More than four years ago you committed here as the highest-ranked prospect to commit to UCLA since the ESPN HoopGurlz recruiting database was created in 2007 with the audacious (to me) belief that you could help elevate this program to their first NCAA Final Four and national championship Kiki Rice, No. 2 women's prospect in ESPN's class of 2022, commits to UCLA Nov 4, 2021 . "This was a really tough decision because of all the great options I had, but I felt like at UCLA I have the unique opportunity to play a key role in bringing a program that's knocking at the door to their first Final Four and national championship," Rice told ESPN. "They offered me the best opportunity to achieve my goals while being developed and challenged as both a player and a person."
You apparently reiterated that belief at the McDonald's AA game High school Kiki Rice says she's going to bring UCLA its first women's national basketball championship 2022, over UCONN, South Carolina, Stanford?
Well...YOU DID IT!
So THANK YOU. This skeptic did not believe NCAA Final Fours or a WBB National Championship Banner were possible. Having worked in Pauley as an ASUCLA employee during the 1978 AIAW Championship, figured I had seen the pinnacle of UCLA WBB. Glad you proved me wrong.
