Can these twin brothers find a way to get along with the new twins in town? Thanks to solid teamwork from fraternal twins Russ and Owen Evans, the Pioneers basketball team is tearing up the competition. But a pair of transfer students ("real" twins Mitch and Marcus Matthews) are about to give the Evans boys a run for their money. Smart, athletic, and identical, the Matthews are a basketball powerhouse, wowing the crowds while Russ and Owen are forced to fight for court time. When Marcus suffers a sidelining injury and Mitch falters during a big game without him, a sympathetic Russ decides to take a chance. After all, his Masters of the Mind team needs a new member for Regionals, and trying something new may help Marcus find his own identity. And when the Pioneers prepare to battle their biggest rival, Owen knows the guys need all the help they can get, including Mitch. But does he have enough time to turn half a double threat into a complete competitor?

Known by fans as "The Penguin" for his back-of-the-pack speed, John Bingham is the unlikely hero of the modern running boom. In his new book, the best-selling author and magazine columnist recalls his childhood dreams of athletic glory, sedentary years of unhealthy excess, and a life-changing transformation from couch potato to "adult-onset athlete." Overweight, uninspired, and saddled with a pack-and-a-half-a-day smoking habit, Bingham found himself firmly wedged into a middle-age slump. Then two frightening trips to the emergency room and a conversation with a happy piano tuner led him to discover running--and changed his life for the better. Inspiring, poignant, hilarious, and heartbreaking, An Accidental Athlete is a warm and engaging book for the everyday athlete. Bingham tells stories of the joys of running--the pride of the finisher's medal, a bureau-busting t-shirt collection, intense back-of-the-pack strategizing. An Accidental Athlete is about one man's discovery that middle age was not the finish line after all, but only the beginning.
