Mohawk Indian and top-notch soccer player Tom wants to get rid of the school's Indian mascot, so he strikes a deal with the high school coach. If Tom and his misfit friends beat the Warriors in a pre-season scrimmage, the mascot will be changed; if they lose, he'll join the school team. Details about Tom's first crush and his father's death balance the on-field action sequences.
