LOS ANGELES (AP) — Although UCLA's season already has been a spectacular story by multiple measures, the Bruins are determined to write the proper ending.
Lauren Betts and her teammates won a school-record 30 games and lost only twice while spending 13 weeks at No. 1. They're still smiling at the memory of the confetti-strewn celebration of their revenge victory over crosstown rival Southern California last week in Indianapolis to win their first Big Ten championship.
“That was really fun,” Betts said. “But we want to do it again.”
As the No. 1 overall seed in the NCAA Tournament, the Bruins have a golden opportunity to do something even bigger.
