1st Half Game Log - All-Time Women's Title Game Tennessee 1998 vs. La Tech 1982

The day before Selection Sunday, we wrap up our first all-time Women's great championship using the Value Add Basketball Game. Our first men's all-time 96 team tournament concluded with Bill Walton's UCLA defeating Michael Jordan's UNC, 66-58 (see men's game log here). 

On the women's side it is Pat Summitt's 1998 Tennessee team against the first ever NCAA Women's national champs Louisiana Tech from 1982. The game starts with a 20-20 tie with all 10 players on each team starting with 10 points. Here is the game log for the first half of the title game. The reserves play the first seven possessions (44 to 38 on the sheet) then the starters enter and play the rest of the game (37 to 1).
