Chris Lucas 2019/20 CHEMIST WAREHOUSE WNBL CHAMPIONSHIP MEDIA GUIDE | ADELAIDE LIGHTNING 15 HEAD COACH Chris Lucas is held in high regard within WNBL circles. His involvement in the League’s coaching ranks dates back to his time as an Assistant Coach at Adelaide under Jan Stirling, before taking over the role of Head Coach of the Lightning in 2004. In his initial three-year tenure in the top job, he took the Adelaide Lightning to the finals in each season, reaching as far as the preliminary final in 2006/2007. Lucas left Adelaide at the end of the 2006/07 season, commencing another assistant coaching role, this time at Canberra, under head coach Carrie Graf, helping the Capitals to two WNBL Championships in his three years at the club. He then continued his successes as a Head Coach at the Townsville Fire. In five seasons, Lucas led Townsville to the finals in each occasion, becoming the fifth coach in WNBL history to claim back-to-back Championships in 2014/15 and 2015/16. Lucas then returned home to Adelaide to commence his second stint as head coach of the Lightning for the 2016/17 season.

  • Game Day Program Semi-Final 1
    2018-19 WNBL Semi-final 1 v FRIDAY 25 JANUARY 6 PM DOORS OPEN 7 PM TIP-OFF AIS ARENA Round 15 Recap The final round of the regular season turned out to be more of a thriller than expected, with three out of the top four teams having to go to overtime. For the UC Capitals, a double overtime put the team’s winning streak at risk as Bendigo Spirit put everything on the line for the final game of WNBL19. But Marianna Tolo (27 points, 10 rebounds) and Kelsey Griffin (24 points, 20 rebounds stepped up to get the UC Capitals over the line. UC Capitals head coach, Paul Goriss, said that the close call was a great way to prepare the team for finals. “We haven’t been that behind in the last ten weeks, so having a game where we had to fight harder than what we’ve been used to was great. Having a double overtime game is something we hadn’t had either, so there were great learning outcomes for us heading into finals,” said Goriss. The match against Bendigo was significant in other ways for UC Capitals star, Kelly Wilson, who received her WNBL life membership. Wilson has made her mark in the 2018/19 WNBL season, climbing up to sixth on the all-time games played list and third for all-time assists. Third and fourth place was also determined after a thrilling match between the Perth Lynx and Adelaide Lightning. As the Lynx fell one point short of a win after going to overtime, they have fallen to fourth on the ladder and will therefore be the UC Capitals’ opponent for the semi-finals.

  • Game Day Program
    ROUND 1 GAME DAY PROGRAM V 13 OCTOBER 1C30PM TIP-OFF AIS ARENA GAME PREVIEW The UC Capitals are tipping off the season with a championship rematch! The 2019 grand final series proved to be competitive and this first game will no doubt be interesting as both teams boast an impressive lineup of players. Although losing key players in Leilani Mitchell and Kelly Wilson, the UC Caps have recruited well in Olivia Epoupa – the highly-anticipated French player who has been dubbed one of the fastest players in the women’s game. Everyone’s aware of the powerhouses that are Nurse and Griffin and it will be great to see them out on the court again doing what they do best. With Tolo out for Round 1 to allow herself an extra week of recovery and training and Ruef still awaiting on her permanent residency, a contingent on her playing in the WNBL, the UC Capitals are going to have to play small. Young guns Maddy Rocci and Keely Froling, who both showed their development within the finals, will be stepping up to ensure the UC Capitals aren’t too hindered by these delays. With Froling’s impressive off-season, captain Kelsey Griffin doesn’t have any doubt she will rise to the occasion. After falling one step short in 2018/2019, the Adelaide Lighting have shrugged off doubts about the future of their club by reinvesting in an extremely talented roster. Despite losing Power Forward and MVP candidate Nia Coffey, the Lightning, under head coach Chris Lucas, have doubled down on talented athletic wings with the addition of Opal Steph Talbot to go alongside the reigning defensive player of the year Lauren Nicholson.
