[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

there are some rare

people in this world who can make

absolutely anything

into an adventure

[Music]

if we're lucky one of those fearless

generous souls shows us how it's done

[Music]

how to live

accept sometimes it doesn't feel like

luck sometimes it feels like they were

sent from above

as a gift to the rest of us

[Music]

because when someone like that finds you

and somehow

chooses you as their friend

it makes you think that you can fly

[Music]

okay or at the very least

it helps you get through high school

which when you're 17

is kind of everything

[Music]

of course it was line who always seemed

like she was about to take flight

like she might bound out of her seat at

any moment

thank you

[Music]

thank you

[Music]

me

unless the girls come to you and want to

then it's too soon

briz you got to think about their mental

house i'm holding practice tomorrow

afternoon at 3 45

you want to shut me down you know where

i'll be

just stayed where i was

is

japanese eat like this

i like to lay it all out get a look at

the whole

lunch landscape what are you doing coach

my alarm went off this morning like it

always does 5 59

rolled right back over didn't want to

get out of bed

then i heard this annoying voice in my

head

caroline's voice

do work today son

with everything going on in her life she

played volleyball

i think we need to play volleyball now

now

why me you're a best friend

girls are looking at you to see if it's

okay to play again

please don't put this on me perez

sorry i just did

we're talking every night

so pick up your you're

promise your flight

we love you too we'll see you soon

bye dad

[Music]

hi everyone you've reached the fount

please leave a message after the beep

for ernie ellen and

liner dog oh and liner dog

hey ernie just wanted to check up on you

buddy

i know i said to take as much time as

you need but nothing

soothes the soul like medical paperwork

right

and god bless her she lived more life in

her 17 years than most do in a lifetime

what i'm trying to say is i'm here for

you buddy okay so if you need me to pick

you up some food or

you just want to talk you need some

company at church just give me a call

and i'll be there

i'm not sure church is exactly where i

want to be right now god hasn't exactly

shown up for me lately

hi everyone you've reached the fouls

please leave a message after the beat

for ernie ellen and

liner dog

17 years sweetheart you never called me

that

i'm not letting you start now sit down

make a cup of tea

did you get into that science lab you

wanted i think i remember caroline

i knew that lion had the moped and

i knew she was taking it to the hospital

if i had told you if

you're going to hear my list of ifs

if i could have gotten the stereo to

work

blind's battery wouldn't have died

and maybe she had driven her car

if i brought her to visit ellen that day

maybe she'd just gone to bed after the

party

if i hadn't taken such a hard line on

mopeds i could have at least

made sure she wore a helmet

so

there's no end to the ifs

what are we gonna do ernie

all the handouts say to channel your

anger and guilt into something

this is all i found

maybe you can find something better

the trojans football team won last night

24-17

and last night's volleyball game against

city high was another loss

due to forfeit

[Music]

morning everybody i just wanted to say

that that last announcement

well it sucked

[Music]

line would have hated it giving up a

game without a fight and a city

the thought of playing volleyball again

makes me

almost physically ill but

i'm gonna do it

i'm gonna go to practice today because

it's what lion would have wanted me to

do

and i hope the rest of the team joins me

today too because the thing is

i don't want lion to ever hear again

that we lost the game for not showing up

well physically they're all here

mentally i'd say they're 10

certainly don't think they're ready for

a game on saturday

all right everybody huddle up let's go

let's go

huddle up

[Applause]

i know being here is tough but believe

me you're going to be glad you have

something else to focus on

we're all hurting but here you can take

that hurt and apply it to the game you

love to play

what do you say no time like right now

here we go okay guys defensive box drill

let's go

can't do the drill without a setter

coach okay new plan

pepper drill 20 consecutive hits here we

[Applause]

