A soccer goalie knows something the rest of us sometimes forget: you can prepare, you can work, you can trust your teammates—and sometimes the ball still gets past you.

ROOK is a daily original college newspaper comic about friendship, faith, growing up, and the odd little moments that make college life meaningful. Set in and around Benedictine College and Atchison, ROOK follows a recurring cast through classes, sports, friendships, faith, traditions, coffee, and the everyday absurdities of college life.
A new ROOK strip appears every day at noon CST.
