As close as you can get...
Stand Up is a high-stakes wrestling documentary that champions family, brotherhood, and perseverance against greater odds.
The CD East Wrestling team hasn’t had a state qualifier in 5 years. However, 2014 may break that streak. Two seniors, Cevon and Joe, best friends and rivals, have one last shot to rise to the expectations of their team by wrestling to the PIAA State Tournament. Their greatest opponents are themselves as they struggle through the hardest wrestling state tournaments in the nation, and to find a meaning in their hardships.
Stand Up is a one of a kind wrestling experience that immerses you as a teammate, sitting mat-side during the high-class wrestling action. You could not get closer than this!
Defy defeat.
