Mike Preston: In fast sport of lacrosse, the slowest team might win the tittle.In Mike Preston's column he ironically explains why in the fast sport of lacrosse, the slowest team might just win the tittle to NCAA Division I National Championship, by appealing to pathos logos and ethos.
Preston opens his column about the championship with "The fastest game on two feet has come to a slowdown again." This has his audience thinking and wondering "how in the world can such a fast game be won by being the slowest team?" Preston explains his theory through the appeal to pathos logos, and ethos.
The appeal to logos is evident from the second paragraph "Men's lacrosse, bills as one of America's fastest-moving sports." This appeals to logic as it appears to the audience that Preston has done his research and is not just simply stating opinions but rather facts. Preston as well appeals to logos when he pulls in evidence from coach John Tillman to support his claim "At this time of year, you're trying to be opportunistic and try to maximize each opportunity, get a good shot. and for us, that's how we are. if it takes us longer, we've got to be disciplined enough to wait for the best shot and not the first shot." This agrees with Preston's theory Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.
