Moody Library and Student Athletes: Soccer

Soccer, Offense, and Training.

A cute memoir profiling the author's experience coaching a women's soccer team at Geneva College. Hanna, an English teacher and comic writer, spices the chronicle with literary references but doesn't become carried away with metaphor in relating the adventures of the team on and off the field. Between games, Hanna also comments on some of the more salient issues facing college athletes in regards to scholarship, winning and losing, and gender equity. Lacks a bibliography and index. Includes photographs of the team. Annotation copyrighted by Book News, Inc., Portland, OR
