    Sasha is joined in studio this week by her Sports on Screen co-host, Steve Bollinger, and they’re diving into a beloved sports classic; the rebellious, high-energy gymnastics movie Stick It!

They’ll dig into what makes this movie more than just a sports film, from its themes of girl power and friendship to its clever cinematography and bold social commentary. Stick around to hear fun behind-the-scenes facts, like Missy Peregrym’s journey to landing the lead role, and of course, their final verdict: Does Stick It! make the cut?
