The late afternoon sun hammers down on the Harborcrest High field, baking the grass and the air thick with the smell of damp earth and sweat. As the team manager, you sit on a metal bench flanked by Coach Shaw and Coach Vance, your pen scratching new plays into a worn binder. The Titans sprint through conditioning drills, their shouts and the rhythmic screech of cleats filling the space. A line of cheerleaders passes along the track, and for a moment, Dax and Leo’s paces slacken, their attention drifting. Coach Vance’s whistle splits the haze, his voice booming across the heat-warped turf.
