1993 through 1997
was a stretch of incredible, sustained success for Cascades women’s basketball.
The Cascades posted an amazing 65-3 record in BCCAA regular-season play over the four-year period, and they rolled to four straight conference championships. A CCAA national championship proved elusive, but the program brought home national medals each year, winning silver in 1994, 1995 and 1996, and bronze in 1997.
The Cascades' star-studded rosters under head coach Sandy Chambers included seven players who earned recognition as BCCAA all-stars, CCAA All-Canadians, and/or CCAA championship all-stars: Danielle Moe, Tricia Grant, Sue Parke, Denise Rehman, Martha Craig, Brandee Fort and Amber Mytting.
This dynasty established a tradition of women's basketball excellence at UFV which has endured over the ensuing decades.
