Hazards of the Half-court Press

It was the world's fastest summer. A summer of basketball. A summer of growing up. A summer of becoming best friends. School starts in a few days, but first comes the basketball league championship. The Lewis and Clark Squad is in the semifinals. They think their toughest challenge is to beat the other team. Instead, their about to face their greatest adventures off the court. Cody Clark suspects trouble when nobody shows up for practice. Larry Bird Lewis miss a practice? Something big must have happened. With a little detective work Cody learns Feather is in another city and Jeremiah is on his way to Colorado. That leaves only Larry and Cody to play in the semifinals. With a few creative plays and little help from a friend, they might be able to win their game...if they can get past that wild, basketball hungry boar
