Wildcats
“Her dream was to coach high school football. Her nightmare was Central High.”
High school track coach Molly McGrath knows just as much about football as anyone else on the planet. When a football coach's position becomes vacant, she applies for the job, despite snickers from fellow staff members and her former husband.
