“
In some ways it will be a season of unknowns, but along with these unknowns will be many surprises.”
C
ypress looks toward the 2007-08 season with a new look including plenty of new faces in a new set of uniforms. After spending a season as the defending state champs and then the defending conference champs, Cypress is back in a familiar and comfortable position as underdogs this season. This year’s squad will look to rebuild the program after a disappointing 1416 losing record and a fifth place finish last season despite an experienced team. Last season was the first year that head coach Margaret Mohr did not bring Cypress to the playoffs since 1998-99 and also Cypress’s first losing season since 2000-01. The Charger underdogs are a motley crew of youth and energy who hope to surprise opponents and fans while earning back the Cypress reputation of being overachievers. Margaret Mohr, entering her tenth season as the Cypress head coach shares her outlook on the season ahead:
T
his year will be an exciting year for the Lady Chargers. In some ways it will be a season of unknowns, but along with these unknowns will be many surprises. With many new faces and only a few old ones, the Cypress Chargers will definitely have a new look but hopefully
enjoy some of the same old success of past teams. How these young new players develop and adapt to the Charger mantra of “Hard Work Pays Off ” will determine what this team looks like at the end of the season. The team takes the same previous road travelled by the Charger teams of the past by playing a tough pre-season schedule. We open up in the always challenging Merced Tournament, play defending state champion Mt. Sac in mid-November, and end the month with cross-town rival Cerritos in the annual Thanksgiving-Eve Classic. December gets no easier starting with the 24th annual Lady Charger Classic which the Chargers have won the last four years. Also in December, the Lady Chargers will take on an always tough Ventura team, cross-town rival Long Beach City, and up-and-coming Glendale before participating in the always competitive De Anza Tournament after Christmas. After the New Year, the Charger schedule takes off starting with a tough non-conference game versus Canyons to tune up the Chargers for the toughest conference in the state – the Orange Empire Conference. If the young Lady Chargers work hard and mature, they will be in the race for the conference championship.
Leading the way will be sophomore posts Saw-Ann Bryan and Letisha Batiste and redshirt freshmen Candyce Carlberg, Janice Griesser, and Jazzlyn Walker. All three redshirts have improved dramatically in their redshirt year. This freshman class has the chance to be one of the strongest collectively that the Chargers have had in quite some time. These ten freshmen all bring great enthusiasm and work ethic, along with unique skills that will add to the Lady Charger program. Keke Jolly, Ashley Johnston, Sequana Norris, and Tara Smith bring athleticism and quickness that will help greatly in transition and on the defensive end. Shooters Michelle Salemi, Nyesha Green, Ana Astrologo, Marissa Main, Noor Dahdul, and Chelsea Oldfield will give the Chargers the best collective outside threat that I have had in my ten years here. The challenge for the team and the coaching staff will be to mesh all these talents into a cohesive force. More than likely, there will be a period of adjustment and discovery as this year’s team finds and produces their identity. If the 2007-08 Chargers grow into their best selves, this unknown team will be known come February.

10th Season Long Beach State 1988
M
argaret Mohr has built a Charger legacy based on hard work, integrity, and overachievement. This year, she is rebuilding a Cypress program that suffered a low year and returns just two sophomores. Prior to last year, Mohr had put together two straight seasons where Cypress lost just 11 games combined. In 2004-05 she led the underdog Chargers to her first State Championship. Mohr also took the college to seven consecutive post-season appearances between 2000 and 2006. In 2006, Mohr led Cypress to their first Orange Empire Conference Championship since 1988. Throughout both her playing and coaching career, Mohr has been no stranger to basketball success. Her high school playing career laid the foundation for the future, leading La Reina High of Thousand Oaks to the 1983 Southern Section Class 1A title and earning both CIF-SS and National Catholic Player of the Year honors. She was inducted into the Ventura County Sports Hall of Fame on June 19, 2004. Mohr then played for legendary coach Joan Bonvicini at Long Beach State and helped lead the 49ers to a 33-3 record and a berth in the Women’s Final Four in 1987. After graduation, Mohr began her coaching career as an assistant at Long Beach State and Santa Clara before taking the head coaching job at Woodrow Wilson High in Long Beach, guiding the Lady Bruins to a pair of Moore league titles and a CIF runner-up finish. During the summers of 2006 and 2007, Mohr was given the unique opportunity to be an assistant coach for the WNBA’s Los Angeles Sparks. At the Sparks she had the opportunity to coach such names as Lisa Leslie and Chamique Holdsclaw. Her goals for the Lady Chargers’ program remain the same: to help her players achieve academic excellence, athletic excellence and personal fulfillment. “I want the women in our program to leave Cypress College with all the tools to be successful in today’s competitive world and with two years of great memories and dreams come true” Mohr received her Bachelor of Arts in Physical Education from Long Beach State in 1988, and her Masters of Arts in PE from LBSU in 1996.

