Basketball - 1993

Basketball’s Roz Goldenberg, who excelled at both the high school and collegiate levels as a player, made history in 1988 when she became the first woman to coach a boys high school varsity basketball team to a CIF championship.

Goldenberg began her basketball career at Poly High School in Sun Valley. She was a two-time captain of the squad and also team MVP. She went on to play four years at Cal State University Northridge, where she completed her degree in physical education.
