Summertime Dropouts
When an NBA team suddenly announces open tryouts, a high-school janitor gets a second chance at both life and love. Scott Beck was a shoo-in for the NBA--or so he, and everyone, thought. Twenty years later he's a janitor at his former high school, having been passed over during the draft. Or so everyone thought. 20 years later he's a janitor at the old high school he once attended, having been passed over during the draft. He's still a legend there with the current team, but life and reality changed his plans. In the present day he's juggling a nagging landlady, tight finances, a frequently-broken truck, and an ill father. Every day is the same and he's feeling bleak--until an old flame and a new opportunity come into his life. Ryan Aikens, his high-school sweetheart and former fiancée, is now the owner of the Knoxville Silver Knights, their hometown team. After firing two players for criminal and unethical behavior, the team is in desperate need of replacements, but financial issues pose a problem to recruitment. Butting heads with Coach Banks, Ryan decides to hold open tryouts which brings Scott and Ryan back into each other's lives. Will the past Scott gave up on years ago come back for a second chance with the sport and the woman he still loves? With God, nothing is impossible. —C. Lorz
