Publisher Description: Ten years ago, a 17 year old athlete from Tri-Valley High School set out to do what many thought couldn't be done. Jay Tennessen helped lead his basketball team to the State A Tournament, despite battling cancer. Now on the 10th anniversary of his diagnosis and in one of the most talked about moments in South Dakota sports, a local author chronicles Jay's journey during the 2004-2005 basketball season on and off the court in a new book titled, 'Playing Through The Pain: The Villain Inside' Jay's pain and courage are well documented in this new book and as you'll find out; they inspired players, parents, and other cancer patients from around the country to chase their dreams, fight the fights, and stay positive no matter the odds or obstacles you're dealt in life. They say all compelling stories always have both a good guy and a villain. This book has both. Jay is the good guy. The villain lived inside of him. |
