"The Rundown" is a Grit original series where light is shed on local sports stories around the United States.

For some people they consider football as an after-school activity, a fun sport to play, or something to watch; however, for others it is a way of life. In this small town, football is the only thing that provides these students with a way out or a sense of meaning. Football is more than just a sport to this town.

About Grit:
Grit's mission is to inspire, inform and empower the next generation through sports culture. Sports media is filled with talking heads and scripted statements. So, we're moving beyond the scores and highlights to bring original digital stories about real people and real issues.
