Lindsay Gottlieb became the ninth University of California women's basketball coach on April 25, 2011. In just her second season in Berkeley, Gottlieb led the 2012?13 Golden Bears to the first Final Four in school history, their first Pac-12 Conference championship, and the most wins ever by a Cal women's basketball team. Gottlieb was named Pac-12 Coach of the Year by the media, and was one of the four finalists for the Naismith National Coach of the Year. In her first season at Cal, Gottlieb's Bears had a 25-10 record, making her the first women's basketball coach to win 20 games in her first season at California. That year, Gottlieb led the Bears to the second round of the NCAA Women's Basketball Tournament. Gottlieb spent the previous three years as the head coach at UCSB where she led the team to two regular-season Big West championships in 2009 and 2011, as well as the Big West Tournament championship in 2009. She earned her 100th career victory on February 3, 2013. In addition to their outstanding success on the court, Gottlieb's 2012?13 California team became nationally known as a team that had fun, while also keeping focus. [More at Wikipedia]
