Class act

The Rutgers womens basketball team held a news conference this morning, and all the young women were impressive indeed.

clipped from sports.espn.go.com PISCATAWAY, N.J. -- The Rutgers women's basketball team will meet with embattled radio host Don Imus, and their coach on Tuesday called his comments "racist and sexist remarks that are deplorable, despicable and unconscionable." "We would just like to express our great hurt," junior forward and team captain Essence Carson said in announcing the private meeting. Head coach C. Vivian Stringer said her players "are the best this nation has to offer, and we are so very fortunate to have them at Rutgers University. They are young ladies of class, distinction. They are articulate, they are gifted. They are God's representatives in every sense of the word." She said it's not about the players "as black or nappy-headed. It's about us as a people. When there is not equality for all, or when there has been denied equality for one, there has been denied equality for all."
