Tonight, one of the biggest women’s basketball games of the season will take place at Pauley Pavilion as the UCONN and UCLA Basketball women’s teams take to Nell and John Wooden Court.
The fact that UCLA is a part of this contest is no surprise. Head coach Cori Close has been the architect, contractor, engineer and landscaper that has made this Bruins squad the #3 team in the nation.
Close has been quietly putting together a team that has championship potential, on the conference and on the national level.
Racking up wins and getting deep into the tournament is great but one of the things the Bruins have to focus on is beating top talent.
