book

In the late 1960's, a small recently-integrated school in Tennessee saw the football team come together in spite of racial barriers to post four undefeated seasons, setting a state record for victories. Without a dominant star or even the same coach, they used guts, determination, and love to win.

Biographical,Drama,Family,Young Adult

The story begins with a football game, two undefeated teams battling with a state record on the line. There is much more than local pride represented -- the atmosphere perfectly captures the tone of a small town and the nation as the 1960's ended and the 70's began. Angst gives way to celebration.
