Ann Meyers

Induction:
1988

The first woman athlete ever to receive a full scholarship at UCLA, Ann Meyers earned seven letters — four in basketball, two in volleyball and one in track and field — in her four years with the Bruins (1975-78). While at UCLA, she was a member of the U.S. Olympic basketball team that won a silver medal at the 1976 Games. Now a successful sportscaster, Ann carried the American flag and competed in the Pan American Games in Puerto Rico, competed in the Spartakiade in Moscow; played against the People's Republic of China and, in 1977, won a silver medal at the World University Games in Bulgaria. She also won a gold medal in the 1975 Pan American Games at Mexico City. She is the sister of Dave Meyers, a forward on John Wooden's last championship team in 1975.
