Happy Birthday to Coach Wooden who turns 98 today. Coach is well known for winning 10 NCAA Championships at UCLA. What many people don’t know about Coach was that he was also a 3-time All-American guard at Purdue University, and was named College Basketball Player of the Year in 1932 after helping to lead Purdue to the NCAA Championship.
