Philadelphia Rage
The Philadelphia Rage, were one of the eight original franchises of the American Basketball League (ABL), a women's professional basketball league. The franchise existed for just two-and-a-half seasons—1996-97 in Richmond, Virginia, 1997–98 and late 1998 in Philadelphia—the team produced many memorable moments for fans of women's basketball its highest level.
The Rage were led by the 1996 US Olympic team point guard, Dawn Staley, and by the less heralded but equally energetic play of Adrienne Goodson, who shot like a guard and rebounded like a power forward. With power forward Taj McWilliams, the Rage had three players out of the ten named to the 1997 All-ABL First and Second teams—the most of any team. The Rage scored a PR coup by signing the great heptathlete and long jumper Jackie Joyner-Kersee, probably the best-known player on any team, but the unofficial World's Greatest Female Athlete was more effective as a fan draw than she was on the court. Their initial draft choice was Lisa Leslie, but she opted to sign with the WNBA instead.
==Richmond Rage Team Record==
Even without Leslie, the Rage had a strong first season. Although their win-loss record was 21-19 a full 10 games behind the 31-9 Columbus Quest, their record was good enough for second place in the Eastern Conference, and that was good enough to put them in the four-team playoffs. Matched in a best-of-three set against the top team in the Western Conference, the Colorado Xplosion, the Rage won two straight to advance to the finals against Columbus. In the best-of-five finals, the Rage jumped out to a 2-0 series lead, only to lose the last three games.
