If this had been the men's team, several Board regulars would, without hesitation, have been calling for the immediate termination of the coach. Indeed, the men will be hard pressed to turn in an overall worse performance at home this season than the game this evening.
It could have been even worse, except that a propitiously timed shot clock problem in the second quarter delayed the proceedings for several minutes just after S.C had taken an early 6 point lead, and the interruption seemed to take away S.C's momentum [for awhile, at least].
Also, due to this being a Nike N7 Native American Heritage Celebration game [or something like that], we were sporting turquoise uniforms with red stripes. Turquoise is great for jewelry...but made for really ugly uniforms. Also rather disorienting, as the S.C uniforms looked a lot more like Stanford [away] uniforms. Finally, it seemed a little...ironic, I guess... that our warm-up shirts sported the image of a Native American in a full headdress, and the half-time entertainment was a Native American dance troupe. Seems to me there used to be a school in the Bay Area that had uniforms with a Native American headdress and who had a Native American performing a dance at halftime. They had to get rid of all that though. I just can't remember that school's name...
