'A stirring tribute to small-town grit, heart, and the true meaning of team. Newman captures the magic of a once in-a-lifetime season with honesty, warmth, and insight.''An unforgettable account of what it means to believe in yourself and your teammates when no one else does. This story will inspire athletes and dreamers alike.'A True Story of Grit, Heart, and High School GloryIn the sweltering summer of 1964, no one gave the Grants Pass High School football team a chance. They had lost every offensive starter from the previous year and were written off before the season even began. But what the doubters didn’t see was a team forged in fire underdogs with relentless drive, unknown talents, and an unbreakable brotherhood. Told by team member Stephen Newman, Improbable Champions is a deeply personal, often humorous, and always heartfelt memoir of a team that defied every odd. It’s a story about football, yes but also about community, loyalty, and the kind of character that lasts a lifetime. For anyone who’s ever loved the game, believed in the impossible, or found greatness in unlikely places, this is your story.
