Just in case you guys needed more motivation to come out and see the Jay Demerit Movie screening at UCSD on July 10. Read this great article on Sports Illustrated about the background to the movie and to Demerit’s life in general. As the article says, this is much more than just a soccer story, and really epitomizes what is great about sports and the American spirit: perseverance.
