FRIDAY, MARCH 29, 2002 Spectators expecting a fantastic basketball game were sorely disappointed as The Fighting Whites faced off the Pie Guys in an intramural game at the University of Northern Colorado on Thursday night. But to the founders and members of the Whities, the real battle was not on the court but in the minds of Americans. The team drew national attention to the use of Indians as mascots, they said. The final score was 56 to 33. Get the Story:
