SWC Champs Lady Raiders Have a Most Triumphant Journey Th Lhe games have been played. The season is over. The cheers have faded and the crowds have gone home. The stories have all been written and the stats have been quoted over and over. But the memories and the luster of a near perfect season for the Lady Raid- ers remain. And those moments re- main especially vivid for Marsha Sharp and her team. Sharp coached the team through some frightening moments and right into the NCAA Sweet Sixteen, where the Lady Raiders stumbled against Stanford, the future national champi- ons. The last game was tougher for some of the Lady Raiders than it was for those who would be returning to the squad for another season. I don ' t think it really hit me that this would be my last game until we had a timeout and 1 was walking back on to the court. 1 was about to cry, but then I thought, ' No. Not on national televi- sion, ' said Teresa McMillan, one of the squad ' s four graduating seniors. But there was the share of good times. Ltke beating the Raiders ' old enemy, the Texas Lady Longhoms. 1 have a lot of respect for (Texas coach) Jody Conradt. We ' ve modeled much of our program after Texas, but it ' s really hard when you ' re chasing one of the top teams in the country right in your own conference, Sharp said. 1 don ' t think we ever really thought about losing. The only thing Coach Sharp said was, If we ' re going to get beat, let ' s not get embarrassed, ' and I think that really helped, Krista Kirkland, a junior point guard, said. Another fond memory of the season was playing for the conference champi- onship in front of the first Lady Raider sellout crowd. Walking into the Coliseum for the conference championship game against A M and seeing that crowd. You know all those people are there for you, McMillan said. Will next year be as sweet?
