Bab 109: People Watching

Chris and Mike had been willing to give the other team a handicap because of the "disadvantage" of Penelope being the only girl. She frostily told them that she didn't need it and proved her point by beating them two games in a row without one.

Penelope couldn't help but preen a little. "Well, I did go to college on a volleyball scholarship."

Mike laughed and clapped his teammate on the shoulder. "That explains it. Dude, we got schooled by a pro."

She hadn't even finished the four years that were stipulated in her contract. Even if she had, getting scouted for professional volleyball was highly unlikely since there were only a handful of teams in the entire country.
