Chariot Auto Group's Monday Night Memories: The road to Purdue's 1999 national title
In tonight’s Monday Night Memories series (March 25, 2024 edition), brought to you by Chariot Autogroup, we have a 90-plus minute discussion with key members of the legendary 1999 Purdue women’s basketball team as they talk about the special ingredients it took to win the national title.
Special guests are ’99 national Player-of-the-year winner Stephanie White and star guard Ukari Figgs, both senior leaders on the team that finished with a 34-1 record. Also participating are sophomore starters, Boilermaker greats Camille Cooper and Katie Douglas, and assistant coaches Kerry Cremeans, Seth Kushin and Pam Stackhouse. A lively discussion ensues with the jovial, tight-knit group that held it all together to achieve the sport’s highest prize during turbulent times for the Boilermaker program.
The group covers topics such as what it took to win it all, dealing with doubters, whether the ’99 Boilermakers could beat Caitlin Clark and the Iowa Hawkeyes, and what they would say to coach Matt Painter’s Sweet 16 team as they make their way towards history.
