A freshman’s adjustment to varsity volleyball

Payton Moore enters high school with strong basketball skills, but earning a place on the varsity volleyball team proves to be a different challenge. Her recruitment by senior Annette Reynolds unsettles the team, while her best friend Renika’s natural volleyball ability puts their friendship under strain. Set amid school routines and team competition, the story connects the demands of learning a new sport with questions of belonging, rivalry, and friendship. The season’s goal—reaching State—gives Payton’s effort a clear team stakes.

Alarm. Breakfast. Bus. Bio. Spanish. Socials. Study. Lunch. Calc. Humanities. Bell. And THEN the day starts. Knee pads, ponytail. Full court. No drama. But drama is just the beginning when senior Annette Reynolds recruits incoming freshman Payton Moore to play for the varsity team. Payton quickly finds that her superior basketball talent doesn't translate to the volleyball court, resulting in a divided team and a rift between Payton and her best friend Renika, whose natural ability for volleyball earns her a starting position on the varsity team. Will Payton get it together in time to help her team make it to State or will she be left behind while Renika gets Bumped Up?
