A Vermont Basketball Story
Expectations are high for the Castle College basketball team in Castleport, Vermont. They have an All-American player and a balanced team, but unforeseen events deter them from success. Their All-American player mysteriously disappears from the deciding game of a tournament. Another player is attacked and yet another is the victim of a tragic accident. All of these events occur before important games. Is it just coincidence, or is it something more? It is a story of how a team draws strength from misfortune and overcomes adversity by blending together into a cohesive unit. Paul Fiore must navigate his college experience by balancing his studies, his love life, and being a team leader on the basketball court. Coach George Calzoni must guide his team through a maze of misfortune urging his players to work together as a team in their quest for the common good, winning. Hayes Aldridge, the All-American, must learn to sacrifice his ego for the esprit de corps of the team. “A Vermont Basketball Story” is a roller coaster ride that will have you on the edge of your seat as it steamrolls to an exciting conclusion.

Not quite the heroes of the Battle of the Bulge and not yet the dispirited generation of Vietnam, the men of Company C, 25th Signal Battalion string cable across western Germanyas they imbibe the local refreshments, spar with one another and sundry, and make the acquaintance of representatives of the gentler sex. While the Berlin Wall is raised and World War III is narrowly averted with the Soviet Union over Cuba, the innocents abroad wend their way from adolescence to young maturity, maybe no wiser for their experiences but undeniably riper.
