Over the course of their winning season, these underdogs and their resilient spirit became an inspiration to their city, state, and an entire nation in need of a rebound, even catching the attention of President Franklin D. Roosevelt. The architect of their success was Rusty Russell, a legendary high school coach who shocked his colleagues by giving up a privileged position so he could teach and coach at an orphanage. Few knew Rusty's secret: that he himself was an orphan. Recognizing that his scrawny players couldn't beat the other teams with brawn, Rusty developed innovative strategies that would come to define modern football. 520 1 $a "...these two pros still react with infectious wonder as the messages they send to their students take root and then sprout."--Los Angeles Times. 650 4 $a Drama. 655 4 $a Drama. 700 1 $a Dent, Jim. 700 1 $a Duvall, Robert. 700 1 $a Sheen, Martin. 700 1 $a Shaw, Vinessa. 700 1 $a Knight, Wayne. 700 1 $a Wilson, Luke. 700 1 $a Williams, Treat. 941 $a 1 945 $a dvv 952 $l HEPB765 $d 20221012010401.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=2EA99F1649F311ED9CAF447533ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
