WHAT: THE MIGHTY MACS—a G-rated, inspiring
story of finding the courage to chase your
dreams—debuts on DVD Feb. 21. Called “the best inspirational
sports film of the
year,” THE MIGHTY MACS is based on the true story of Hall of
Fame coach Cathy
Rush (CARLA GUGINO), and charts the rise of a team of small
college, over-achieving
young women as they claim the first U.S. women’s collegiate
basketball crown. In its
theatrical premiere THE MIGHTY MACS opened as the
highest-grossing independent film
in the country and the No. 1 film in theaters for the entire
family.

SYNOPSIS Based on a true story, THE MIGHTY MACS
was inspired by Hall of Fame Coach
Cathy Rush—a woman ahead of her time—who took a seemingly
unnoticeable
position as the head basketball coach at tiny Immaculata, an
all-girls Catholic college
in suburban Philadelphia. Courage and determination helped her
overcome a myriad of
obstacles and in the end lead a ragtag group of girls to the
first-ever national
championship in women’s college basketball.
