The 5th Quarter
The death of a promising young athlete just days before his 16th birthday inspires his older brother to lead his college football team to new heights. When 15-year-old Luke Abbate is killed in a tragic car accident, the loss leaves his close-knit family reeling with grief. Fueled by faith and their deep familial bond, the Abbates try to rebuild their lives without Luke, fulfilling his wish to help others by donating his organs to save the lives of five other people. But despite the support of loving friends and family, his death leaves a void in their lives that threatens to tear the family apart. Struggling with the devastating loss, Luke's older brother Jon, a gifted football player at Wake Forest University, decides to honor his brother's memory and love for the game by dedicating the 2006 season to him. With the added motivation of "playing for two," he dons Luke's beloved No. 5 jersey and inspires his teammates to play the best football of their lives - and become the most improved team in America. Predicted to finish last in their division, the Wake Forest football team surpassed all expectations by winning an unforgettable championship season.
