John Wooden, with 10 http://home.att.net/~rebels02/page10B_tournamnet.html Wooden concluded his 40th year as a head coach in 1975 with a record of 885 wins, 203 losses, and a winning percentage of .813 which is unequalled. In his 27 years at UCLA, his teams registered 620 wins against only 147 losses. Under Wooden, UCLA won an unprecedented 10 NCAA Championships in 12 years, including seven in a row. Included in that string is one of the most amazing win streaks in sports, 38 straight NCAA tournament victories. In addition, there is the all-time NCAA consecutive win-streak record of 88 in a row over four seasons: 15-0 at the close of 1970-71, 30-0 in both 1971-72 and 1972-73, and then 13 in succession in 1973-74 before the string was broken. 'The Wizard of Westwood' is the only coach to compile four undefeated seasons of 30-0 and his teams also captured 16 conference championships (one of the records Coach Wooden is most proud of), all at UCLA. www.woodenclassic.com/johnwooden.html
