Description: Sharon LaForge is a 17-year-old Native American basketball player who lit up the gym with talent, spirit, and a fierce will to win--a young woman engaged in a heroic struggle not only to lead her team to the state finals, but to save herself from a life of poverty and loss. Through her eyes we witness a harrowing battle with alcoholism, a shattered family, racial conflict, and growing up.
