(4) YA Sophomore Liam gets called up to play varsity basketball. His excitement is crushed, though, when the star player quits, and Liam recognizes that racial prejudice is involved. Further questions regarding the coach's mandatory prayer meetings force Liam to take a stand. Though the characters are wooden, the story raises difficult issues and offers solid basketball action.