Margaret Mohr
What I Did on my Summer Vacation
A
fter one great summer as an assistant with the LA Sparks and with the coaching change to Michael Cooper as the head coach, I was not sure if my summer dream job was going to continue. It did! The Sparks wanted me back for a second season and I wanted to be back! Even though we were going to be without Lisa Leslie due to her pregnancy, I was excited to work in the WNBA again. After going through one season – I was probably more sure of myself because I knew what to expect and I believed I had something to offer. I was also looking forward to working with one of my favorite Lakers, Michael Cooper. I knew Coach Cooper was a great player but I got to see first hand what a great person he is. He is passionate, knowledgeable, and kind. It was great to talk to him about many things: X’s and O’s, NBA legends, and Seinfeld! I am truly glad to have worked for him and with him. Again I was able to work alongside Michael Abraham, the other assistant and former assistant coach of mine at Long Beach State. As always, he made whatever we were doing – coaching games, practicing, and traveling, even more fun with his knowledge and humor. Without Lisa Leslie, we knew we would have a tough road but losing Chamique Holdsclaw to retirement five games in made the road even tougher. On top of that, point guard Temeka Johnson was coming back from knee surgery. As you may have guessed, we
struggled all season win-loss wise. One year 25-9 and the next 10-24. What is crazy is that I still loved it. I think what continually amazes me is the professionalism of the Sparks players. They continued to work hard, remain coachable, and be great role models. I know they were frustrated with our record but nobody pointed fingers. The players just kept giving their best. Probably the weirdest thing about pro basketball is that you are thrown together for Michael Cooper and Margaret Mohr five months – daily Oh by the way the LA Sparks got at practice, games, the first round draft pick… Candyce and on the road. You forge strong bonds and then someone gets traded or injured Parker… Lisa Leslie… hmmm.. or you look up and the season is over. It is like being on a five month journey and then everyone gets off and goes overseas or to other commitments. But what remains are great memories and lasting friendships. I have been truly blessed with the opportunity to coach with the LA Sparks and every year I bring back new ideas and knowledge to the Lady Chargers. I am not sure when the journey will end but I am enjoying the ride.

fter surprising many in 2005-06 by winning the Orange Empire Conference championship, the veteran 06-07 squad came into the season with a target on their back. Cypress was led by all-conference returning sophomores Brae Butler and Corianne Felix followed by six other returning sophomores and six promising freshmen. The Charger season was punctuated by several ups and downs. Cypress had a rough start going two-and-out in the Merced tournament which eventually led to a disappointing 0-4 start. They quickly bounced back with five straight wins including Cypress’s fourth straight Lady Charger Classic championship. The Chargers went into a sharp downturn from there losing four straight before waking up in time to win the De Anza consolation championship. Cypress had a 7-9 pre-season record before heading into Orange Empire Conference play, to defend their championship. The OEC proved itself as the highest ranked conference in the state as Cypress battled with top ranked teams like Orange Coast, Fullerton, Santa Ana, and Saddleback. The Chargers made their way through conference balancing wins with losses including a highlight overtime win at Irvine Valley. As the season wound down, Cypress was on the bubble in the playoff picture. Cypress sealed their fate in the last game of the season with a lackluster 73-59 loss at Saddleback marking the first time since 1999 that Cypress would be absent from post-season play. The 14-16 season record was also the first time Cypress had a losing record since 2001.

HISTORICAL SPOTLIGHT
SARA WORKS
Arguably the best player in the history of Cypress College women’s basketball, Works is the school’s all-time leader in points scored (1,395) and second in rebounding (578) despite having her junior college career ended prematurely by a knee injury. She also holds the school record for points in a single game man or woman - when she tallied 45 against American River in December of 1994. During her career, the Lady Chargers went 45-22 and advanced to the State quarterfinals in 1993-94.

Flashback The Great Eight Chargers Take the State Championship
Cypress took down Pasadena for their first State Championship. March 13th, 2005 San Diego, Calif. – The playoffs began with 36 teams vying for the top spot in the state, after the dust had settled, Cypress came out on top. The Chargers came in undermanned and undersized, but ended their season with a victory over Pasadena 69-65 to win the State Championship. The Chargers were underdogs throughout most of the playoffs technically only supposed to win their first game. Cypress relished the underdog spot and were unfazed as they took out one opponent at a time through pure heart. Cypress faced off with the 29-1, 1st seed Pasadena College Sunday afternoon. The Chargers came out energized starting the game with a 10-2 run. With a 38-26 lead at halftime, it looked like the Chargers were going to pull out a blowout upset. When the second half began,
Pasadena came out with something to prove going on an 18-2 run to take the lead from Cypress. Just when most would concede that their dream season was over, Cypress charged back to take the lead for good and win by 4. The sophomores came up big for the Championship. Despite struggling through the first two games of the tournament with a broken toe, Rosalyn Omoruyi stepped up when it counted the most to be the leading scorer and rebounder of the game with 23 points and 14 rebounds. All State Tournament selection Mia Seagraves contributed some big baskets with 17 points while the Tournament MVP selection Brittany Imaku contributed 8 assists to go along with her 8 points. Long distance shooter Ruta Autele hit 2 three-pointers from the field and Paula Reed clogged up the middle on defense and grabbed 6 defensive rebounds. Reserve guard Niann Hill produced a key bucket in her limited minutes. The freshmen were not to be outdone as they showed what to look out for next year. Allstate forward Ana Fakatou put up 10 points and 8 rebounds while three-sport athlete Brianna James grabbed 5 rebounds. Head coach Margaret Mohr and her Great Eight Chargers end their season with the team’s first State Championship and a record of 28-5.
