In this compilation of short stories; editor/compiler Joe Wheeler captures the physical challenges and character-building choices of twelve young athletes.

How will a sponge diver; who desperately needs $100 for a sloop; handle diving into the dangerous reef where his father died and his grandfather lost the use of his legs? When a hockey player's grand-standing costs his team points; what will the coach--his father--do and how will his son respond?
