2003-04 UC Santa Barbara Women's Basketball Quick Facts UC Santa Barbara Quick Facts Location: Santa Barbara, Calif. Founded: 1944 (as part of the UC system) Enrollment: 19,080 Chancellor: Dr. Henry Yang Athletic Director: Gary Cunningham Senior Women's Administrator: Alice Henry Athletic Representative: Dr. Steve Allaback Conference: Big West Conference Members: Cal Poly, Cal State Fullerton, Cal State Northridge, UC Irvine, UC Riverside, UC Santa Barbara, Idaho, Long Beach State and Pacific Nickname: Gauchos Colors: Blue & Gold (PMS 288 and 129) Facility: The Thunderdome (6,000) Athletic Media Relations Information Director: Bill Mahoney Associate Director (Publications): Diane O'Brien Assistant Director (WBB Contact): Ben Alkaly Office Phone: (805) 893-8603 Home Phone: (805) 569-7178 E-mail Address: ben.alkaly@athletics.ucsb.edu Media Relations Fax: (805) 893-4537 Official Website: www.ucsbgauchos.com Media Relations Mailing Address: Athletic Media Relations UC Santa Barbara 1001 Robertson Gymnasium Santa Barbara, CA 93106-7211 2003-04 UCSB Basketball Quick Glance Led by four returning starters - all of them postseason award winners - the 2003-04 UC Santa Barbara women's basketball team will vie for an unprecedented ninth consecutive Big West Conference regular season title and eighth straight NCAA Tournament berth. Santa Barbara will carry a 23-game homecourt winning streak - second-longest in the nation behind only National Champion UConn - into the 2003-04 season. That streak will be tested as the Gauchos host four teams which joined them in the last year's Big Dance, in addition to at least one round of the Preseason WNIT. UCSB was also selected as one of 16 host sites for the first and second round of the 2004 NCAA Tournament. For the first time since 1992 and 1993, the Gauchos made back-toback appearances in the second round of the Big Dance. Last season No. 7 UCSB won it's first-ever NCAA game as a higher-seeded team by defeating No. 10 Xavier in first round play 71-62 before falling at second-seeded Texas Tech by a 72-68 margin. UCSB is one of one of only six programs in the country that had two of its players gain international experience with USA Basketball this summer. Honorable mention All-American Lindsay Taylor competed in the Pan American Games, while fellow First Team All-Big West honoree Kristen Mann represented her country in the FIBA World Championships for Young Women. Two other returning Gaucho starters also earned postseason acclaim in 2002-03. Sophomores Mia Fisher and Brandy Richardson were both honorable mention All-Big West performers a year ago. Highlighting Santa Barbara's five newcomers are a pair of Division I transfers, point guard April McDivitt and post player Kate Bauman.
