Cori Close, the visionary coach behind UCLA’s first NCAA-era national championship, is set to headline the 2026 USD Basketball Coaches Clinic on August 1st—joining legends like Jeff Van Gundy and Seth Davis. In just 15 seasons, she’s built UCLA into a powerhouse with 358 wins and 144 losses, capped by a historic 2024-25 campaign that earned her every major National Coach of the Year award, led the Bruins to a 34-3 record and their first Final Four, and saw six players from that team drafted into the WNBA—including five in the first round. The clinic, held at USD’s Basketball Performance Center, aims to elevate Southern California’s basketball ecosystem, with Close emphasizing collaboration and service as core values. It’s a must-attend event for coaches seeking growth, leadership, and the future of the game.
