The Colonial Cup #994147

Back Cover Text
Between Long Island and the sunstruck backroads of Maryland, this warm, spirited coming-of-age story follows gifted young lacrosse players, wounded mentors, and a ragtag circle of families, rivals, and small-town eccentrics whose lives converge on dusty summer fields. Peter, funny and fragile beneath his brightness, struggles to find his footing amid family upheaval and the ache of growing up, while dazzling, driven Carson chases glory with reckless hunger. Around them, friendship, grief, first love, and second chances gather force as an overlooked team begins an unlikely rise. With humor, heart, and homespun wisdom, the novel becomes a portrait of ambition, belonging, and community.
