Getting Lonnie
by J. H. M. Fox
GETTING LONNIE is a story about 2 college freshman roommates in 1986. Lonnie is a thick-thighed handsome lacrosse student, and while he’s on an athletic scholarship, he’s having trouble with his studies. He’s the first in his family to go to college, so staying in school is not only important for his self-esteem, but for his family’s pride, too. If he loses his scholarship, he’s out on his butt.
