Jason Young grew up watching his father play basketball and hearing about his legacy. In high school, Robert Young led the Oak Lake Lions to victory in the North Carolina state championship. An injury in college kept him from playing professionally, but he never stopped loving the game.
Jason has inherited that same love-and he feels driven to succeed where his father couldn't. By the time he's a senior at Oak Lake High School, he has his entire life mapped out. He plans to win the state championships and go on to play basketball at Duke University. After that, he'll go pro and marry his high school girlfriend, Sarah. Sarah is so sure about Jason's future that she's all but planning the wedding!
On the outside, Jason looks supremely confident, but in reality he is slowly caving under the extreme pressure his father has heaped on him. Jason is expected to be the ultimate basketball star, but senior year provides several daunting tests for the seventeen-year-old. A devastating event and a surprising new passion cause him to question what he really wants from life and whose dreams he is fulfilling. Is he content to simply walk in his father's footsteps, or is there something else waiting for him after graduation?
Like the protagonist of his new young adult novel, Kosta D. Rosvoglou played basketball in high school, but he also discovered a passion for writing. He used his own experiences and struggles as inspiration for Jason Young's story in Pride.
Rosvoglou lives in Queens, New York, and just graduated from Fordham University. He hopes that his work and Jason's story will inspire others who feel or have felt lost in their lives.
