His friend and team captain, Wade, is sure it's destined to be "their season" and has plans of winning a scholarship to college.

However, when he begins hazing the new freshmen on the team cluding Griffin's cousin Carson iffin knows he must step in. After steroids are discovered planted in Carson's locker, Griffin is sure Wade is behind it. Determined to expose Wade's bullying and underhandedness, Griffin and Carson find out much more about their captain than they bargained for.
