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.

TRYOUT TERROR
Quincy Green took a deep breath and opened the car door. Today was the day he’d been working toward all summer: the all-city soccer tryouts. He couldn’t believe it was finally here.

his mom said from the driver’s side. Just get out there and give it everything you’ve got.
That’s what I’m worried about, Ma. That my best won’t be enough,
he said.
Quincy grabbed his water bottle and jogged toward the field. There were tons of kids running, kicking balls, and talking with each other. The soccer tryouts were a big deal for players across the city.
