Staff Update: We’ve Made It to L.A.

The Cal women’s basketball team and crew have made it to Los Angeles. We flew into Los Angeles Airport on Thursday evening and headed straight to the hotel. Tomorrow the team will participate in one form of a press conference or another. Head coach Joanne Boyle and three players will attend the press conference. Everyone else will stay in the locker room to conduct interviews with media members. After the interviews are complete, the team will spend time practicing at the Galen Center.

Every year that the Bears have gone to the NCAA Tournament (this is the fourth in a row!), the team makes a special post-season t-shirt for everyone. This year, the shirt is black with yellow writing. It says “California Basketball” on the front and “2009 NCAA Tournament: The game is easy…with unity” on the back.

Be sure to check back tomorrow for quotes from the press conference and player journals!
