No one tries harder than Paul …but is that enough?
Paul Marlette is a special needs kid — a little slow to learn, but always eager to try. His brother, Glenn, is determined
to teach him to play basketball well enough to become part of the Sabers team. Under Glenn’s patient guidance, Paul improves.
But there’s sti11 a lot to overcome: Paul’s difficulty grasping the rules of the game, coach Munson’s desire to have a powerhouse
team, and the other Sabers who aren’t sure they want Paul on the team. Can Paul and Glenn succeed in the end?
