"...Made his lofty speech about the trust and unity they would have to build in order to succeed here and in life, the incoming students intuited that the next four years were crucial, that there would be no do-overs or second chances." (page

Friar was really involved with all that has to do with unity and trust, he was pretty direct and fearless specially when helping someone. He knew that all the boys in the group had problems and he had to help them either resolve them or put them aside. He knew this was to be his priority and then came the rest which was classes, sports and hosting parent nights

Tavarus Hester

"During the fall of freshman year, he'd sensed anger in rob that ran parallel to his own." (page 86

Tavarus knew rob a little better than the rest of the class since they were in the same color group. they also had something in common an anger they both were holding. They both joined the swim team.

Drew Jemison

" He wasn't a brawler because he didn't have to be" (page 87)

Drew seemed as a guy who could bully others but would never actually do it. He didn't have a wealthy home. Yet he understood exactly what he wanted.

Julius "Flowy" Starkes

valeriaibanez00 — 2015-04-28 21:08:58 UTC

"People called him Flowy for his ability to exist casually in a grid of blocks where men and boys could be killed simply for walking down a street they didn't live on." (page 87)

Flowy had been threw a lot of things since he was born so much damage. Yet he managed to control himself and go with the flow. He was really well known in a good way and everyone liked him.

Curtis Gamble

valeriaibanez00 — 2015-04-28 21:16:57 UTC

"...the boy who knew how best to spend each hour" (page 87)

Curtis had it easier then rob or any of the other four boys. He was seen as a model for other kids since he was easygoing, hilarious and he always knew how to spend his time to the maximum. Plus he provided his home and family for his crew.

Raquel

valeriaibanez00 — 2015-05-06 18:59:12 UTC

" she was the kind of person of person around whom you had to be careful about the opinions you expressed, because if she disagreed, she would let you know it." (page 157)

Her and rob shared the same struggles and background. Both had no dad near them growing up but they did have a single, poor, minority mother by their side. They both found relief by exceling in both sports and education although Raquel's attitude was a lot more harder to contain then Rob's .

Oswaldo Gutierrez

valeriaibanez00 — 2015-05-08 06:38:26 UTC

"Oswaldo was, in a word, guarded"(page 158)

He was a reserved man who could act polite yet he had no real respect. His story and robs wasn't that different considering where they both came from they would always talk about their homes. They both hated ale and the white stuck up people there
