Joan Bonvicini is one of 12 finalists for the Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame. It’s not a tough call. She should already be in. Bonvicini won 701 games at Long Beach State, Arizona and Seattle, and her 17-year run at McKale Center was more than the school could’ve expected. At 63, Bonvicini has retired from coaching and lives much of the year in Tucson while working as a Pac-12 Networks analyst.
