No Customer Reviews
It's 1975, and Detroit native Mark Nelson has decided he wants to go to college-against his parents' advice and without any of their support. But Mark has a drive from within, and he knows he wants to go to University of Michigan and play football. He doesn't receive an athletic scholarship, so he walks on to try to fulfill his dream of earning a Wolverine sticker on his football helmet. Although Mark receives some financial aid and an academic scholarship, he works in a factory over the summer to earn enough to make his college career a reality.Readers of other James Shaw books may recognize Mark from his appearances in Defensive End and Throw a Good Pass as a teammate of Tom Mochina's, but even those who haven't met him before will appreciate his heartfelt desire to meet the goals he's set for himself. Mark is committed to becoming the best man he can be, whatever obstacles he may encounter-both on and off the football field. As his college years come to an end, Mark is pleased with the progress he's made, but he finds his work is still not done. Once again he must make the right choices to continue moving his life toward the fulfillment of his goals. Take this journey with him to find out what his future may ultimately hold.
