Book Synopsis
A Team Against All Odds
Hatcher has big football dreams. He wants to be a play-calling star. A legend. So, he joins a city youth team with the hopes of helping them design plays to win a championship. But when his inability to read plays correctly gets him cut to the B-team--a group of scrappy misfits--his dream of winning turns to surviving a season of Cajun craziness.
Enter cousin Heatha, who, forced to live with them, attempts to discover the root of Hatcher's problems. How can latchkey kids Hatcher and Heatha work together to defy the odds?
