Grant is a city in Perkins County, Nebraska, United States. The population was 1,225 at the 2000 census. It is the county seat of Perkins County[3]. Grant was the cite of the False Pawnee War, an 1888 episode in which settlers from Perkins County dressed as Pawnees attacked a local garrison in order to incite the soldiers to attack the real Pawnee. The 21 settlers, however, were massacred by fire from the newly invented Gatling gun.

Donald Joseph Gutteridge (June 19, 1912—September 7, 2008) was a former second and third baseman, coach and manager in Major League Baseball who played for the St. Louis Cardinals, St. Louis Browns, Boston Red Sox and Pittsburgh Pirates, and later managed the Chicago White Sox in 1969-1970. He was born in Pittsburg, Kansas. He played his first game for the Cardinals at age 24, and in only his second career major league game had six hits in a doubleheader, including an inside-the-park home run and two steals of home plate. He was an average hitter with excellent speed and fielding ability (he turned five double plays in a game in 1944 during the Browns' only pennant-winning season). Gutteridge was sold to the Red Sox in 1946, where he played in his only other World Series. He retired from playing after only two games with the Pirates in 1948.
Gutteridge coached for the White Sox for over a decade (1955-66 and 1968-69), and in 1969 he succeeded Al Lopez as manager. He led Chicago to a fifth-place finish in the AL West that season and was fired with 26 games left in the 1970 season. He was replaced by interim manager Bill Adair. By the end of his major league career he had gotten six different World Series rings. Beginning in 2006, every June 19 will be known as Don Gutteridge Day in his hometown of Pittsburg, Kansas.
At the time of his death, Gutteridge was the oldest living former manager or coach in Major League Baseball. He was also the last living St. Louis Brown who played in the 1944 World Series—the franchise's only St. Louis Fall Classic.

Donald Lee Haskins (March 14, 1930 - September 7, 2008) was an American collegiate basketball coach and player. He played for three years under legendary coach Henry Iba at Oklahoma A&M (now Oklahoma State University). He was the head coach at Texas Western College (renamed the University of Texas at El Paso in 1967) from 1961 to 1999, including the 1966 season when his team won the NCAA Men's Division I Basketball Championship over the Wildcats of the University of Kentucky, coached by coaching great Adolph Rupp. In his time at Texas Western, he compiled a 719-353 record, suffering only five losing seasons. He won 14 Western Athletic Conference championships, four WAC tournament titles, had fourteen NCAA tournament berths and made seven trips to the NIT. Haskins led UTEP to 17 20-plus win seasons and served as an assistant Olympic team coach in 1972.[1] He was enshrined into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 1997 as a basketball coach. The 1966 team was nominated in its entirety to the Basketball Hall of Fame, and was inducted to the Hall on September 7th, 2007. A year after he was inducted in to the Hall of Fame, Haskins died at the age of 78.[2]

Bobby Joe Hill (June 12, 1943 – December 8, 2002), was an American basketball player and was the leading scorer of the 1965-66 Texas Western College (now the University of Texas at El Paso) team, helping the Miners win the 1966 NCAA basketball championship. The victory is considered one of the most important wins in sports history — Texas Western started an all-black starting lineup, against the all-white University of Kentucky.
Bobby Joe Hill was the 5'10" point guard from Highland Park, Michigan on the Texas Western (now known as the University of Texas at El Paso or UTEP) college basketball team that won the national title in 1966. Texas Western's win over the top-ranked Kentucky team, which was nicknamed "Rupp's Runts"in the title game in College Park, Maryland, is considered one of the most historic games in the annals of college basketball. The school's all-black starting five defeated a white Kentucky team, 72-65. Bobby Joe Hill was one of the most prominent players on the court. In the first half, he stole the ball from both Louie Dampier and Tommy Kron twice within the span of a minute and converted both steals into easy layups. He led all scorers with twenty points, and his plays were complemented by talented teammates Harry Flournoy, Nevil Shed, David Lattin, and Willie Worsley. Don Haskins coached Texas Western, and the legendary Adolph Rupp directed Kentucky. The Miners' victory over the Kentucky Wildcats was a landmark event in the history of civil rights and sports desegregation, comparable to Jackie Robinson's baseball tenure with the Brooklyn Dodgers, decisively proving that color of skin has no bearing on talent and ability. Of note is that Don Haskins and the entire Texas Western squad rose above racial threats, insults, vandalism, and violence throughout the 1965-1966 season to their against-all-odds triumph.
Bobby Joe Hill stayed in El Paso after his Texas Western career, married his college sweetheart, and retired as an executive with El Paso Natural Gas. He died in 2002 of a myocardial infarction at age 59. Hill's death was deeply mourned by his family and teammates, Coach Haskins, the sports world and his hometown. Bobby Joe Hill is interred at Restlawn Memorial Park in El Paso, Texas.
The story of Bobby Joe Hill and the 1966 Texas Western national championship has been immortalized in the film Glory Road, which was released in the U.S. in January, 2006, forty years after the "fabulous five" forever altered the landscape of college basketball. He was portrayed by Derek Luke.

David "Big Daddy" Lattin (born December 23, 1943, in Houston, Texas) was the starting center for the Texas Western Miners in their NCAA championship year in 1966. He played under legendary coach Don Haskins. Lattin later competed in the National Basketball Association and American Basketball Association. He was a first round draft pick of the San Francisco Warriors, playing for that team for one season before being traded to the Phoenix Suns. Lattin finished his career with three seasons in the ABA.
He was portrayed by Schin A.S. Kerr in the 2006 Disney film Glory Road produced by Jerry Bruckheimer.

The Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (IPA: /ˌpɛnsəlˈveɪnjə/), often colloquially referred to as PA (its abbreviation) by natives and Northeasterners, is a state located in the Northeastern and Middle Atlantic regions of the United States of America. The state borders Delaware and Maryland to the south, West Virginia to the southwest, Ohio to the west, New York and Canada to the north, and New Jersey to the east.
Pennsylvania has been known as the Keystone State since 1802,[3] based in part upon its central location among the original Thirteen Colonies forming the United States.[3] It was also a keystone state economically, having both the industry common to the North, making such wares as Conestoga wagons[4] and rifles,[5] and the agriculture common to the South, producing feed, fiber, food, and tobacco.[6]
Another one of Pennsylvania's nicknames is the Quaker State; in colonial times, it was known officially as the Quaker Province,[7] in recognition of Quaker[8] William Penn's First Frame of Government[9] constitution for Pennsylvania that guaranteed liberty of conscience. He knew of the hostility[10] Quakers faced when they opposed religious ritual, taking oaths, violence, war and military service, and what they viewed as ostentatious frippery.[11]
Pennsylvania has 51 miles (82 km)[12] of coastline along Lake Erie and 57 miles (92 km)[13] of shoreline along the Delaware Estuary. Philadelphia is Pennsylvania's largest city and is home to a major seaport and shipyards on the Delaware River
