Report by Gabriel R.
The main character is a seventeen year old football player and he is in high school. He is a student and his name is Jim. He is fast and strong, but he has one problem. He is afraid of being tackled.
The story takes place on the football field where the Vulcans played against the Cadets, Saturns and the Astrojets, who all battle for first place, while a player from the Vulcans, named Jim, overcomes his fears.
He is afraid to get hit and he can't catch a ball, but he is good at running and he does not want to get hurt. The most exciting part was when Jim caught the ball and made a touchdown.
Jim was helped to be more confident, and a stronger and better football player by talking to his coach. The coach told him that when he was young he had the same problems and he showed him how to solve them.
