Full Armor: A True Story of Courage

By E.F. Courtright and Chuck Bushbeck

They told him he couldn't play. He was determined to prove them wrong. Chuck Bushbeck was a typical kid, embroiled in the mischief of city street life. No one expected him to rise to become a pre-season all-American collegiate football player. Several Division I schools wanted him, yet Chuck chose Villanova, where he became the starting placekicker his freshman year. But when a series of events prior to his senior season-including Villanova dropping their football program, and a transfer to East Carolina University-culminated in a diagnosis of Hodgkin's Lymphoma, everyone believed Chuck's football career was finished. Everyone except one daring co-ed, whose encouragement and devotion became the anchor he needed to persevere. An unforgettable true story of love, loss, and triumph over tragedy. "... not because it's about football or beating cancer. It's a story of people, coming of age, and staring death in the face... 'Full Armor' forces us to find meaning in our lives, so that we will be inspired to bring out the best in each other..."- DOUG SHIMELL, Emmy Award-winning journalist, actor and producer
