Lit Circle 4

Our fourth lit circle was based on chapters 8-10. Chapter 8 started off by Coach Cater taking the team to the hotel after a big win. As the night progressed Coach Carter went to go talk to Damien when he found out that his son nor the team were in their rooms. Coach went out in search for his team and found them at a local party. Carter walked into the party where there was loud music and drinking going on. He saw his son and the rest of the team in the pool drinking Mountain Dew with vodka. He brought the team back to the hotel to retrieve their things and immediately headed back to the school. Coach Carter went to his office and found the progress reports of his team on his desk and read the results, the results were horrible. The next day players were heading to the gym and found a sign on the door saying practice cancelled. Many of the players thought that he was just giving them a day off. The players went to Coach Carters office and found out that they cannot play basketball until they get their grades back up. A few days had passed, there haden't been any practice for a while and the Freemont game was tomorrow. Coach was getting lots of phone calls about the game whether he would unlock the gym or make the team forfite the game. He decided that it was the best choice to forfite the game and give Richmond High their first loss of the season. Many parents because of the lock out were very angry at Coach Carter.
