He  had  one  story  to  sum  his  career  at  Benton  “His  Nirst  day  at  Benton  two  seniors  were  acting  like  they  were  Nighting,  then  one  threw  another  into  the  trophy  case.”  He  uses  this  to  some  his  career  because  it  was  unexpected.  

  Adam  played  wide  receiver  for  Benton;  he  was  a  3-­‐year  letter  athlete  in  football.  He  enjoyed  playing  football  with  friends  and  family.  He  didn’t  really  play  defense  at  Benton.  Even  to  this  day  he  will  admit  that  he  was  not  ass  good  at  football  as  baseball.       Adam  is  my  favorite  uncle,  and  you  could  probably  see  why.He  always  try’s  to  give  any  advice  he  has  to  me,  even  if  it  is  hard  for  him.  I  was  able  to  get  all  this  information  by  an  iterveiw.
