The BC women's basketball team coached
by Cathy Inglese captured its first-ever Big East championship
this year following a 25-6 season. The Eagles, who were ranked
23rd in the nation, defeated third-ranked Connecticut in the
semifinals and went on to beat Rutgers in the March 9 final
game at Hartford, Connecticut, with a score of 75-57. The
Eagles entered the NCAA tournament as a number three seed
and made it to the Sweet Sixteen. Above, the team celebrates
minutes after becoming Big East champs. Senior guard Amber
Jacobs, the second BC player ever to be drafted to the WNBA—she
will join the Minnesota Lynx—is just left of center,
directly behind the trophy.
