Breaking the Press is a 2010 sports drama film that tells the story of a high school basketball team in Texas struggling to overcome the death of their star player and win the state championship. The film opens with the tragic death of the team's star player, who was killed in a car accident on his way home from a game. The team is devastated by the loss, and their coach, John Handon (Drew Waters), is struggling to keep them focused on basketball. The team starts to spiral out of control, losing game after game and losing hope for the season.

In an effort to turn things around, Handon brings in a new player, Chris Mitchell (Tom Maden), a highly skilled athlete who is new to the school. At first, the team is skeptical of Chris, and he struggles to fit in with the other players. But as they start to see what he can do on the court, they start to come around.

Things start to look up for the team, but they soon face another challenge. Handon's daughter, Heather (Farah White), is diagnosed with cancer, and the coach is forced to take time off from the team to care for her. With their leader gone, the team is left to fend for themselves. They must learn to work together and rely on each other if they want to have any chance of winning the state championship.

Over the course of the film, the team faces a number of challenges, including injuries, personal conflicts, and rival teams. But they continue to push forward, fueled by their love of the game and their desire to honor their fallen teammate. As the season comes to a close, the team finds themselves in the state championship game, with everything on the line.

Overall, Breaking the Press is a heartwarming sports drama that explores the themes of loss, resilience, and teamwork. The film features strong performances from the cast, particularly Drew Waters as the dedicated coach struggling to hold his team together. The basketball scenes are well-choreographed and exciting, and the film's emotional moments are well-earned. Breaking the Press is a must-see for sports fans and anyone who appreciates a good underdog story.

Breaking the Press is a 2010 drama with a runtime of 1 hour and 35 minutes. It has received mostly poor reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 4.7.
