Or, more specifically, to be on Northwestern's guards.

Illini women dig deep for win  (Monday, January 20, 1997)

CHAMPAIGN – Point guard Krista Reinking sat at the end of the bench in street clothes, her sprained right ankle tightly wrapped.

Forward Ashley Berggren, in uniform and in full health, had joined her. Again. Twenty-four seconds into the second half, Berggren picked up foul No. 4. This after playing only nine minutes during the first half due to three fouls.

If ever the depth of this University of Illinois women's basketball team would be put to the test, this was it.

Year out of basketball tough for ex-Rutgers standout  (Monday, January 13, 1997)

   CHAMPAIGN  Alicia Sheeler wasn''t naive. The 6-foot-3 center knew what she was getting into by transferring to a new school.

   She knew it would mean sitting out an entire basketball season, as mandated by NCAA transfer rules.
