On this episode of Our American Stories, before he was a billionaire businessman and America’s Cup champion, Bill Koch was a student-athlete at MIT learning lessons that would shape his leadership.

Koch shares how a coach, one play, and a group of “nerds” taught him that winning comes when everyone knows their role and works together.
