UCLA revives its glory: The forgotten legacy of the 1978 Women’s Final Four

UCLA coach Cori Close found herself clarifying a misunderstanding during her first press conference before the Final Four. Despite her team making history by reaching the NCAA Final Four for the first time, Close emphasized that this was not the first time UCLA had reached such a significant stage in women's basketball. "Actually, that's not correct," Close remarked about the misconception that UCLA had never made it to a women's Final Four. "In 1978, AIAW, they won the national championship."
