After deciding he needs to do something meaningful with his life, high school wrestler Louden Swain sets out on a mission to drop weight and challenge the area's undefeated champion, which creates problems with his teammates and health. Matters are complicated further when Louden's father takes in an attractive female drifter who's on her way to San Francisco.

Can a single wrestling match redeem a life spent drifting through suburban aimlessness? This eighties coming-of-age tale trades polished sentimentality for the raw, sweat-soaked obsession of a teenager chasing greatness.
