OLDER FICTION
Martino, Alfred C.

Over the End Line

(4) YA Wannabe soccer star Jonny Fehey longs to be atop the high school social ladder, alongside golden boy Kyle Saint-Claire. After scoring a game-winning goal, Jonny's invited to hang with Kyle and the in-crowd at "the circle," where Jonny witnesses--and doesn't stop--a rape. The story's resolution is unsatisfying, but Martino's portrait of the high school caste system is realistic.
