Name: Stacy Frese
School: Iowa State
Year: Senior
Position: Guard
Season stats: 14.1 ppg, 41.7 FG percentage, 44.6 3-point FG percentage, 5.0 apg.
Honors: 1998-99 AP All-American honorable mention pick; holds the NCAA record single-game 3-point percentage (8-for-8 vs. Nebraska on Jan. 28, 1999).

But if you think that win from almost exactly a year ago is the height of Frese's career, think again.

When asked to recount her most memorable moment on the court, the senior guard picked a moment from high school.

"My senior year in high school we won the state championship on a last-second shot by one point," Frese responded. "It was the best feeling in the world to charge the court in triumph."

Frese shared the moment with us while completing a survey for ESPN.com. More than 20 players were asked to participate, and the Tournament Dish will continue to roll out the Bio Rhythms -- a fun and humorous look at the athlete by the athlete -- throughout the women's NCAA Tournament.

How did you get started playing basketball? I started playing basketball in third grade for a local AAU team and on boys' YMCA teams because at the time they did not have girl's teams. I also had four older sisters and brothers who played. Being the youngest, I of course wanted to do everything they did!

What is your best memory or moment on the basketball court? My senior year in high school we won the state championship on a last-second shot by one point. It was the best feeling in the world to charge the court in triumph.

Do you have any pregame rituals? I have many. I do the same thing before every game. I always eat a bowl of Raisin Bran. I war four ponytail holders in my hair. I listen to Rocky music. Megan Taylor and I put on Flex-All 454 before every game and we go out and do the same shooting routine before every game.

Who is the best player you've ever faced? I would say Georgia's Kelly Miller because she competed harder and with more heart and determination than anyone else.

Which player -- man or woman -- would you most like to take one-on-one? Jennifer Azzi, because she has always been the player that I most look up to.

Person you'd most like to meet? Jennifer Azzi, just to see what type of personality she really has.

Tell us something we don't know about you: I am very shy off the court.

Finish the following sentences:
