UCLA Basketball: The women are going dancing as they claim a 6-seed

David Bowie said it best, “Let’s Dance!” After a surprising conference performance, the UCLA basketball women’s team is putting on their dancing shoes as they have been invited to play in the 2019 NCAA Tournament.

The UCLA Bruins (20-12, 12-6) made a case for themselves in the last two months as they had several impressive Pac-12 wins which helped them boost their resume. This season they had defeated six ranked teams, went 7-2 on the road in conference, beat then-#2 Oregon on their home floor, and have won 11 of their last 14 games.

In their last contest, UCLA took top-ranked Oregon to overtime in the quarterfinals of the Pac-12 Tournament.
