CINCINNATI - Registration is still open for the University of Cincinnati women's basketball golf outing on Sunday, Sept. 9.

Robertson is a Naismith Memorial Hall of Fame inductee and National Association of Basketball Coaches' Player of the Century played varsity basketball at UC from 1958 through 1960 and still ranks as the school's all-time leader in points (2,973), rebounds (1,338), field goals made (1,052) and free throws made (869). He was a three-year consensus All-American and three-time pick for National Player of the Year honors. Robertson helped UC to a 97-7 record and two NCAA Final Four appearances (1959 and 1960) during his college career.
Head coach Jamelle Elliott and her squad will also recognize Executive Associate Athletics Director and Senior Woman Administrator Robin Martin for her outstanding contributions to the women's basketball program.
