Unrivaled by Jeff Goldberg
For twelve years the women's basketball rivalry between UConn and Tennessee was the most iconic matchup in women's sports. Now, eight years after the last game, Unrivaled reveals the on-court and behind-the-scenes story of this intensely personal rivalry between coaches, players, and the two most passionate fan bases women's sports has ever known.
"Highly recommended for basketball and collegiate sports fans as well as readers interested in learning about this important era in women's history"—Katie McGaha, Library Journal
“There were many memorable moments in the UConn–Tennessee rivalry. The author captures them all in exquisite detail, plus many more. This is a must-read for any women’s basketball fan, let alone those who follow the Huskies and Lady Vols.”—Mel Greenberg, Women’s Basketball Hall of Fame inductee (2007), former women’s basketball writer for the Philadelphia Inquirer, and creator of the weekly Associated Press women’s basketball poll
“Goldberg does a nice job with game-by-game reporting, peppering each with comments from key players like Rebecca Lobo, Diana Taurasi, Sue Bird, Tamika Catchings, and Chamique Holdsclaw. The book ends with a moving afterword from Auriemma’s daughter, Alysa, who pays tribute to Summitt.”—Bob D’Angelo, Tampa Tribune
