The 1978 AIAW Championship was the last time UCLA was in the Final Four. It was also the first time the women *had* a true Final Four, held on its own weekend, in a major venue, shown on television. On the legacy of that run from 1978: si.com/college-basketball/uc…
This Isn’t UCLA’s First Women’s Final Four

This Isn’t UCLA’s First Women’s Final Four

It may not be in the NCAA record books, but the 1978 AIAW championship is a big part of the Bruins’ storied program history.
