Film Overview

Narrated by Alex Morgan, the story of a college basketball program that faces cancellation when there aren’t any actual basketball players to field a team. The athletic director finds an unlikely savior: the women’s soccer team. Despite not knowing the rules of dribbling, the group of friends unites to learn a few fundamentals before losing their first game 105-12. During a string of triple-digit blowouts the positive-minded players never despair but instead grow closer, and in their final game band together to keep the best team in the league under 100 points. The program is saved and back on the field the soccer team rises to its highest ever national ranking.
