Langston University - One Season, One Shot
One Season, One Shot follows the Lions of Langston University — the nation’s westernmost Historically Black College & University — as they seek redemption after a crushing last-second defeat in the NAIA National Championship. With a roster of entirely new players striving to live up to the legacy of the previous season, the documentary short weaves together the personal and the collective: athletes navigating deeply personal challenges, academic pressure, and institutional adversity while chasing a shared dream.
Told with raw, vérité intimacy, the short captures not just the game but the spirit of the program, the passion of its head coach, and the resilience of a team determined to rewrite its story. Produced in partnership with 1577 Productions and the National Basketball Players Association, One Season, One Shot is ultimately about belief — in yourself, in each other, and in something bigger than basketball.
