The NCAA acknowledged Thursday it provided the women's programs with less access weight rooms and equipment than it had the men's teams at their respective March Madness tournaments.
In response to public complaints from the performance coaches from several women's teams and WNBA players about the unequal accommodations, a NCAA rep told The Washington Post's Molly Hensley-Clancy that it didn't think there would be enough space for full weight rooms because the convention center hosting the women's tournament is smaller.
"We acknowledge that some of the amenities teams would typically have access to have not been as available inside the controlled environment," NCAA VP Lynn Holzman told the Post in a statement.