go

nice let's hear you count it

is anybody gonna get that

i don't know if we can do this coach

just being here

that's enough you all know

caroline found never cried on this court

and neither will any of you

anybody's upset they need to cry they

can do it outside the lines

we'll get there

one two three

are you going to practice tomorrow i

don't even know if there's going to be

one

breath thinks that people are looking to

me

to keep the team going well what do you

think

i think that line could do it if it was

her but

i'm not as strong as her lying brought

out your inner strength

she really did but remember

you can't bring out something that isn't

already there

the last thing that lyon said to me was

that this was going to be

our year she was going to play hard

and she was going to dedicate every

single game to her mom

and i know that our odds aren't good

without liner but

even if we could win just one game

shouldn't we try

does that sound good to you guys we can

talk all day about what we want but the

only way to make that happen is to bust

our butts in here

first thing we got to do is find us a

new setter

usually takes three to five years to

groom a new setter we don't have that

kind of time now do we

no go all right let's work

scotty they're all yours okay line up

setting is about precision doesn't

matter how good your hitters are unless

the setter can get them the ball

exactly where they need it nice

so losing every game of the season is

that uh you're bad for an assistant

coach's career

all right mac you're up

nice job bree you're up

she's not even looking it doesn't have

to

she can hear it the less sound you make

the better your hands are

nice job bree come on callie step in

you got this

[Music]

you're going to touch the ball every

play control who gets it

when where how

you got to feel out your hitters who's

hot who's cold

tell him talk to him lead

offense defense everything on that court

runs through you

all right compared to what these

are all the plays center has to know

i know our plays you guys oh you know

the plays that you ran and from the

receiving side now you need to know

which place needs to be set higher

faster or with softer hands

good luck

see focus is the hardest part for me i

go to class but it's like

all i hear is that charlie brown teacher

going

[Laughter]

you know if it helps i'm actually a

pretty good charlie brown teacher

translator

but what you just said so you know was

the gettysburg address

uh i just

i never thought that my senior year

would be like this you know

yeah you know i only

met her once but she seemed like a great

person

line was the best the best

i really want to win this first game

back for her

win or lose you're making her proud i

know it

the women of troy volleyball team head

to cedar rapids today for their first

game since losing their star player

caroline

found we at wkcr and everyone in iowa

city wish them the best of luck

[Applause]

um

[Music]

[Music]

foreign

[Music]

captains seniors you're our captains

let's go

ladies heads or tails heads

tails would you like side serve or

receive

surf it's all right ladies here we go

bring it in everybody everybody bring it

in

i want you to focus on playing

volleyball

nothing else just volleyball you got it

got it okay does he be

okay west on

nine for line one two three four five

six seven eight nine

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

okay it's okay you got this kelly this

is what you do

good d good deeds

[Applause]

and montgomery with a solid side out to

put the rams up by two

yes

oh my looks like some miscommunication

the girls need to get this together this

game is slipping away from them

fleeler seems to be having a tough time

today finding her teammates for solid

sets

pulling apart up there we don't have

anybody else

get your feet there kelly get your feet

[Applause]

[Music]

there

[Applause]

[Music]

and that's the game ladies and gentlemen

i went from montgomery in three straight

sets

and a heartbreaker for the woman of troy

who just couldn't get much going today

without their star

caroline found

it's just frustrating okay we're being

set up to fail literally give her a

break okay it's not like she wants to be

awful

yeah but we're the ones who look bad she

says it's like four feet beyond the

antennae it's like if we can't save it

it looks like it's our fault

and not to be mean but why is kelly one

of our co-captains

if not for line i don't think she'd even

be a starter yeah probably not

so what you want to tell her she's not

good enough to stand up there with the

rest of us it just

sucks that's all

it's not how to underline i know back

ernie progress hello

and how wonderful to see you hello

that looks good you bought it at target

yeah thanks hmm more champagne

oh don't ask i'll just take it

the hardest part for me

is getting used to the quiet

liner was a sworn enemy of pauses in

conversation

you're not kidding she was uh fearless

wasn't she

and everything she did just

dove right in head first

took it on

without thinking

homecoming games coming up soon ernie i

think it would mean a lot to the girls

if you were there

if you can handle it not to say there's

anything wrong

if you can't okay i know what you mean

okay

it's good to see it ernie how's the team

looking

the truth please i ate last year

how many games you got left 15.

