Select Company for WBB and MBB

[PJCLaw]

In the 85-year history of NCAA MBB and 42-year history of WBB, there have been ONLY FIVE schools that have won NC in both the men's and women's tournaments. They are:

UNC- 6 M/1W (7 total);

Stanford- 1M/3W (4 total);

Maryland- 1M/1W (2 total);

Baylor- 1M/3W (4 total); AND

UCONN- 6M/11W (17 total)

The amazing thing is, UCONN by itself has the same amount of NC as the other four schools COMBINED!!! (17). WOW!!! If this stat doesn't solidify UCONN as the basketball capital, then I don't know what else will. I cannot foresee this record getting broken anytime soon, because most schools that have a really good basketball team in one gender, typically doesn't have the same level of success in the other (maybe 15-20 schools have both teams in the tournament consistently, if not every year. Boy, are we spoiled!!

Storrs should be called "Bannerville".

UConn also has 2 dual championships (2004, 2014) and the most combined Final Four appearances.

We have been indeed blessed with success from our basketball programs. One of the biggest factors is that the prinary coaches that have made it happen: Calhoun, Hurley, Geno,and CD, have stayed to sustain the success when they had other opportunities waved in front of them that they could have taken.

The really amazing thing is that this was all accomplished in the last 30 years. If you were hanging around Storrs before 1990, this level of success was unimaginable.
