With college basketball ending a few weeks ago and the NBA beginning their playoffs, we felt that some of you basketball lovers out there were looking for a good read to go along with all the recent basketball action. If interested, check out Play Their Hearts Out by George Dohrmann. The book follows an AAU coach and his team throughout their careers, and most of the players are now playing college ball around the country. It's a solid read and very well written, as Dohrmann has quite a list of accomplishments under his belt, including a Pulitzer Prize for his work with the St. Paul Pioneer Press.
Nonetheless, check the book out, its a solid read for any sports fan and a great one for a basketball fan, especially if you liked Hoop Dreams. Also, you can check out Dohrmann's website, http://georgedohrmann.com/home, on which he updates information about the players followed in the book (we recommend that you read the book first before going to his website, the end of the book lists where all of the players are attending and it's an added level of suspense throughout the book).
