About this ebook
Jake Maddox
Who is Jake Maddox? Athlete, author, world-traveler – or all three? He has surfed in Hawaii, scuba-dived in Australia, and climbed the mountains of Peru and Alaska. His books range from the most popular team sports to outdoor activities to survival adventures and even to auto racing. His exploits have inspired numerous writers to walk in his footsteps – literally! Each of his stories is stamped with teamwork, fair play, and a strong sense of self-worth and discipline. Always a team-player, Maddox realizes it takes more than one man (or woman) to create a book good enough for a young reader. He hopes the lessons learned on the court, field, or arena and the champion sprinter pace of his books can motivate kids to become better athletes and lifelong readers.

It was easy for the boys to smile. Josh and Matt were great athletes, and tonight their team had won again.

I thought for sure we’d run out of time before you made that last shot,
Josh admitted to Matt.
All I was thinking about was sinking that basket,
Matt said. I never even thought about the clock.
Well, you were the only one,
their dad said. The rest of us were holding our breath!

Okay, everyone to the table for pizza,
Mom said. Time to celebrate!
She turned and walked through the kitchen door.
Austin’s dad and brothers walked out of the room, still talking about the game. Austin stayed in the living room. He looked up at the awards and trophies on the bookcase. None of them belonged to him. Matt and Josh had won them all.
