The Mighty Macs (2011)

Poster for The Mighty Macs

She dared to dream. They dared to believe.

In the early 70s, Cathy Rush becomes the head basketball coach at a tiny, all-girls Catholic college. Though her team has no gym and no uniforms -- and the school itself is in danger of being sold -- Coach Rush looks to steer her girls to their first national championship.
