Where to Watch The Mighty Macs

If you’re looking for an inspiring sports story rooted in true events, check out The Mighty Macs, which is now streaming on Angel.

Set in 1971, The Mighty Macs tells the remarkable true story of Immaculata College’s women’s basketball team—long before women’s sports received national attention or institutional support. When Cathy Rush arrives as the school’s new head coach, she inherits a program with almost nothing: no gym on campus, limited funding, and little belief that a small, all-women’s college could compete at a high level.

Despite the odds, Cathy refuses to give up. With the help of a determined assistant coach, a group of devoted nuns, and a team of young women willing to work harder than anyone expects, she begins to build something extraordinary. What starts as a struggling program becomes a powerful example of perseverance, teamwork, and belief in the face of skepticism.

More than a basketball movie, The Mighty Macs is a story about breaking barriers, standing firm in conviction, and discovering what’s possible when people come together for a purpose bigger than themselves.

Watch The Mighty Macs today on Angel and experience the true story that helped change women’s sports history.
