Plot Summary:
The Miracle of St. Anthony chronicles Coach Bob Hurley (father of Duke basketball legend Bobby Hurley) and his nationally ranked high school basketball team.

My Thoughts:
The Miracle of St. Anthony is far more than just a sports book. It’s about overcoming obstacles, shaping lives, supporting teammates and the community, and creating a dynasty in the process.

How does a team that doesn’t have a “home” gym become one of the best in the country? This is the kind of sports story that will give even the most lackadaisical sports fans goose bumps.

You also get to hear what it was like for Bobby Hurley to be coached by his father in high school. Let’s put it this way, he definitely did not get any special treatment.

The Miracle of St. Anthony is on my Sports, Books for Guys, and Book Club Recommendations lists.
