There are a lot of other pretty cool vintage pictures of UCONN campus and campus life in this slideshow. Sorry if previously posted.

Neat, How tall are they?

Seeing as how their "shorts" are at least 3 feet long I'd say they're all at least 6'1".

The one standing in the middle looks like she just wants to hit something orange.

But the press guide said 5'11".

At least they DRESSed for the occasion.

They list the woman next to the coach as 5' 10", but I know the coach and he's 5' 11"

Although I can't find any definitive reference online, didn't women play six to a side in those days with only two roving players on each team?

So either some players didn't make the photo, UConn played shorthanded, it was five to a side (which means everybody played all the time) or the guy on the left ended up pulling a Caitlyn Jenner.
