Prove It
About
She figured out her brain. Now she has to prove she can handle the pressure. She thought the hard part was over.
Then summer practice starts — and so does everything else.
A new player arrives out of nowhere. Riley Carter is travel-level Elite: calm, confident, and powerful enough to hit the ball out of any park without breaking a sweat. Within days, Maya finds herself bumped from her spot in the lineup, replaced by a girl who doesn't say much and doesn't have to. And the worst part? Riley isn't the villain. She's just that good.
With scouts expected at the fall showcase and Coach Ramirez running the most competitive summer rotation Maya has ever seen, nothing feels guaranteed anymore. Maya has to figure out who she is when she's not the best hitter in the box — and whether she can stop chasing her old spot long enough to become the player she's actually capable of being.
