Congratulations to former Sacramento Monarch (and Tennessee Lady Vols) player Bridgette Gordon for being named to the Women's Basketball Hall of Fame! Bridgette was part of the original 1997 Monarchs team and played for them during the early, struggling years. She later became an assistant coach at Stetson University.
She will be formally inducted into the HoF during the weekend of July 8-9, 2007 in Knoxville, TN.
