Castro & Sapp — Paul Johnson

Gervin High school is the heart and soul of the Township of Gervin community. Everyone loves the blue-tiful landscaping, our icey wood floors in The Igloo and most importantly our school's basketball history. The generations that have walked these Gervin halls have created one of the strongest alumni associations in the whole city. With all that being said, it sucks for us because WE'RE FROM BRACKETVILLE! Although crossing town lines won't exactly cause a World War, let's just say the shade can get shadier than Shady McShadington herself. Attending Gervin High was basically my idea. I had to do some convincing but ultimately I got Castro to buy in. See, Montrose AKA Munny AKA Bracketville's Second Coming AKA King of the Honeydome AKA former-Swordsman-turned-Master Baller, has the starting guard spot over at Bracketville High all sewn up. I figured going there would only bury us at the end of the bench and the chances of us seeing playing time before sophomore year are slim to none provided we even make the team! Btdubbs, I say we but I really mean Castro—I don't actually play basketball, I think it. Innovation and I have been friends since I was old enough to create my own apple sauce flavored pacifier at just six months old. 'Til this day, I do love a good Granny Smith.Castro, comes from a long line of ball players: Uncle Ice, our spiritual fruit and natural spices guide averaged over 40 points per game back in the day. Cash's mom Cherry, still holds the all-time assists record at B-High with 16 per. I'm pretty sure she poured in close to 4 steals per game every game since her freshman year. Now that I think of it, that's a lot of theft coming from a police officer. CK, Castro's older sister and my idol, is my favoritest person in the whole wide world. She is the starting center for Bracketville State U., so you can imagine the pressure my main man feels even hooping in the first place. Her 39 points, plus her buddies Sizz's 11 dimes and Amaru's 17 rebounds per game, has led B-State to the number one slot in Bracketville's City's College Power Rank. Infiltrating the Gervin High Basketball system isn't going to be difficult. It's going to be quite simple actually. We're going to march into the school, kick down Coach Abdullah's doors, make the team, out-shine the seniors and get Castro the 31 minutes per game that he deserves. This is our time. This is our chance. This is our moment. Easy as pie... right?PS- I'm pretty good in Math and STEM, so if you need help with homework, feel free to email me at Sapp@BracketvilleBooks.com. With Castro's playing time hanging in the balance, I'll try my best to get back to you as fast as a gazelle on a carousel! Oh, and be sure to go online and grab a free poster.
