Plot
Tess Foster wants to join the school wrestling team, but her father, who is also the school's gym teacher, declines as she is not a boy and can get hurt a lot easier. Her dad wants for his oldest son, Gabe, to join the wrestling team, but he's too occupied with girls. Tess is furious and doesn't like being stereotyped so she tries to join the team even though her dad told her not to. She comes to the auditions for the try-outs and her dad lets her join the team since she is really good. Tess is thrilled -- until she realizes that the guys from the wrestling team don't like that she's in the team and winning them easily. She starts to be worser at wrestling on purpose, letting guys win so they get their pride back and they don't feel weird about having her on the team. At the end she got hurt and admitted her dad what she did, felt better and continued beating the guys.
