Bruce acknowledged one of the most difficult aspects of his decision was telling Dittburner. I talked with her last night. This is never easy. She didn't come out here for me to leave after one year. I know it's not fair.

Altman played for Bruce at Northern Colorado in the 1997-98 season. This was her first assistant coaching job. Altman had already announced her resignation, effective June 30, so she could join the Peace Corps. She will serve in the central Asian country of Uzbekistan, formerly part of the Soviet Union. But being around this athletic department, CSUB has a great athletic director in Rudy Carvajal.
