On the eve of the 2002 NCAA Women's Final Four championship game, 15 of the nation's top college seniors got a lesson on the basketball court from the USA Women's Basketball Team after playing in the Women's Basketball Coaches Association All-Star Challenge Saturday in San Antonio.

UNLV senior forward Linda Frohlich started for the WBCA College All-Stars alongside Louisiana Tech's Ayana Walker, Stanford's Lindsey Yamasaki, Baylor's Sheila Lambert and South Carolina's Shaunzinski Gortman. In front of 4,100 fans the collegians were defeated by Team USA, 100-59.

Frohlich, the school's all-time leading scorer and Lady Rebels' all-time leading rebounder, played 15 minutes and scored seven points and grabbed one rebound. Frohlich is the first UNLV player to be named a WBCA All-Star.
