About this listen

Two high-school girls growing up in the inner city, one Japanese American, the other African American, hunger for basketball stardom and a life beyond South Central Los Angeles. 

As a star basketball player in her last year of high school, Nancy Takahiro's life is about to change forever. Facing the fear of leaving home and wondering where her skill will take her, Nancy is not prepared for the complications that arise when she meets Raina Webber, a devoted, ferocious athlete, whose love of basketball is matched only by her talent for it.
