Behind the Scenes of the Award Winning Docu-Series Furman's Men's Basketball Championship Quest Film

The Furman men's basketball team hasn't won the Southern Conference Tournament Championship since 1980, enduring one of the longest droughts in college basketball history, and in 2022, they were just 4.3 seconds away from victory before a last-second 3-point shot dashed their hopes. "Better Together: Furman's Championship Quest" is a 5-episode limited series chronicling the team's pursuit of a SoCon Tournament Championship and a return to March Madness after 43 years as a Cinderella team.
