BOONE, N.C., Dec. 18, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The young Badgers baseball team has the talent, but an arrogant pitcher threatens their season unless they find a way to band together, mixing their talent with friendship and fun in Donald B. Lucas\u2019 new sports novel for young adults titled \u201cDynamite on the Diamond<\/a>\u201d (published by Archway Publishing).<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

Thomas Nathan Taylor, nicknamed \u201cDyno\u201d after his initials TNT, is the star pitcher of the team, but he has a lot of issues that make him less than a perfect teammate. The story is told through the eyes of his best friend and catcher, Chip Newsome, who in the beginning is Dyno\u2019s only friend and the only person on the team that can get through to Dyno. \u201cDynamite on the Diamond\u201d stresses sportsmanship, teamwork, and fair play. It illustrates both the positive and negative scenarios that young athletes, coaches and parents are involved with today. It shows the reader that they can have fun and be successful in sports and still be a good sport and a good teammate, and that team chemistry is just as important as talent.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cSports are very important to our society. Team sports are very popular with young people and boys and girls need to learn to play these games the right way,\u201d Lucas says. \u201cI want readers to learn that sports is a great outlet for players and fans, but when they do not respect the game by being a good sport, a good teammate or a respectful fan, they have lost the true reason we play the sport.\u201d<\/p>\n
