More Native Athletes Needed At The Highest Levels!

We, at the Native Expressions blog, are not getting much feedback on the topics we bring up. So lets try something else...with Native athletes dominating the basketball courts & blazing trails to multiple cross-country titles across Montana and Wyoming, why do we not see more college Native athletes at the Division I or II levels? Indian Country in Montana, which is only about 6% of the Montana population has won roughly 36% of boys basketball championships since the 80s. What needs to be done to better the situation? How can we support our Native athletes better? Please share your thoughts...
