I have read to page 74. There are two main characters in this book. they are Jay Borschel and Dan LeClere. The author doesn't really describe them into detail. he just says that Jay is very built and weighs about 171 pounds. Dan is not as built but has a low center of gravity and is very scrappy. Jay attends the school Linn-Mar and Dan goes to school about 20 minutes away at North- Linn. They are both going to be 4 time state champions in Iowa.
