A look at archived footage from 1998 shows WRAL anchor Debra Morgan's reports on the NC State women's basketball team in Kansas City at the Final Four.
The NC State women's team is getting ready for a big game because for the first time in history, the team is in the final four and 23 year. Coach K is now looking for victory number 5, 53. Her players intend to give it to her. Deborah Morgan joins us now live from Kansas City team on us one day and counting. That's right, David, you know, NC State, this is first trip to the final four. But for Louisiana take the te the team, they playing tomorrow night, they've been here many times before. So we'll see how this whole experience issue plays out what the States trying to do right now is getting a good balance going of enjoying what's going on here as well as getting down to the serious business of playing some good basketball. The key word I've been hearing tonight is focus all dressed up for dinner. The wolf pack women posed for pictures in the lobby of their hotel. They're focusing on all the fun of the final four while trying to stay focused on their game. Yes, we're really excited. There's no words that can describe how we feel we're just going to go out and play hard. They should be here. We're just going to try to play the best basketball that we can play and we're going to be really focused tomorrow. We're just overwhelmed as we get them. Coach Ky shared a few of the many good luck wishes being sent their way to Ky and the pack, way to go Wolf Pack. Good luck. We're cheering you on. She says to say this team is excited is an understatement. That's what makes it exciting for me is that you share it with so many people and that's what really makes it a special moment. Senior chasity Melvin just found out she was even named one of the 10 all American players. I just dreamed about being a Kodak all American. I never really said it as a goal of mine and it's just a dream come true. This whole final four experience is a dream come true for the wolf pack who were never picked to be here. Now, Kansas City is decked out ready for the games, everything from banners and T shirts supporting the pack and as they headed to a salute dinner in their honor, their thoughts turn to their big game. This is destiny for our team and we feel like that we're here for a reason to win the whole thing. And I feel like this team can really do it. And coach said the team had a great practice today and it's probably because they're playing such good basketball that the team is able to enjoy themselves as much as they are. Tip off David tomorrow at seven o'clock, a lot of people watching this and we wish them the best. Thanks.
