The first girls state basketball tournament -- 50 years before you think

Silly me. I thought Wyoming didn't have a state girls basketball tournament until 1976. I was only 50 years off. Try 1926. That was the first year of the "state" girls basketball tournament organized by old Lingle coach Clyde Braden. From the March 12, 1979, edition of the Star-Tribune: "Distaff state tournaments in Wyoming date back ton 1926. A total of 12 state tournaments were scheduled between '26 and 1937 and nine of them were held. State champions and runnersups in the first era of Wyoming girls' basketball follow: Before stumbling across this article, I had never heard of these tournaments. They've really piqued my interest, and I'm interested in tracking down some people for a story on these tournaments. My question for you: Do you know anybody who played, coached, officiated or watched one of these tournaments? If so, please give me a call at (307) 266-0615 or shoot me an e-mail at patrick.schmiedt@trib.com. Thanks. Posted by patrick.schmiedt@trib.com
