There was only one thing that Andy liked more than biology: basketball. For months, Andy went to the backyard and practiced his shots every night after dinner. He loved the feeling of the basketball in his hands and the ________ the ball made when it sailed through the net. Swish! The best sound in the world !

"Psst! Andy!" Tommy was trying to get his attention.

"I feel like this class will never_________," said Tommy.

Suddenly the bell rang and the class was over. When they rushed to the gym, Andy's heart sank. At least 60 boys were there. Andy knew the basketball team only had ________ for 20 people. What if only one of them made the team ? That would be worse.

Tommy was waiting outside for Andy when the tryouts were over.

"How did it go?" Tommy asked.

"Um . . . I think it went alright…"

"Anyway, the coach will_______ a list of who made the team tomorrow before school," Tommy patted Andy on the shoulder. Then they walked home in ______
