The Rhyming Season

By Edward Averett
(YA F Aver)
214 pages 2005 Sports Fiction

Bre’s teammates are stunned by their coach’s departure, leaving the state-bound team in the hands of a quirky replacement whose offbeat philosophy includes assigning the girls names of poets. Public humiliation follows as the team recites poems rather loudly at the free throw line. Is there a revolt in the making? (Grades 8 & up)
