Stacked (2021)

Stacked (2021). Stacked: Directed by Brett Scheske. The year was 1999, and a couple of schools four hours apart were embarking on a season-long journey to become the best high school baseball team in Michigan. The Sturgis Trojans and the Pinconning Spartans were schools that were built from the ground up by communities that were unapologetically determined to do one thing – WIN. Both schools were championship caliber baseball teams that didn't know a thing about each other when they took the field at Battle Creek's Bailey Park to face-off in the 1999 MHSAA state championship. Finally, 22 years later, we have uncovered fascinating details about both teams, their run to the state finals, and the emotional thoughts and feelings behind one of the most memorable final innings in MHSAA history.

“I took my two young sons to watch this. I was a young teenager when this event occurred and remember all the town chatter from that time. Watching this with my two sons, also baseball players and athletes, and their attentiveness to the story was empowering for them. The drive these guys had together in 1999, the path they took as a team from even the young years is inspirational. Gave my sons perspective and mindset to chase with their own teammates at a young age. The film keeps your attention. Makes you laugh. Makes you feel nostalgic in oneu0026#39;s own athletic adventures. Incredibly well done job by HYPE.”
