Glad my kids can share this with me ..to all the great players who played there was a place in time where Oakland was the gold standard in women’s hoops ..and you were the reason why ..thanks
Congrats to Bob Taylor, one of the Class of 2022 inductees to the Hollie L. Lepley Hall of Honor!
Oakland made the NCAA Tournament six times under Taylor, highlighted by a trip to the Final Four in 1990 and an Elite Eight appearance in 1995.

As a former college coach at the game ..I recommend getting this game tape .Drew showed complete game bring ball up/penetrating /dishing/finishing and deep range vs intense pressure ..defending a nationally elite player and playing in foul trouble entire game..
