Synopsis

It's "Creed" meets "Top Gun," as high school wrestler Chris Torres pursues his dream to fly jets at the U.S. Naval Academy.

He’ll need to win a state championship, while navigating the challenges of his senior year, including his girlfriend going to West Point, a nemesis they call Kid Hulk, and Navy SEAL trainers that stand in his way.

With all the drama and action, will Chris achieve his goal of becoming a Navy fighter pilot?

Filmed on location in the Outer Banks of NC, the movie highlights the beautiful scenery and attractions of the region. The producers utilized local and regional talent for key roles, and the cast includes Terry Schappert, star of the TV Series "Hollywood Weapons, Fact or Fiction," now in its sixth year on the Outdoor Channel.

Inspired by real events, the movie provides powerful messaging, including perseverance, anti-bullying, girl-power, and teamwork. With a rocking soundtrack and authentic wrestling action, it's an inspiring movie the whole family will enjoy.
