Premiered November 2014: ICE WARRIORS
Ice hockey: a game of force, speed, and strategy, played by top athletes with sticks, sharp sled runners, and the serrated ice picks used to propel their sleds.
See the full story of Team USA’s record-breaking performance at the 2014 Paralympic Winter Games in ICE WARRIORS: USA SLED HOCKEY (premiered November 2014 on PBS).
The personal stories are riveting, from a fifteen-year old making his team debut to “wounded warriors,” injured in Iraq and Afghanistan and proud to continue representing the US in Paralympic sports. All are committed to winning gold in Sochi against their traditional rivals, Canada, and the upstart young team from Russia.
ICE WARRIORS: Tough competition. Spiritual uplift.
