In the 1950s, legendary high school basketball coach Lofton Greene led the recently racially integrated River Rouge High School Panthers to a record number of state championships in a league of otherwise segregated schools. Now, almost 70 years later, LaMonta Stone, a former Panther himself, has returned to the struggling industrial town of River Rouge, Michigan, to help the Panthers chase the school’s 15th State Championship.

In Rouge, Stone and four of his student-athletes, including Seniors Brent Darby Jr. and Ahmoni Weston, and junior Legend Geeter strive on their quest to fulfill generations worth of work on and off the court by preparing for their next chapter of life.
