Message: [QUOTE="Argonaut, post: 3408319, member: 9658"] If you're interested in small town basketball, about 10 years ago, PBS did a documentary on class C (small school) girls basketball in Montana. They follow Twin Bridges (HS enrollment the year after this was filmed, the previous year isn't available - 100), Reed Point/Rapelje (two schools, one team - 24 & 21). Scobey (74), Rockey Boy (153), and Chester (81 - but after the merger). [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.pbs.org/video/montanapbs-presents-class-c-the-only-game-in-town/[/URL] The Chester coach in this video, Dustin Gordon, went on to slightly bigger Fairfield (current enrollment - 104 [could play in class C, but chooses to play up in class B]) and his girls went on a 120 win streak and between 2008 and 2017, won seven state championships and was runner-up twice. The top player during that streak, Jill Barta, went on to play (and do quite well) for Kelly Graves at Gonzaga and was drafted by the Lynx, but we all know what happens to those late-rounders.
