Official synopsis Publisher
More than anything else, Franco dreams of going pro some day. After all, his soccer coaches say he’s the best kind of player–more giving than greedy, preferring to rack up the assists instead of scoring goals. And that method works just fine until Franco has to change schools. On his new team, the Warlocks, Franco’s pass-first approach to soccer just isn’t working.
