Summary:
Twenty years before women'
s
soccer became an
Olympic
sport and two decades before the formation of the WNBA, the '76 US women'
s
basketball
team
laid the foundation for the incredible rise of women'
s
sports in America at the youth, collegiate,
Olympic
, and professional levels. Though they were unknowns from small schools such as Delta State, the University of Tennessee at Martin and John F. Kennedy College of Wahoo, Nebraska, at the time of the '76 Olympics, the American
team
included a roster of players who would go on to become some of the most legendary figures in the history of
basketball
. From Pat Head, Nancy Lieberman, Ann Meyers, Lusia Harris, coach Billie Moore, and beyond--these
women
took on the world and proved everyone wrong. Packed with black-and-white photos and thoroughly researched details about the beginnings of US women'
s
basketball
,
Inaugural
Ballers
is the fascinating
story
of the
women
who paved the way for girls everywhere.
