Summary:
"Nova Scotia's 71st
high
school
football
season centres around the nationally recruited Shaun Robinson, a defensive end for the
Citadel
Phoenix, a team vying for their sixth straight championship. But the 2013 season is a vulnerable one for
Citadel
. Their lack of offensive firepower forces them to rely on their stout defense, anchored by Robinson - a player everyone in the league is trying to stop. At
Citadel
's helm is Coach Mike Tanner, the most successful
high
school
football
coach in Canada, and winner of 21 provincial championships. As the 2013 season begins, two of
Citadel
's rivals are trying to position themselves to knock off the champs. The C.P. Allen Cheetahs of Bedford have never beaten a Tanner team in their fifteen years. When the two teams meet under the Thursday night lights of the Cheetahs' new field, all of Bedford comes out to watch a possible shift in the city'
s
football
power. The other challengers are the Sir. John A. Flames, whose founding coach, Al Wetmore, is a Tanner prodigy and former CFL
football
player. Salt of the Turf chronicles the
Citadel
Phoenix during their 2013 season, highlighting the inspirational journey of its best player, and periodically looking back at the memorable legacy of a remarkable coach. Michael Cosgrove is a former
football
player and
high
school
head coach. He lives in Dartmouth where he teaches at a local
high
school
