4. The Coaches With the Mostest

We all know about the coaches with the more popular sports, but we also want to give some love to the coaches who are not in the spotlight as others may be.

UCLA Women’s Soccer Head Coach Amanda Cromwell continues to stock this team with talent in pursuit of her second national championship. In her first year in 2013, Cromwell lead the Bruins to their 1st national championship. We can’t wait for her to do it again.

Ms. Val is a fixture with the UCLA Gymnastics team. Not only is she one of the best coaches and leaders of young minds, but she’s also a diehard Bruin. Not only does she get up for her own squad, but she can be seen at other UCLA games cheering on the Bruins.

The Women’s Basketball team has one hell of a coach and her hard work is starting to pay off. Cori Close had one successful season in her first three years but since then, especially with the addition of Jordan Canada and several great recruiting classes, she is elevating the Bruins to new heights and hopefully that translates into success for the Bruins.
