About this ebook
How do you describe the unexpected, the inexplicable, the improbable, the impossible?
Nestled in the small town of Sewickley, Pennsylvania and surrounded by some of the most dominant high school football powerhouses in America, the Quaker Valley Quakers had never come close to winning a district or state championship in their long history.
