Based on a true story. As a young man, Trent Cornelius played at University of Washington on a scholarship. In his first year, he got injured. His coach tried to force him to quit so that the university could recuperate his scholarship and give it to someone else. Trent didn't quit, but he never really played again. His dream died. Trent later went on to become a teacher and a coach. He realized along the way that your failures don't define who you are. Your failures only define your greatest achievements if you keep pushing. For Trent, his son is his greatest achievement. He knows that he must be strong to show his son and his students that the world is filled with possibilities.
