In this episode, the Monacan Men's Basketball staff is featured on the show,  and they discuss the success and trials they experienced with their team, along with winning a state championship. 

They talk about the influence of various basketball coaches on their journey, and how they all meshed their styles together to create their own system. They also discussed how Allen Iverson's team in 94 was nearly beaten by Hopewell--and how they were the first Chesterfield County School to win a state championship since then.
