In the 40th anniversary year of Title IX, ESPNW is counting down the 40 greatest female athletes of the last 40 years. USC women's basketball icon Cheryl Miller is No. 13.
Miller's resume speaks for itself: 1984 Olympic Gold medalist, 4-time All-American, 3-time Naismith College Player of the Year and 2-time NCAA champion.
However, former Women of Troy head coach Linda Sharp said that her personality set her apart from other athletes.
"One thing Cheryl had besides the skills and athleticism was showmanship," Sharp told ESPN.com. "She stepped on the court and just did her thing. She had character; she entertained. She's still that way."
