Rise of the Wahine

Champions of Title IX

This is the amazing story of the fire and perseverance that drove underdogs to birth Title IX and release untold opportunities to an entire generation. Centered around the University of Hawaii's volleyball team, these women (and men) lit a profound desire for girls to have the same opportunities as men-in education, sports, and jobs. Women's roles were about to change from 'housewife' to educated-producer. Title IX was the door to get them there.
