The problem is tough: a poor math grade plus anunsympathetic coach equals no basketball team. Jared’s only hope is peertutoring from Ellie Brejovic, the weirdo classmate whom everyone teases. To hissurprise, Ellie makes math make sense, except that Jared would rather admit tocheating than let the guys know about her. Turns out that’s the really bigmistake, one that could cost Jared not just a spot on the team, but somethingfar more valuable.
