UCLA, short for University of California, Los Angeles, has a long and storied history in college basketball, with a record 11 championships won over the course of the program’s existence. However, the last time the Bruins won the March Madness Tournament was in 1995.
According to legendary UCLA coach John Wooden, “Winning takes talent, to repeat takes character.” This quote highlights the difficulty of winning back-to-back championships, something that Wooden’s UCLA teams accomplished a record-setting seven times in a row from 1967 to 1973.
