Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's March Madness, and the University of Monroe Metrics are heading for an early end to a good but not great season. Then they are inspired by a mentor who shows them how to see the poetry inside and outside of them. The Metrics use this new energy to begin a march toward the national championship game and a date with their greatest potential. Mark Fogarty's sweet, funny short novel will introduce you to a team of worldclass athletes: Pip Pippen, who may or may not be related to Scottie Pippen; Lady Dagger, a combination of elegance and personal poetry; Jams, who has dunked in practice but never in a game; Meta Mustapha, who finds this book a name; GG, who has Pip's back when opposing players headhunt her; the backups, a closeknit group known as the Beeline, and Silly, an injured player who travels with the team. You'll also meet their nemesis, the Constitution University Amendments and their star player, the Big Girl; the Diametrics, the Metrics' offbeat marching band; and their poetry coach Eduardo Jonas.
