Main Street Wyoming

Hooping it Up

Season 10 Episode 1005 | 27m

Hooping it Up To the outside world, Wyoming is not a basketball state. But the faithful packing gyms and fired up for March Madness know better. They point to Kenny Sailors, inventor of the jump-shot, and leader of the University of Wyoming’s 1943 NCAA championship team. Seated on bleachers around the state, loyal fans trade stories about other Cowboy State greats.
