- Ask Nancy: Q/A with Nancy Lieberman
- Q: Hi, Nancy. Why do you think the Great Adrienne Goodson of the Sting doesn't get a shot at the National Team? What gives? Yours Truly, -Ralph (Bayonne, N.J.)
- A: Speaking from an alumni perspective (Go ODU!), Goodie is a warrior. She won't get a lot of attention, but she just goes about the work and grinds it out. That is why I was really happy that she made the All-Star team in 2002. It just validated how good of a player she really is. People always underestimate her, but she is so mentally tough. She will never get a lot of exposure, but she is vital to the success of the WNBA. Source: http://aol.wnba.com/features/asknancy_040721.html
- JERSEY CITY, NJ - 05/06/2003…Adrienne is often compared to her cousin, Dennis “Lil Pie” Goodson. His alma mater, New Jersey City University (Jersey City State College) unveiled the newly created Dennis Goodson Memorial Basketball Award, at the Annual Athletic Awards Banquet in 2003. Dennis competed as a point guard with the school from 1983 to 1987 and was a starter on the school's first Final Four team in 1986. Sadly, he died on June 25, 2002 at the age of 36.
- Named in honor of the star point guard, the award is bestowed to either a male or female basketball player at NJCU. The recipient will best exemplify the attributes for which Goodson was known: team loyalty, dedication to the sport of basketball, competitive spirit on the court, knowledge of the fundamentals of basketball, and demonstration of leadership, and sportsmanship.
