John Robert Wooden (October 14, 1910 – June 4, 2010[1]) was an American basketball coach. He was a member of the Basketball Hall of Fame as both a player (inducted in 1961) and as a coach (inducted in 1973). He was the first person ever enshrined in both categories. Only Lenny Wilkens and Bill Sharmanhave since been so honored.[2] His ten NCAA national championships in a 12-year period while at UCLAare unmatched by any other college basketball coach.[3][4]
