The Outside Shot Chapter #3

In chapter 3, Lonnie returns back to school. He starts out sitting in his American Government and meets his teacher, Mr.Weiser. Instantly as Lonnie scans the classroom he realizes there are only three other black students in the class. The teacher was doing his lesson so quickly, Lonnie didn't have enough time to write hardly anything. Lonnie had many doubts about the class as he was leaving. But on his way out, a brown-skinned girl taps him on his shoulder and asks him his name.Her name was Sherry Jewett, she was also in the class with Lonnie. It turned out that she was also a/an athlete there.She later tells Lonnie that she's trying to get a study group going. Lonnie agrees to it, and then ask how many people are in the group? She replies "two, because the other twenty-five don't have time." After they set up a time, Lonnie heads back to his dorm and then leaves for tryouts. He then gets to see all of his roommates in action, and sees that they're all pretty good. Soon after practice, Lonnie runs into a redshirt on the team, and he explains to Lonnie this game they've got going. It turns out to be a gambling league for anybody who's truly good at basketball. And from that point on they convince Lonnie to play.
