Warrior Pride

Life imitates game time when it comes to the basketball court and as head coach of the Michigan Warriors AAU basketball team, Dylan Baxter finds himself at a perpetual cross-roads as he strives to take his team to the national championship. The product of a single-parent household, raised in the ghetto, Dylan has dedicated his life to mentoring young men and teaching them to navigate the ups and downs of life through the game of basketball. From battling the call of the streets and dealing with apathetic parents to outsiders trying to tear his team apart, he finds himself fighting to show his players the meaning of teamwork as they battle their way to the top. Warrior Pride is a faith-based film, based on a true story, that takes an in-depth look at the behind-the-scenes process of developing athletes at the pre-college level. (Pan African Film Festival)
