Send this review to a friend Read previous BookPage interviews Pat Conroy turns a wistful eye on a losing season INTERVIEW BY JAY LEE MACDONALD To the winners go the sports biographies; to the losers go the deathly quiet locker rooms, the self-flagellation, the proverbial kiss from your sister. As a result, we know a whole lot more about the thrill of victory than the agony of defeat. Pat Conroy didn't set out to rectify that inequity by writing My Losing Season , a painfully detailed memoir of his senior year on the 1966-67 Citadel Bulldogs basketball squad that soldiered through an ignominious 8-17 season. Call it a requiem for all the runners-up who, like Conroy, turned defeat on the playing field into victory in other aspects of their lives. As a fast, street-hardened 5-foot-10 point guard, Conroy was a fiery competitor who always believed he could play above his physical limitations and frequently did. Like his teammates, Conroy didn't lose well. Unlike the others, however, he found a way to learn something from each defeat that would make him a better ballplayer. His steely resolve in the face of such a spirit-crushing season ultimately gave him the self-confidence to become one of America's best-loved writers. If losing builds character, Pat Conroy is your poster boy for also-rans.

Pat Conroy: winner in a losing season
By ELIZABETH BENNETT
MY LOSING SEASON.
By Pat Conroy.
Nan A. Talese/Doubleday, $27.95; 402 pp. HOW can you not love a book with a line like this: "I strutted, I roostered all over that court, cocky and in charge, knowing what to do and when to do it, posturing and urging my teammates to be more than themselves, to turn themselves into heroes for a night." That's Pat Conroy, best-selling author of The Great Santini and The Prince of Tides , writing about playing basketball his senior year at the Citadel, the historical military college in Charleston, S.C. At 5 feet 10, Conroy was, in his own words, "mediocre, a benchwarmer, a loser never a natural athlete, imprisoned in a body that had little business on a basketball court." But on that magic night back in the late 1960s he was hot, and so was his team, and they went on to a glorious win against the heavily favored Keydets of Virginia Military Academy. There were precious few magic nights for Conroy's Bulldogs during that 1966-67 season, however. Of the 24 games they played, they won only seven, as Conroy recounts in

Chapter One
Before First Practice It was on the morning of October 15, 1966, that the final season officially began. For a month and a half, my teammates and I had gathered in the field house to lift weights, do isometric exercises, and scrimmage with each other. Right off, I could tell our sophomores were special and were going to make our team faster, scrappier, and better than the year before. In the heat of September, there was a swiftness and feistiness to the flow of these pickup games that was missing in last year's club. My optimism about the coming season lifted perceptibly as I observed my team beat up on each other in the vagrancy of our uncoached and unmonitored scrimmages. I could feel the adrenaline rush of excitement begin as I donned my cadet uniform in the dark, and it stayed with me as I marched to mess with R Company. I could barely concentrate on the professors' voices in my classes in Coward Hall as I faced the reality of the new season and stared at the clock with impatience. It was my fourth year at The Citadel and the fourth time October 15 had marked the beginning of basketball practice. Mel Thompson was famous for working his team hard on the first day and traditionally ran us so much that the first practice was topped off by one of us vomiting on the hardwood floor.

Colonel Don Conroy's Eulogy
by his son, Pat Conroy
The children of fighter pilots tell different stories than other kids do. None of our fathers can write a will or sell a life insurance policy or fill out a prescription or administer a flu shot or explain what a poet meant. We tell of fathers who land on aircraft carriers at pitch-black night with the wind howling out of the China Sea. Our fathers wiped out aircraft batteries in the Philippines and set Japanese soldiers on fire when they made the mistake of trying to overwhelm our troops on the ground. Your Dads ran the barber shops and worked at the post office and delivered the packages on time and sold the cars, while our Dads were blowing up fuel depots near Seoul, were providing extraordinarily courageous close air support to the beleaguered Marines at the Chosin Reservoir, and who once turned the Naktong River red with blood of a retreating North Korean battalion. We tell of men who made widows of the wives of our nations' enemies and who made orphans out of all their children.

The Prince of Tides Review Summary Lila Wingo is the beautiful, proud matriarch. Abused by her husband,she is the sweet and steely woman with social aspirations so great she is willing to sell her kids down the river to achieve them
Henry Wingo was the cruel patriarch in the family. Shrimper, schemer, and loser, he is a man who will beat his sons to teach them not to cry. Later, he strives to make peace with his family.
Luke was the older son in the book. He was a Vietnam veteran, a strong man of burning convictions who races toward a shocking fate while trying to save an entire town.
Savannah is the famous, gifted and troubled poet. The cadenced beauty of her art and the cries of her illness are clues to the secret she holds in her heart. She has locked away the bitter truths of her wounded family.
Tom is Savannah's twin brother, and the narrator of the story. He is an unemployed teacher/ and football coach with a loving wife who loves someone else. With his troubled sister and a perceptive psychiatrist, he is forced to look backward to unravel a history of violence, abandonment, commitment and love.

  • "My Losing Season" by Pat Conroy In the best basketball book to come out in years, the author of "The Great Santini" sings the praises of losing, losing and losing again By Allen Barra "The smaller the ball," George Plimpton once wrote, "the better the book, which is why no one has ever written a good book about beach ball." Publishers everywhere might want to start scouting for that great American beach ball book, because with "My Losing Season" Pat Conroy has just upped the ante by writing the best basketball book in years, the basketball equivalent of Jim Bouton's "Ball Four" and Pat Jordan's "A False Spring" rolled into one. I don't know why more writers haven't been able to use basketball as a theme; my guess is that it has something to do with finding a prose style that reflects and translates the rhythm of the game itself. John Updike partially succeeded in fictional form with his Rabbit Angstrom novels, but only in brief snatches of recollection when Rabbit's playing days were through. Last year, John Edgar Wideman gave it a shot with "Hoop Roots," a nonfiction attempt to use basketball to knit together the lives of the author and his family with mystic threads of sports and memory.

    Pat Conroy is well known for using some bitter personal experiences as the basis for his work, which explores the jarring tensions, ironies, and humor of love-hate relationships in the contemporary South. Conroy's newest book, My Losing Season (October 2002), is a nonfiction account of Conroy's senior year on the basketball team at the Citadel, the South's famous bastion of military tradition. "There was a time in my life," Conroy writes at the beginning of the book, "when I walked through the world known to myself and others as an athlete. . .athletics provided the single outlet for a repressed and preternaturally shy boy to express himself in public." The Great Santini (1976), Conroy also continues to explore his relationship with his abusive father. The new book contains new revelations about their father-son relationship. Conroy completed My Losing Season just before his father's death from cancer and read it to him at his bedside. "My father said, 'I should have beaten you more, son'" Conroy relates, "I said, 'Dad, if you had beaten me much more, I'd be Shakespeare.'"
