Summary

A triumphant tale of a high school basketball teams' long-shot attempt to ascend to the State Championship. Norman Dale is a basketball coach whose checkered past has led him to a last-chance position with a last-chance team. Made to feel unwelcome by squad members, an icy fellow teacher and townspeople who nearly have him fired, Dale perseveres with a gritty demeanor and an unwavering passion for the game. But winning over the team is only half the battle in a world where small-town teams can end up playing big-time rivals... and a downtrodden outsider can rouse the pride of an entire county
