Four straight CUNY Conference
championships, four straight 20-win seasons, three straight Hudson Valley
Conference championships, four straight appearances in the ECAC Post-Season
Tournament and regional championships in 1987. These are some of the accomplishments
of the City College women’s basketball team.
Many of the Lady Beavers come to the court with excellent scholastic
credentials, having starred for their high school teams. However, there
is ample opportunity
for unheralded, untried players to contribute to the team.
The players also come to the team as dedicated students who work as hard
on their studies as they do on their jump-shots. This is something upon
which the coaching staff insists, and it is the staff’s belief that the team
is so successful because the players are as committed to their academic work
as they are to basketball.

1994)
