UCLA Wins NCAA Title as Wooden Bids Farewell
UCLA defeats Kentucky 92-85 to claim the 10th NCAA title in 12 years as John Wooden bids farewell after a storied coaching era. Rich Washington and Dave Meyers led UCLA with 28 and 24 points respectively, while Ralph Drollinger provided key minutes and Pete Trgovich sparked late in the first half. Kentucky’s Grevey scored 34 but missed two crucial free throws as UCLA controlled tempo and sealed the comeback with disciplined defense and clutch plays.