how many wins do you have to have to

qualify for stay 15.

what do you think my daughter would say

to us if she was sitting at this table

only 15.

hmm

nice

pretty intense practice schedule

okay good talk bring it in

you are defending state champions

every team out there is hungry to eat

you alive

do you think when we travel to cedar

falls that they're going to take it easy

on you because they see how upset you

are

no coach

mack served as zone one and practice is

over

if you miss we run ladders

let's go jump serve really

you lead our team in ace serves you

should be able to do this blindfolded

okay line up

don't be last

brie zone one or two ladders

server needs to be able to put the ball

on the court exactly where the coach

tells him to

lizzie b served the ball to zone one or

five ladders

you think this is pressure how are you

gonna win our next game if you can't

even handle practice

serve the ball to zone one and we're

done

if you miss 15 ladders for everyone

understood

[Music]

okay

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

high into the outside good number 31

low set to middle blocker perfect

now let's uh let's test those reflexes

come on

you're so weird this is an important

part of your training

okay gotta get back to work

volleyball all right

ready the trick is

to keep it close to the embers and not

the flames

that way it doesn't catch fire

i have to tell you something

i didn't want it and if you want me to

step down i will

but res made me setter

and you're doing a fine job of it

when i didn't see you at the games i

thought that you were

maybe mad that i'm like i don't know

taking her spot you didn't take her spot

you couldn't do that

you took a position and you're making it

your own

and i'm right behind you 100

and i may be the surgeon but you're the

healer out there

[Music]

[Music]

why am i more nervous for this than the

first game we played

because winning homecoming is a matter

of school honor it's just another game

with fanfare and huge visibility in

every boy you ever wanted to state

watching it's still a game ladies we're

gonna show up and play let's go

gametime ladies and

here they come you're

reigning champions the women of

troy

[Applause]

number 18 lizzie ackerman

number 19 kelly fleeler

number 11 mackenzie davidson

number eight free tipton

number four jessica bailey

number 14 taylor mitchell

number one rebecca mastery

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

we are one ball away let's run a2

their defense is weak on that flight one

ball away

west on ninth one two three four five

six seven eight

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

taylor you gotta see that

that's right you pass okay we got this

next one come on

let's go hey it's all right it was my

fault where was it

okay you gotta hit a rabbit next time

okay

one side out ladies this ends now

one last play you guys

[Applause]

[Applause]

[Music]

season schedule good morning to you too

i'll wait while you get it

okay got it tell me what you see oh i

know there's typos but it's not like

we're the english department

what's the caliber of the next team

we're facing on the weaker side

and the next one and the one after that

week

[Applause]

i like where you're going with this

[Music]

our next five games are against the

weakest teams in the division

long as we keep our emotions in check

we'll take them out without much trouble

and with momentum and that confidence

the next

half dozen wins are very doable too

which means if we run the board

we got a shot at state

you mean to win

i mean to win we could win

for a line for caroline

yeah but wait how many is the board 14.

you serious

yep i'm serious

[Music]

so hey i was thinking since you pick who

gets each ball

if it's a clutch play maybe go to

someone else usually hitters ask for

more plays

that's how you get better i know

it's cause i don't want to be the reason

that we don't win for a line

don't let it be me okay

[Applause]

[Applause]

this is

[Applause]

okay

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

what are you kidding me are you blind

oh come on it was right here it was

right here okay okay

maybe you should sit down before you go

okay oh my god we're good

we're good we're good ref we're good god

i hope it's not him in the finals

[Applause]

[Applause]

[Music]

[Applause]

and then the improbable happened the

women of west

started winning games one after another

and if they win here tonight

they'll be headed back to state next

week as quarter finalists

and a chance to honor their lost captain

caroline

it's a strong team out there but they

are not as strong as you

we keep our heads in the game and we can

win this

pro line west stone two one two

[Applause]

west is two points away from victory as

kelly fleeler heads back to serve

[Music]

but it was our point next

to the end of the time yes coach

west is in control of this game and if

they win this set

they win the match

[Applause]

[Applause]

