It will be very good for Pop, Prins, and Z to meet her. Pop running the floor already brings back memories of Welle. If Prins gets to that level, we will get another shot at the final four within the next few years.

Great news and very well deserved. Congrats Angie.

She was the catalyst to the team doing great things. She was the best player on the team when she was a freshman and was as dominant as they come. The only thing I could never understand was how she didn't get constant offensive fouls. Her favorite move was to post up, hook her arm around the defender and spin to the basket for a scoop shot. It was hilarious and effective.

To say most valuable ever, means a lot. Angie was an All-American, no doubt. Bill's first teams, that took his coaching style and personality changed the landscape. I think the scrappy teams of Grimm(?) were important. They came down to KC and put the conference on notice.
