Back in the 1940s and 1950s, former basketball coach Clair Bee conceived the Chip Hilton Sports Series and authored more than 20 books chronicling the fictional exploits of three-sport high school star Chip Hilton and his group of friends/teammates.
Meet Casey Carter, the 21st century reincarnation of Chip Hilton. Like Chip, Casey is a member of the varsity football, basketball and baseball teams at River View High, and in the first book of this exciting new youth sports series, the 15-year-old sophomore is in line to become the starting quarterback of the championship-contending Eagles.
However, his journey is a difficult one as a jealous and vindictive senior named Steve Northcutt, who has served as the backup quarterback the previous two years, staunchly believes he should be the starter. Northcutt plots a devious scheme to derail Casey, and the two boys engage in a season-long conflict that hinders the Eagles in their quest to win the conference title.
In this fast-moving story that is loaded with thrilling high school football action, you will meet Casey and all his buddies - Kevin McDonald, Danny Valentine, Curtis Winthrop, Kyle Kozlowski, and the brothers Matty and Eddie Harkness - as they begin their varsity sports careers.
If you are a middle or high school-aged student who loves sports, the Casey Carter Sports Series will be a must-read..
