West Virginia " The Mountain State" because of the Appalachian Mountains. It was the only state formed during the Civil War. It's also home to the first organized golf club in America.
"We Are Marshall" is about a school, town and state that suffered a horrific disaster that killed most of the football team and many prominent citizens. I touch people all across the country. It's about Marshall University's President and a football coach, who's hope was to restore the program and community. It's a true story filled with sadness and humor that must have helped in healing. They did move on, but they've remembered the event, day and time every year since. No matter if you're a sports fan or not, the spirit required to overcome this test is truly amazing. Karrie must have been cuttin' onions again during this one.
