BOB STARKEY (12-22-09):

The last game before Christmas break is never an easy one. For the players there is so much to think about with the holidays upon us. They are working to play good basketball but have also spent time shopping for Christmas and packing to go home for a few days. For six of our players, there has been winter session classes. Not because they need them, but because they wanted to get ahead academically -- which makes our staff very proud! With the Southeastern game there was a lot of extra curricular activity so we were grateful to leave the PMAC tonight with a nice victory. Another great aspect of our game tonight was all the Lady Tiger alumni that came out including players Quianna Chaney, Temeka Johnson, Tae Tae LeBlanc, Khalilah Mitchell and Mesha Williams. The mini alumni reunion also included past managers, Erica Killum, Angelica Lodge and Brittany Ward. Something else special happened last night (at least in the eyers of our coaching staff) that the normal fan might not have noticed or appreciated. The LSU Band was perched in their normal spot to provide music and entertainment for the game even though we are three days out of Christmas. We appreciated their dedication so before the game our staff bought the band some pizza and after the game Coach Chancellor took the team over to them so say thanks personally -- it's The Lady Tiger Way!
