Tiki and Ronde are ready for their second year on the Eagles, and now that they are older, they might even see some playing time. That is, until Coach Spangler announces he is moving up to the high school team and a new coach is stepping in.
Tiki and Ronde were the stars of their Pee Wee football team, the Cave Springs Vikings. But middle school is much bigger than elementary school and it's a whole different game--on and off the field. When Coach Spangler takes a job coaching for the high school team and Tiki's old science teacher Mr. Wheeler is tapped for the middle school coaching job, the beginning of the school year and the football season is off to a bumpy start. But through working together, the boys discover that the whole team is bigger than any of its parts.
