Two Moments of Glory

By Frank Spragg

Book Overview

On Mar. 18, 1960, Gildford High School defeated Holy Rosary to win the Montana State Class C basketball championship. Exactly one year later, Rosary turned the tables, this time upending local-rival Belgrade for the same crown. In Two Moments of Glory, author Frank Spragg offers us not only the history leading to these two championships; he paints a portrait of small towns everywhere, with their public and parochial schools, goofy old gyms, ego clashes and political struggles. Grounded in meticulous research and extensive interviews, these pages contain far more than a recap of games and tournaments, of offenses and defenses, of stars and strategy. They tell a very human story of the camaraderie, rivalry and enduring legacy that high school sports programs bestow on all involved. Two Moments of Glory will keep you riveted from beginning to end.
