The UCF Women's Basketball team experienced a taste of something last season It was .an unwanted, unfriendly and unfamiliar taste. It was the taste of reality, and the realization that winning wasn't something that was gbing to come easily anymore. Before last year, the Golden Knights had put together four consecutive winning seasons, with three of those ending in regular season conference titles. Last season, however, brought a new conference, new teams and a whole new level of talent unknown to the Knights. And it showed, as they fin­ ished their first season in Conference USA with a 7- 21 overall record and a 5-ll record in the conference, good enough for llth place. · But the Knights are back this season to prove to their fans and themselves that they have what it takes to compete with the big dogs. • The Knights' schedule this year will be similar to last season, featuring both tough conference and non-conference opponents. "I don't think it's that much different that the year past," UCF head coach Gail Striegler said ''The con­ ference teams will be the same ... and prior to that we're doing the same as we've done before by play­ ing a couple Top-25 teams.'' "The only difference I see is that they [the . NCAA] allowed us to add two games this year," Striegler said ' The Knights will· look to their early season games in order to prepare them for conference action, which begins in Janruiry. •. "You use it as a stepping stone in order to get ready for the conference," said Striegler. I think the preseason is very important in setting up how you ~I do in conference. It will be a good base for us to build ourselves on" The Knights will face the likes ofBaylor, Bowling Green and Florida State, who are all threats to the Top-25 and the NCAA tournament year after yeai: "We've got a very tough preseason schedule," said Striegler. ''But this will obviously help us pre­ pare for the conference:• Facing a tough schedule and the pressure to improve last season's mark. the Knights will look to Home not so their guards to add the depth and backcourt pres­ sure that they lacked last year.
