Transitive verb 'win'

Some students my age like to play sports. Others love fashion or computer games. As for me, spelling bees are my biggest passion. Every day after school, I sit on the front steps of my house reading through my old dictionary. My training ?pays off when I get what my friends can hardly spell. It’s 6:30 on a Friday morning. As soon as I open my eyes, I ?feel butterflies in my stomach. To calm my nerves, I remind myself of the fact that I’m one of the best spellers in my grade. In fact, I’m not aiming to win the national competition. All I want is to ?beat my biggest rival, Dan, at the school’s spelling bee. His passion for spelling isn’t as strong as mine, but he seems to be a good speller without putting much effort into it. Actually, his true interest ?lies in math and science. I ?bet he’ll be out in the first round, especially if he gets a literary word like “metamorphosis.”
