Description:

Texas Western College, then a small and uknown school tucked away in the far corner of West Texas, came out of nowhere to pull the biggest upset in the history of college basketball in 1966. The Miners' victory over University of Kentucky, coached by legendary Adolph Rupp, in the finals of the NCAA Tournament was a story of triumph of character and heart over hardship and seemingly impossible odds. The victory also had a big impact on socity. For the first time, five blacks started in the finals of the NCAA Tournament. The victory overcame many prejudices against the ability of black athletes to function in a team concept and opened doors for them throughout the South.
