Non-Fiction Sports

In Senior Year, Dan Shaughnessy focuses his acclaimed sports writing talents on his son’s senior year of high school, a turning point in any young life and certainly in the relationship between father and son. Using that experience, Shaughnessy circles back to his own boyhood and calls upon the many sports greats he’s known over the years—Ted Williams, Roger Clemens, Larry Bird—to capture that uniquely American rite of passage that is sports. Sam Shaughnessy was born a natural hitter and quickly ascended the ranks of youth sports. Now nicknamed the 3-2 Kid for his astonishing ability to hover between success and failure in everything he does, Sam is finally a senior, and it’s all on the line: what college to attend; how to keep his grades up and his head down until graduation; and whether or not his final high school baseball season, will end in disappointment or triumph.
