At Texas Tech University, the women's basketball team is known as the Lady Raiders. The pinnacle of their athletic tenure occurred in
March and April of 1993, when the Lady Raiders won the Southwest Conference Post Basketball Tournament and the NCAA Championship. The
1993 National Championship win by the Lady Raiders was the first for Texas Tech University, the team and its coach.
The team was headed by noted basketball coach Marsha Sharp, who completed her 20th year with the university in 2002. Among her
accomplishments was serving as head coach of the 1994 Olympic Festival West Team, which won a silver medal in St. Louis, and serving as
head coach of the qualifying teams for the inaugural USA Basketball World Championships for Young Women in Brazil in 2002. Sharp
resigned as the women’s basketball coach in 2006.

The collection contains news clippings, scorebooks, and memorabilia collected over the course of 20 plus years during the tenure of
Marsha Sharp. The bulk of the collection consists of scrapbooks that had been labeled, “Mail Outs and News Clippings.” These documented
the teams athletic, outreach and recruiting activities and were generally kept per basketball season.
Also donated were over 600 plus Lady Raider videos, mostly game footage. These have been rehoused separately and are detailed on
another inventory.
