Who is Guzzo?

Guzzo is one of Quinn’s best friends; they play together on the school basketball team. Guzzo is physically very big, just like his older brother Paul Galluzzo. Guzzo and Quinn are together the night Quinn witnesses Paul attack Rashad, however Guzzo does not see it happen. Guzzo adamantly defends his brother’s actions, saying his brother was just doing his job. He tries to pressure Quinn to remain loyal, and feels confused and betrayed when Quinn voices his opposition to Paul's actions. Tension continues between the two friends throughout the novel, and Guzzo ultimately punches Quinn after basketball practice, ending their friendship.
