Reviews for Against All Odds: The Story of a World Champion who Turned his Trauma into Triumph

Tyree's story can teach us all how human spirit and willpower can burn bright enough to transcend circumstances through embracing what is difficult and greeting it head on with unflinching bravery. - Amy Acuff, 5-Time U.S. Olympian in track and field. Tyree Washington was not supposed to make it based on statistics of kids who grew up in the type of environment that he did even with sports as an outlet. Not only did he battle the odds to get into school to further his education himself, he was able to take his life experiences and use them as positive motivation to create a better life for himself and propel his athletic career to unattainable heights. Tyree is a warrior, and I will go to battle with him any day. - Patrick J. Johnson, Super Bowl XXXV champion and West Valley Eagles Track Club teammate. In life, we can succeed at whatever we set our minds to achieving. Tyree's book will point you in the right direction. - Lawrence Rawson, Emmy Award winning track and field commentator. Tyree Washington is a preeminent example of out of your misery comes your ministry. A true inspiration to all those that have fallen down and seek inspiration to get back up. - Mark Crear PhD, two-time Olympian. Tyree's story is truly about overcoming the odds. He had every aspect of life stacked against him as a young adult. This story is one that will inspire young, old, and professionals alike, especially the youth. - Blackman Ihem, Tyree's personal track coach We knew we had a special one. Tyree had it all. He was fast, he was tough, good-looking, and most importantly, he had possessed that inner spirit. As a young football recruit coming out of La Sierra High School, he didn't know it, but as a recruiter, I did. I knew he could be great. I know what it looks like. However, I couldn't foresee the circumstances which would galvanize and shape Tyree into the world champion that he is today. Ty's story is a road map of perseverance, faith, and finish. This is a must read for anyone and everyone facing adversity and hardship but holding strong to vision and hope. You are not alone-and Ty wants you to know that you can do it! Don Pellum, UCLA football, inside linebackers' coach
