Track season is finally here, and Gerald Sully Sullivan is ready to run. He has been waiting all year to hit the field, but when the first day of tryouts arrives, not a single other student shows up.
If the Titans cannot recruit more members immediately, the school will not have a track team at all. Determined to save the season, Sully takes matters into his own hands and visits the other sports teams to recruit their star players.
The problem is that none of the other athletes take track and field seriously. To change their minds and build his dream team, Sully will have to do the impossible and beat them all at their own games.

Luke knows baseball is more than home runs. He can get on base, steal at the right moment, and help his team in ways that do not always make the crowd cheer. But when his older stepbrother Jake gets all the attention as the Vikings’ power hitter and team captain, Luke starts to feel like he is playing from inside Jake’s shadow.
This fast-moving Sports Illustrated Kids graphic novel brings baseball drama onto the page with sibling rivalry, team pressure, and the challenge of proving your value without pretending to be someone else. Young readers who like sports stories will find plenty of action at the plate, but the real tension comes from Luke’s need to be seen for the player he already is.
