IHSAA Press Release:

2014 "LEGENDS OF THE GAME"

The Idaho High School Activities Association is pleased to announce the 2014 "Legends of the Game" recipients.  The award was established in 2001 to help preserve the heritage of Idaho high school sports by honoring great teams of the past.  Eligible basketball "Legends" include girls’ teams from at least 20 years ago and boys’ teams from at least 30 years ago.  Ceremonies honoring "Legends" recipients will take place during halftime of the state 5A basketball championship games at the Idaho Center.  The girls’ ceremonies are slated for February 22 and the boys’ ceremonies will take place on March 8.

Girls’ Basketball – Post Falls High School - 1983
Post Falls High School’s girls’ basketball team, under the direction of Coach Ron Worley, is the thirteenth recipient of the IHSAA girls "Legends of the Game" award. 

Using groundbreaking full-court man-to-man defense, the 1983 Post Falls Trojans earned an impressive 21-4 record on their way to winning the A2 State Championship. 

The Trojans upset two-time defending state champion Moscow and undefeated Preston on their way to the title.  Post Falls also earned a runner-up trophy in 1984.

Boys’ Basketball – Salmon High School – 1964
Salmon High School’s 1964 basketball team has been chosen as the fourteenth IHSAA boys "Legends of the Game".  This amazing team brought Salmon High School its very first state championship. 

The senior-laden team never lost a home game in three seasons.  Salmon beat Snake River in overtime in the semi-final game to earn a berth in the championship game against rival Bonneville. 

The Savages fought off a tough Bonneville team in the finals winning 54-53 in overtime. 

The team was welcomed home with a ten mile, 200+ car caravan the following day.
