You're right, I just know it by the wrong name; thought it was part of the Coliseum complex. 1990 was Knoxville, 1991 was New Orleans (at UNO's arena at that point), and 1992 was at that mausoleum in LA. I just remember traveling there for a men's b-ball game during that timeframe, and having a grand total of about 1100 people in it for USC.
1991 was a tough one; a great team, until injuries to Trisha Stevens and Julie Zielstra late in the season left us completely reliant on Sonja Henning and Val Whiting. Kelly Dougherty (sp?) played a tough game in trying to fill in against Tennessee, and Sonja Henning was IMO our best true point guard ever, but the Vols had the prior season's disappointment to fuel them and beat us in the semis. But a great time was had by all on Bourbon Street - I think I was awake the entire time I was there, doing the typical tourist things (as in, hurricanes and other potent libations at night, beignets at Cafe du Monde in the morning).
