Vanderbilt Team Capsule

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

Coach: Jim Foster (10th year) Nickname: Commodores

Record and conference finish: 21-19, Southeastern Seed, Region and Bid: 3, Midwest, At-Large

Previous NCAA Tournament Bids: 13 NCAA Tournament Record: 19-13 Final Four Appearances: 1 NCAA Tournament Championships: None Best NCAA Tournament Finish: 1993, Final Four Last NCAA Appearance: 2000, lost to Louisiana Tech, 66-65, Second Round

Starters: F - Jenni Benningfield (6-3, Fr., 9.8 ppg, 7.1 rpg) F - Zuzana Klimesova (6-2, Jr., 15.9 ppg, 7.9 rpg) C - Chantelle Anderson (6-6, So., 21.1 ppg, 6.2 rpg) G - Hillary Hager (5-11, Fr., 5.5 ppg, 2.6 rpg) G - Ashley McElhiney (5-6, So., 9.7 ppg, 2.2 rpg)

Outlook: The Commodores proved to everyone they are a dangerous team by knocking off Tennessee in the SEC championship game. As a reward they got placed in the same Midwest Region with Notre Dame, Iowa, Iowa State and Utah, which is perhaps the most difficult region. Chantelle Anderson and Zuzana Klimesova are as good as any frontcout duo in the nation and could carry Vanderbilt surprisingly far.
