Freshman Season
About
Fourteen-year-old Maya “Mayday” Rodriguez lives for the moment the bat meets the ball. But when Maya is diagnosed with ADD, the game she loves suddenly feels harder. Her brain runs a thousand thoughts mid-swing, mistakes replay on a loop, and the pressure to prove herself starts building fast. Especially when her best friend Kendall—the team’s disciplined, consistent center fielder—starts pulling ahead in the race to be the best hitter.Between parent comparisons, team drama, and high-pressure games, Maya must learn something no one ever taught her:
Talent wins innings.
But focus wins seasons.
With the help of her quiet neighbor Ethan, a team full of chaotic teammates, and a new “reset” strategy, Maya begins discovering that being a great player isn’t about shutting her brain off…It’s about learning how to play with it.
