How many schools have had men's and women's basketball champions in the same year? Here's the answer
It has happened ... twice!
It’s the possibility in 2024 with not one but TWO teams: If either UConn or NC State win on both the women’s and men’s side of their respective NCAA tournaments, we’ll have basketball champions at the same school in the same year.
There have been a bunch of examples of that happening with Final Four teams, but as for dual champions in the same year? It’s only happened twice … to the same university.
That would be UConn, where the women and men both won national championships in 2004 and 2014 March Madness.
There you have it! We’ll see if that happens again in 2024 … and if it happens to UConn 10 years apart again, that’s pretty wild.
