Old Dominion Team Capsule

Posted: Wed March 14, 2001 at 8:56 a.m EST

Coach: Wendy Larry (14th year) Nickname: Lady Monarchs

Record and conference: 21-8 Colonial Athletic Seed, Region and Bid: 11, West, Automatic

Previous NCAA Tournament Bids: 17 NCAA Tournament Record: 29-16 Final Four Appearances: 3 NCAA Tournament Championships: 1 Best NCAA Tournament Finish: 1985, National Champions Last NCAA Appearance: 2000, lost to Louisiana Tech, 86-74, Midwest Regional

Starters: F - Hamchetou Maiga (6-1, Sr., 13.8 ppg, 7.4 rpg) F - Tiffany Thompson (6-0, Jr., 6.2 ppg, 5.4 rpg) G - Sharron Francis (5-8, Jr., 9.4 ppg, 4.3 rpg) G - Okeisha Howard (5-5, So., 14.4 ppg, 3.2 rpg) G - Alli Spence (5-5, So., 4.1 ppg, 4.1 apg)

Outlook: A solid defense is the mantle of this team, but offense is limited. Hamchetou Maiga has improved her game after Old Dominion lost starting center, Lucienne Berthieau, early in the season. The Lady Monarchs may have a higher seed than they have earned and in the first round will face a Washington team that has more confidence than it knows what do with.
