Now, at fourteen, Ed secretly wishes he could play for his Calgary High Mustangs team. But he worries that he's too tall, too skinny and too insecure -- the exact opposite of star quarterback Tyrone Jackson. Wanting to contribute to the school's football team in some way, Ed accepts the job of waterboy. Tyrone teases Ed about his build, his old bike and his obvious crush on Tyrone's girlfriend and school sports reporter Zara, and one day at practice throws a ball right at Ed's head. Ed's instincts kick in and he makes a decent catch! So when the team's top receiver gets injured, Ed joins the team as back-up receiver. Getting annoyed that Zara seems to prefer Ed's company to his own, Tyrone won't pass to Ed, and even calls a play he knows could get Ed hurt. But the big game against their rival team puts school pride and Ed's confidence on the line. Will Tyrone throw to Ed? Can Ed catch a crucial pass and make his dreams of being a football hero come true?"-- $c Provided by publisher. 541 $d 20210215. 650 $a Team sports $v Fiction. 650 $a Team sports $v Juvenile fiction. 650 1 $a Football $v Fiction. 650 1 $a Football $v Juvenile fiction. 710 $a Howling, Eric, 1956-, $d Toronto : James Lorimer & Company Ltd., Publishers, 2020. 830 $a Sports stories. 830 $a Sports stories. 941 $a 2 952 $l 3HSX245 $d 20231214011905.0 952 $l YMPD532 $d 20210630013530.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=A16D323AD96811EB9280A5A654ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
