This weekend Ticha Penicheiro will join the 21st class of inductees to be honored at the Women's Basketball Hall of Fame in Knoxville, Tennessee, and it's a cool coincidence for a player who wore 21 her entire career.
"I'm overwhelmed honestly," said Penicheiro, 44, who will be inducted along with Ruth Riley, Valerie Still, Nora Lynn Finch, Joan Cronan, Carolyn Bush Roddy and Beth Bass. "It's amazing how much joy basketball has given me, whether it's people I have met, places I have been, money that I've earned. To get this accolade, that people feel what I did is worthy of the Hall, is humbling."
