The Women’s Basketball Coaches Association will have a special meeting with the Division I Women’s Basketball Oversight Committee on April 19 to discuss the inequities between this year’s men’s and women’s tournaments, in addition to the external review the NCAA ordered last month.
ESPN obtained a letter sent last week to NCAA Vice President of Women’s Basketball Lynn Holzman and oversight committee chair Lisa Campos requesting the special meeting.
In the letter, the WBCA made it clear it wants to not only discuss what happened in San Antonio, but “the systemic inequities that exist in the NCAA’s organizational structure, governance and administration of women’s and men’s basketball.”
