Basketball, Water and the Lost City of Elbowoods

The 1942 Elbowoods High School basketball team made it to the North Dakota State Class B championship game, but they lost in a bizarre twist that resulted in a 60-year effort to right a wrong. “Basketball, Water and the Lost City of Elbowoods” relives the excitement of that basketball team and the title game controversy, and it examines the fate of the team’s hometown-which was sacrificed after the Garrison Dam was constructed in 1953 and is now covered by Lake Sakakawea.
