Most fans of womens basketball would be startled to learn that girls teams were making their mark more than a century agoand that none was more prominent than a team from an isolated Indian boarding school in Montana. Playing like lambent flames across the polished floors of dance halls, armories, and gymnasiums, the girls from Fort Shaw stormed the state to emerge as Montanas first basketball champions. Taking their game to the 1904 St. Louis Worlds Fair, these young women introduced an international audience to the fledgling game and returned home with a trophy declaring them champions.World champions. And yet their triumphs were forgottenuntil Linda Peavy and Ursula Smith chanced upon a team photo and embarked on a tenyear journey of discovery. Their indepth research and extensive collaboration with the teammates descendents and tribal kin have resulted in a narrative as entertaining as it is authentic.FullCourt Quest offers a rare glimpse into American Indian life and into the world of womens basketball before girls rules temporarily shackled the sport. For anyone captivated by Sea Biscuit, A League of Their Own, and other accounts of unlikely champions, this book rates as nothing but net.
