UNLV Posted January 12, 2007 Report Posted January 12, 2007 Don't forget she dunked in a lady cardinal game. Years before Lisa Leslie dunk.
Bobcat1 Posted March 1, 2009 Report Posted March 1, 2009 I know this is old, but she is a new member to the this site and I wanted her to see this.
Bobcat1 Posted March 1, 2009 Report Posted March 1, 2009 I'll try to post the picture of her dunking if she'll send it to me!
skyhcky Posted March 1, 2009 Report Posted March 1, 2009 Thanks Bobcat05, that was a very overwhelming experience. I was lucky enough to play on a FANTASTIC team. Hey coop how have you been? its only been a million years
HoopInsider_Cooper Posted March 1, 2009 Report Posted March 1, 2009 Don't forget lil coop (now taller than older coop)
UNLV Posted March 1, 2009 Report Posted March 1, 2009 Are you sure that is the right picture. It look like she missed it. I remember a clean dunk...
skyhcky Posted March 1, 2009 Report Posted March 1, 2009 the ball slipped out of my hand on that one. It still went in but wasn't a dunk. In the same game I drove the baseline and pushed the ball over the rim. Channels 4 & 12 said it was a dunk but Greg Kerr on 6 said no lol.. Since I always respected Kerr I went with no Not that I didn't respect the guys from 4 & 12..Greg could hoop
skyhcky Posted March 1, 2009 Report Posted March 1, 2009 no, sorry I don't have very many photos from that time. All I have are on my myspace now. Not everyone had a digital camera back then or a camcorder in the stands filming
