I have to identify the adverbs(in caps) and the adjectives (in parentheses) in this paragraph I wrote.
Could someone please tell me if they are correct?
The Verona Wildcats "football" team is an "amazing" team to watch "this" year. Their "bone-crushing hits" and "neck-breaking" speeds are enough to make anyone stand UP and cheer. WHEN the quarterback winds up to make a pass, the "substantial" crowd looks up and down the field to see who is going to EAGERLY receive the ball. He EASILY hits his mark with his "precise" throws. The "offensive" line is on the field to make sure their boys SWIFTLY get to the end zone. Defense is EQUALLY as "entertaining". WHEN they are out on the field, they QUICKLY find their target, PATIENTLY wait for the whistle, and FIERCELY take out their mark with the speed and precision of a cheetah. The team is "stupendous" and has not had a loss yet "this" year. They DEFINITELY live up to their name of Wildcats, FEROCIOUSLY attacking any "other" team on the field with them like a bunch of "hungry" lions. Go Wildcats!
Besides the adjectives and adverbs, is the rest of the sentence grammatically correct also?
Verona Wildcats also modifies team .
"to watch this year" is an adjective infinitive phrase modifying team.
Hits is the noun that bone-crushing modifies. "enough" is a predicate adjective. To make anyone cheer is an infinitive phrase used as an adverb to modify enough.
"When the quarterback winds up to make a pass" is an adverb clause. " To make a pass" is an infinitive adverb phrase. "up and down the field" is an adverb preposition phrase. "to see who is going to EAGERLY receive the ball" is an adverb infinitive phrase.
"with his precise throws" is an adverb prepositional phrase.
You can look through the rest of this to find the other phrases and clauses that are used as adverbs and adjectives.
Thank you!
Identifying the adverbs (in caps) and adjectives (in parentheses):
1. The Verona Wildcats "football" team is an (amazing) team to watch "this" year.
2. Their "bone-crushing" hits and "neck-breaking" speeds are enough to make anyone stand UP and cheer.
3. WHEN the quarterback winds up to make a pass, the (substantial) crowd looks up and down the field to see who is going to EAGERLY receive the ball.
4. He EASILY hits his mark with his (precise) throws.
5. The (offensive) line is on the field to make sure their boys SWIFTLY get to the end zone.

9. They DEFINITELY live up to their name of Wildcats, FEROCIOUSLY attacking any (other) team on the field with them like a bunch of (hungry) lions.
As for the grammatical correctness of the rest of the sentences, they appear to be grammatically correct. However, there are a few minor suggestions that could enhance the clarity and flow:
1. Change "make anyone stand UP and cheer" to "make anyone stand up and cheer."
2. Change "He EASILY hits his mark" to "He hits his mark EASILY."
3. Change "The (offensive) line is on the field to make sure their boys SWIFTLY get to the end zone" to "The (offensive) line is on the field to ensure their boys get to the end zone SWIFTLY."
4. Change "Defense is EQUALLY as (entertaining)" to "Defense is equally (entertaining)."
5. Change "They DEFINITELY live up to their name of Wildcats, FEROCIOUSLY attacking any (other) team on the field with them like a bunch of (hungry) lions" to "They unmistakably live up to their name, Wildcats, as they FEROCIOUSLY attack any (other) team on the field like a pack of (hungry) lions."
Overall, the paragraph is grammatically correct, but these adjustments may improve the sentence structure and readability.
