When No One's Watching

Set against the back drop of an economically challenged city were opportunities are limited and hope can feel out of reach, a first-year varsity basketball coach embarks on a mission to transform a struggling girls basketball program. Through tough love, hard conversations, and unwavering belief, he challenges his players to discover that their futures can be defined not by where they come from, but by who they choose to become. When No One's watching is a powerful story about basketball, but more importantly, about hope, purpose, and what happens when someone refuses to let young people set settle for less than their potential.

THE MURMUR

An eighteen-year-old young man stands at the edge of adulthood, but his world is unraveling fast. Torn between staying close to his longtime girlfriend or chasing an ambitious college opportunity across the country, he is consumed by doubt, fear, and growing paranoia. As his relationship frays and pressure mounts from every direction, he begins to question not only his future but also his sanity. Shadows seem to follow him, whispers haunt his sleep, and the feeling that something—or someone—is watching becomes impossible to ignore. Is it stress, psychosis, or something far more sinister?

They're Coming Home

During the 2004-2005 season the Niagara Falls High School basketball team went 28-1, winning NYSPHSAA and Federation championships. This teams roster included a top 7 NBA draft pick, a Superbowl champion and multiple division 1 basketball players. Their on court efforts inspired the entire city of Niagara Falls and gave everyone something to cheer about. To honor this team we are creating a weekend of celebration that will be student-driven, aimed at cultivating our city's future leaders.
