NOTE FROM THE SPORTS DESK:With UCLA closing in
on its 100th NCAA title, the sports section is pulling articles
from the Daily Bruin archives that documented past Bruin NCAA
titles. The articles will run once a week on Wednesday under a
special flag making it clear that, for example, John Wooden
didn’t just win his latest title on Oct. 3, 2006. Our hope is
it that the articles open up a window into the proud history of
UCLA sports and give those who follow the Bruins a deeper
understanding of how the school and athletics have evolved as the
titles have added up and the tradition has grown.
