The Legendarium Podcast: Penny Toler, Joan Bonvicini, LaTaunya Pollard and more talk Long Beach State's impact on the modern game

Olympians, Hall-of-Famers and some of the greatest college basketball players of the 1980's drop by No Cap Space to educate basketball fans on Long Beach State and their contributions to women's hoops

Welcome to another edition of The Legendarium Podcast. As part of our mission statement to bring the history of the game to you in a variety of ways, we at No Cap Space don’t hang our hat on just written profiles. As part of our Legendarium roll-out, every profile will have a print feature released on Wednesdays, a podcast on Thursday and a video essay on our Youtube page on Fridays. The podcasts, in particular, are designed to give you a chance to hear the uncut sound of interviews done with hall-of-famers, star players and those that deserve their flowers all these years later.

This episode moves from the northeast to the west coast of the United States.. Long Beach State was a team ahead of their time, incorporating pace, transition and shot quantity to overwhelm their opponents. Throughout the 1980’s they were considered the best offensive team the game had ever seen before things changed in the 1990’s and LBSU never reclaimed the form of their glory years.

In this podcast, you’ll hear from Hall-of-Famer LaTaunya Pollard, Olympian Cindy Brown, former WNBA star and L.A. Sparks GM Penny Toler, pioneering coach Joan Bonvicini and Long Beach legend Roz Boger . We hope you enjoy learning about life in a post Title IX world and how The Beach laid the groundwork for the game we see today.
