BIRMINGHAM, Alabama -- The Albany State women’s basketball program has been waiting 16 years to celebrate a conference championship.
After beating Clark Atlanta in Friday’s SIAC semifinal game, 70-58, the Lady Rams might not have to wait much longer.
ASU advanced to the conference title game for the first time since its 1998 championship season with a come-from-behind win against Clark Atlanta, but Lady Rams head coach Robert Skinner had to remind his players after the victory that the real celebration needs to wait at least another day.
“They got a little beside themselves after the game was over and started some premature celebration on the sideline,” Skinner said. “I had to settle them down and remind them that we are just winning another game. The championship is (today). Win that, and you can celebrate all you want.”
