Jersey Day

Jersey Day isn't just about uniforms — it's about proving you belong.

At Appalachian Trail High School, the Lady Pioneers are gearing up for a new basketball season in a small town where every game matters and every secret threatens to spill. For returning junior point guard Mallory Kane, this season is her time to lead. For freshman Brynn Tate, it's a battle against nerves, mistakes, and her own self-doubt.

Jersey Day is the first story in the Lady Pioneers Basketball Series — a character-driven sports fiction series where basketball is only half the story. Friendship, rivalry, personal struggles, and unspoken pressure pulse through the locker room, the gym, and the halls.

Told one game at a time, this series dives into what happens on the court and everything that threatens to unravel it.

Because every team has drama. Every team has heart. And not every jersey gets handed out.
