As a result, while amazing events and opportunites allow women to thrive on campus, many females are too focused on the efforts of their own group to utilize the opportunities offered by other organizations.

(The actual measure is sitting height, which allows for some variation; the team's tallest player is 6 ft. 9 in.--smaller than most college big men.) The school must also persuade athletes to commit five years of postgraduate life to the military--not exactly a lure to players with dreams of a pro career.
