Counting Coup: a True Story of Basketball and Honor on the Little Big Horn
- Binding: Hardcover
- Publisher: Warner Books
- Publish date: 01/01/2000
Description:
There was a time when "counting coup" meant literally touching one's enemy in battle and living to talk about it. Still part of the Native American tradition, today the phrase means playing winning hoops and dominating one's opponents.
Expand description
Capturing the divisive racism between whites and Native Americans and the hardscrabble existence of a small rural town, "Counting Coup" tells the story of the girls' varsity basketball team at Hardin High School in Crow, Montana.
The team -- comprised of both Crow Indian and white girls -- is led by Sharon Laforge, a moody, undisciplined yet talented Native American girl who's hoping to be the first female player from her high school to earn a basketball scholarship to college. While following Laforge and the Hardin High School girls basketball team for an entire season, Colton shows how the players deal with success, failure, friendship, rivalries, racism, and romance.
