Biography

After a nine-year title drought, the Lady Vols captured an elusive seventh national title on April 3rd, beating Rutgers to the ball for second and third shots in a 59-46 win to reclaim their customary place above all other programs. The NCAA Division I National Championship Title was the seventh in team history and the seventh for Coach Pat Summitt. That victory was the 947th win for the Hall of Fame Coach Summitt. The 2007 Lady Vols smoked the program record for best defensive average, allowing just 55.5 points per contest. Parker earned Most Outstanding Player honors, and Anosike and Bobbitt joined her on the All-Final Four Team. The team finished the season with an impressive 34-3 record and three ESPY award nominations for the team, Coach Summitt and for Candace Parker.
