    CALIFORNIA BASKETBALL 2008-09 MEDIA CLIPPINGS Sweet 16 party for the Bears Contra Costa Times, March 24, 2009 By Jennifer Starks To hear her tell it, Cal guard Alexis Gray-Lawson’s motivations in the NCAA Tournament have less to do with turning a page for the women’s basketball program and more to do with extending the season for seniors Devanei Hampton, Ashley Walker and Shantrell Sneed. “For me,” she said, “it’s about playing with them another day.” Still, the conditions went hand-in-hand Monday night, as the fourth-seeded Bears were inspired from the outset and disposed of No. 5-seed Virginia 99-73 in the second round of the NCAA Tournament at the Galen Center. Cal advanced to the Sweet 16 for the fi rst time and, in doing so, ensured the heralded senior class stayed together for at least one more game. The win sets up a potential run-in with undefeated Connecticut, the No. 1 seed in the Trenton (N.J.) Region, on Sunday at the Sovereign Bank Arena. Geno Auriemma’s Huskies play No. 8 Florida in the second round today. “I knew this was in my team,” Cal coach Joanne Boyle said. “It was there. They understand it has to come from all of them, and it really showed.” No doubt, Monday’s breakthrough is the biggest win in Boyle’s four-season run in Berkeley. She’s led the Bears, once an afterthought on the West Coast basketball scene, to the NCAA Tournament every season, but the Sweet 16 had been uncharted territory until Monday.
