Description
We are delighted that Mr. West will be able to join us. Due to health issues, he was unable to come when originally scheduled on March 8th.
You may recall that this book, Blind Your Ponies, was originally self-published. English teacher and basketball coach Sam Pickett hasn't won a game in five seasons and decides to quit coaching, but he changes his mind after getting a look at the 6-ft.-11 Norwegian exchange student, Olaf Gustafson. As the team coalesces around Olaf and begins winning games, their march toward the state tournament inspires Willow Creek and ignites a touching romance between Sam and his assistant coach. It's an uplifting story about the triumph of human decency and will warm your heart.