[Applause]

still has match points

[Applause]

can't perform the mckenzie while they're

doubling up potter joe look at me the

blocker on my side's like seven feet

tall go to taylor they're not looking at

it yeah i think i got this one element

is rising we can't lose momentum kell

not one more one ball from state okay go

again i'll push it further out okay

okay come on guys we got mine white oak

is just one point away from tying it up

west needs this point to win way harder

from white oak

[Applause]

unbelievable a 15-game win streak

let's hear it for your west high

trojans

so i was thinking about last season

so weird foreign i mean remember when

playing used to be fun

take some names

this home stretch

long

overdue thanks

did

with ellen

caroline

i know

i'm blessed to you

i can't blame him for wanting her back

she's a keeper

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

so

[Music]

this is a team that was absolutely

demolished by montgomery earlier this

season but they're playing like a whole

new squad right now

look at the ball

one more push one down

one more to semis i got this guys okay i

got it go kill it

[Music]

senior center kelly fleeler is back to

serve for game

[Music]

[Music]

[Applause]

and west high dominates this

quarterfinal match to advance to the

semis

and what a game we've got here both

teams battling for a spot in the state

finals both are within easy reach of the

magic 15 points to win here in game five

one good pass ladies one good pass

[Applause]

and west is one point away from the

state finals

[Applause]

[Music]

who would have thought that this team

would be back in the state championship

after the roller coaster ride that

they've been through this season

now a tough match against city high is

ahead but west high has an

awful lot to celebrate tonight

[Music]

hey ernie it's me kelly i'm just

really missing line today and i thought

i might visit the barn hideout tonight

let me know if that's okay

[Music]

what do you think just this one

[Music]

the barn is always where i went with

caroline when i needed everything to be

okay

[Music]

and right then everything wasn't

the closer we got to state the more

scared i was that

we'd come up short that i'd come up

short

winning for line was everything so

losing for line

was unthinkable

[Music]

not win for line not do it for line

but live like line

[Music]

[Music]

so

hey hey uh i'm sorry

for being totally m.i.a lately but

there's something pretty

important that i have to do right now

and i was on my way there

and then somehow i was on my way here

and it's because i realized

i wanted you there too

i mean if you're not doing anything

right now

uh well i was pretty busy sleeping but

uh

right yeah of course i'm sorry i'm sorry

i don't

uh i don't even i don't know what i'm

doing here okay

stupid

[Music]

follow

[Music]

what i like seeing you lead

team's lucky to have you

[Music]

you got a plan yeah you go up i hand you

stuff i like that plan

[Music]

ever since

[Music]

what is that did you make that

nope

hey ernie's having a party at this place

tonight yeah i know

guys are invited you know in a good way

[Music]

ernie we're not champions yet

sure you are that's what this is about

tonight

you are champions to me i'm proud of you

guys

well we finished the story the story

right okay so i

went to pick up the pizza and

the pizza man behind the counter he

looks at this shirt he says what's that

shirt what does that mean

and um i said to him how much time have

you got

and i told him that i married a woman

who she knew how to love

and she could see

the good in in anyone in

anything she ever met and

she gave that to our daughter and

caroline knew how to

live maybe a little too much sometimes

listen you guys what you've done you

brought this town together it's amazing

caroline would be so proud to be here

with you

and win or lose

it doesn't matter

too caroline yeah you're here

oh to sweet caroline

where it began can't begin to know

it but then i know it's growing strong

sweet caroline

[Music]

good times

is

i know

i'm sorry

for putting so much pressure on you guys

i don't know how you managed carrying

all that weight

how you managed to not just

play but do it with

grace

i i told you to win for a line

as if that would somehow make sense of

why she died

or how much

all of us hurt

but now i think that we should

if we want to show how much we miss her

we should

just play with joy

so can we just

do that

[Music]

[Music]

[Music]

point

connection

which isn't surprising because caroline

reached out to everyone

strangers opponents

teachers even lowly coach

to line they all meant the same thing

honor number nine not by having a moment

of silence but

by asking you to do the same reach out
