UVA Football: NFL Films doc ‘Tragedy to Triumph’ to air on ACC Network

ACC Network will tear at our heartstrings ahead of the 2026 UVA Football season opener, with the debut of the TV version of “Tragedy to Triumph,” a NFL Films documentary on the 2022 season, and the Nov. 13 tragedy.

ACCN will broadcast the movie on Friday night at 8 p.m., with a second screening on Saturday at 9 a.m.

You know the story. Three UVA Football players – Devin Chandler, Lavel Davis Jr. and D’Sean Perry – were shot and killed on a bus returning from a drama class field trip on the night of Nov. 13, 2022, a day after a home football game with Pitt.

A fourth player, Mike Hollins, and a UVA Track athlete, Marlee Morgan, were seriously wounded in the shooting.

I didn’t get an advance copy, but, feels to me that this one is a must-watch.
