Descrição do livro

More than forty years after the Malden Green Wave won the 1985 Missouri Class 3A Boys State Championship, Currie W. Downs looks back at the road that carried him to that championship floor.

He did not begin as a star. He was a quiet seventh-grade boy who entered games only after the outcome had already been decided. When he wanted to quit basketball, two friends convinced him to keep playing. Then a coach placed a basketball in his hands for the summer, and everything began to change.

What followed were nights practicing alone at the park, painful losses, demanding practices, unforgettable teammates, dance battles with the Fresh Crew, long bus rides, a surprising McDonald’s order, a threatened boombox, and more mosquitoes than any young basketball player should have faced.

How I Got There is not a complete history of Malden’s championship season. Records can provide the scores and statistics. This memoir tells what Currie remembers, what he experienced, and what it felt like to travel that road as one of the boys wearing a Malden uniform.

He never claimed to have made the winning shot or played the biggest role.

But he was there.

He was part of that team.

And this is how he got there.
