Description

Tom Parsons is the kind of college junior who finds poetry in a moonlit campus and a fierce drive on the athletic field. When his friends mock his lofty musings, he channels that irritation into a determination to prove himself at Randall College’s formidable sports program. Early on, a daring ride and a spirited debate among his classmates set the stage for a season of rivalry, camaraderie, and the quest for personal honor.

As try‑outs loom, Tom navigates the teasing of his fellow students, the pressure of new teammates, and the lingering mystery of a missing photograph that could jeopardize his reputation. The narrative weaves lighthearted banter with the gritty realities of training, illustrating how loyalty and perseverance are tested in the heat of competition. Listeners will be drawn into the vibrant world of early‑20th‑century college athletics, where every hurdle—both literal and figurative—offers a chance to defend one’s name.
