The story of the Crispus Attucks Tigers, an all-black basketball team from Indianapolis who won the 1955 high school basketball championship. Ten players, including the famous Oscar Robertson who went on to be a college and NBA star, who were born in the South and raised in poverty went against the odds to become the first all-black team in US history to win a racially open championship tournament.
