520    "By 1977 the University of Evansville's Purple Aces 
       basketball team had won five small-college national 
       championships. With a charismatic young coach and a 
       freshman phenom, this small Indiana city hoped to see its 
       team shine in the national spotlight. Then, on a foggy 
       night, after just four games, the plane carrying the team 
       and its coach crashed after takeoff, killing everyone on 
       board. The tragedy seemed insurmountable, a devastating 
       blow to the identity of a fading factory town. But, with 
       the support of a city in mourning, ambitious new coach 
       Dick Walters promised to rebuild the cherished 
       institution. Assembling a team of castoffs, walk-ons, and 
       overachievers, Walters restored the legacy of the team and
       its fans. Against all odds, his young men made history. A 
       tribute to those who were lost, and to those who carried 
       on, We Will Rise is the rich and powerful story of an 
       underdog team and its fans and the spirit of a resilient 
       community"--Jacket.
