Praise for The Final Four by Paul Volponi: "Volponi, a multiple award-winning author, keeps the tension high from the first to last page . The Final Four is definitely a winner." -- VOYA , starred review "A triple-overtime game keeps readers on the edge of their seats, but nerve-wracking as the action on the floor may be, the baggage that the players bring to the game is equally fraught." -- BCCB , starred review "With exciting game action . this gritty, realistic, and riveting novel deserves the wide audience it will no doubt attract." -- School Library Journal , starred review "Volponi nails it when it counts in this dynamic story." -- Booklist , starred review "Volponi's latest combines in-the-moment action, basketball history and the points of view of four college ballplayers with very different lives . No story or character is simple.
