Saturday night’s NCAA tournament opener between the Bruins and the first-time participant Hornets features coaches who have a lot of history together.
UCLA women’s basketball coach Cori Close and Sacramento State coach Mark Campbell have a bond that’s been built through years of basketball and familial ties. So when Campbell called in the middle of a game plan meeting on Wednesday, Close knew exactly what to say:Saturday’s 8:30 p.m. NCAA tournament first-round game will be the sixth meeting between the two programs, but the history between the head coaches runs deep.
“Ever since I’ve been in the women’s game, Cori has been a mentor and a great friend and just an awesome person,” Campbell said. The Bruins also have a healthy starting lineup and bench this season, which is perhaps the biggest difference from last season. “I’m just so grateful to be out there,” she said. “I didn’t know I would feel this way two years ago about basketball. But now that I’m able to play, I’m just glad for every opportunity that we get.”
