Chapter 50

Now we were in Hilton Head, South Carolina, having made the finals without Cameron. His game had fallen apart. He’d been taken off of the number two singles spot and made an alternate. Then Victor Pratt injured himself during his singles match. We were tied two-two against Kingham University, and Cameron would have to play the final match that would determine everything.

I suspected Kingham’s coach had made Cameron’s movies public knowledge. To say that school had a conservative “Christian” streak would be an understatement. The president was Talbot Hayes, a televangelist who prayed for hurricanes and tornadoes to strike gay pride parades. Hayes and the Kingham coach were the first in the league to say Cameron should be disqualified from tournament play. However, conference officials figured Kingham had other reasons to demand removing a strong Bradenton player.
