WACO, TEXAS (Oct. 18, 2019) – Our Lady of the Lake University (OLLU) is the top vote-getter in the 2019-2020 Red River Athletic Conference (RRAC) Women's Basketball Preseason Poll. The Saints received seven of nine first-place votes and will be led by 2019 RRAC Women's Basketball Tournament MVP Lena Wilson (SR/Converse, Texas) along with another all-conference standout, Kasey Saldana (SR/San Antonio, Texas), who joined the Saints 1,000 Point Club last season. Both were NAIA All-America Honorable Mention selectees last season.
OLLU surpassed LSU Alexandria (LSUA) and LSU Shreveport (LSUS), which were voted second and third and received one first-place nod each. The Saints landed on top as long-time assistant and new University of Texas Hall of Honor inductee Stacy Stephens takes over as the head coach. Christopher Minner had been the head coach for the previous seven years.
