Details

A True Story of Grit, Heart, and High School Glory

In the sweltering summer of 1964, no one gave the Grants Pass High School football team a chance. They had lost every offensive starter from the previous year and were written off before the season even began. But what the doubters didn't see was a team forged in fire underdogs with relentless drive, unknown talents, and an unbreakable brotherhood. Told by team member Stephen Newman, Improbable Champions is a deeply personal, often humorous, and always heartfelt memoir of a team that defied every odd. It's a story about football, yes but also about community, loyalty, and the kind of character that lasts a lifetime. For anyone who's ever loved the game, believed in the impossible, or found greatness in unlikely places, this is your story.
