Periodically, a college produces an athletic team that surpasses all expectations and statistical standards to date. The entire college community becomes mesmerized by the team and attendance soars. Against All Odds is the story about how this happened at Roberts Wesleyan College in the years 1965-67 when the Men's Basketball team won thirty-eight of forty-four games, set several school records, including sixteen wins in a row, and played in front of a full house at all home games.

The story is told through the eyes of Dave Scribner, a point guard who never played high school ball. Dave developed a tenacity that not only enabled him to make the team but also win a key spot in the rotation. Dave takes the reader behind the scenes to feel what it was like to be in the grueling practices of Coach Hughes and experience what it was like to play in the famous Buffalo State game where five hundred fans were locked out of the game because of fire marshal rules. So come along and enjoy this excursion to the pinnacle of small college basketball and learn what qualities made this team simply the best. As a bonus, you will learn how this experience affected the players' lives fifty years later.
