Examples of starter in a Sentence

1. Sally Pearson:

   The way I ran at nationals was a relief more than anything, i've been trying to change my race a bit, especially my start, working toward getting it back to the good old days in 2011 and 2012 where I was the best starter in the world, and( until Brisbane) my start had been a bit off this year.

2. Todd Bowles:

   When I was a player, the door was always open for anybody to take a spot, you have to make me notice you, and as coaches, you have to show yourself when we put you out there to make plays in certain situations. So you’re the starter until somebody plays better than you and replaces you. If nobody plays better than you, you’re probably going to be the starter.

But definitely be open to questions and help the growth and development of a younger quarterback, yeah.

4. Chad Kuhl:

   I believe in myself, i’m committed to being a starter, but I’ve always been a team guy. It’s always been my nature to try to win, so whatever I can do to help is what I am going to do. But I believe that is going to be to start. I believe I add a lot of value as a starter.

5. Joyce Dubner:

   I think if they're going to build houses they should be starter homes and more property to rent.
