Lovers of the underdog and champions of change will enjoy this fast-paced football story. It is a tale full of change and how courage, friendship, and determination can help a team not only survive but thrive during the unexpected. From the humble star to his faithful friends, readers will be cheering for the whole team to reclaim their season and along the way they learn a few things about flexibility. A great sports read and an even better example of character when it counts.
Publisher Summary
The Franklin High Panthers need a new quarterback.

Freshman Jesse Wagner knows the plays, but he feels he is too small to be QB material. Jesse's brother Jay has a problem of his own: his college coach wants him to switch from quarterback to safety. The brothers agree on a deal: Jesse will try out for quarterback, and Jay will try playing safety.

Meanwhile, Jesse and his teammates recruit an unlikely kicker for their team―a girl named Savannah who is a goalie from the girls' soccer team.

In the afterword, Bowen provides real stories of successful professional athletes, like Pro Football Hall of Famer Fran Tarkenton, who did not "look the part."
