Most fans of women's basketball would be startled to learn that girls' teams were making their mark more than a century ago-and that nonewas more prominent than a team from an isolated Indian boarding school in Montana. Playing like "lambent flames" across the polished floors ofdance halls, armories, and gymnasiums, the girls from Fort Shaw stormed the state to emerge as Montana's first basketball champions. Taking their game to the 1904 St. Louis World's Fair, these young women introduced an international audience to the fledgling game and returned home with a trophy declaring them champions.
