Chapter 21: The Meeting

At four o'clock on Tuesday the home locker room held twenty-six players, two assistants, and a smell of rubber and nerves.

Torin sat on the bench beside his locker, in a suit jacket, with his hands between his knees.

Dane stood at the front by the whiteboard, in a pressed shirt, with the C pinned over his heart.

He had asked to speak, and he looked ready.

"Gentlemen," Dane said.

"I'll be brief.

"I've served this team for four years.

"Last Tuesday I was assaulted on my own porch, and the man who did it is sitting right there."

He did not look at Torin.

He looked at the room, and he lowered his voice.

"There's a student who's been poisoning this team with lies.

"A cheat, a fraud, who writes papers for money, and who has Schuler wrapped around his finger.

"I took it to the dean because it's my duty as captain."
