Juice

by Eric Waters

Moose has been made captain of his high school football team. When the old football coach retires, the new coach in town brings in a lot of money and promises of a fantastical winning season. During practice, the strength training coach starts giving the players protein shakes. A little too late Moose discovers that the drinks contain steroids. Now he has to make the biggest choice of his life. The author does a good job of keeping the story interesting and realistically describing the drastic way steroids effect the football players lives.
