}} Billie J. Moore (born May 5, 1943〔 in Westmoreland, Kansas) is an American basketball coach. She was the first coach in women's basketball history to lead teams from two different schools to national championships. She coached California State-Fullerton team from 1969 to 1977 (she won the AIAW national title in 1970 in her first year with the team) and UCLA team from 1977 to 1993 (winning the AIAW national title in 1978). Her overall college coaching record is 436-196. Despite the fact that her father had been a coach of both boys and girls basketball in Westmoreland, the family moved to Topeka, where Moore didn't play basketball for her high school because the school was too small to sponsor any athletic teams. However, she was invited to play for an industrial team sponsored by Ohse Meats Company.〔Powell p 336〕 Moore started her coaching experience as an assistant at Southern Illinois University where she pursued her Master's degree. In addition to basketball, she played softball for the Raybestos Brakettes, with Lou Albrecht,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=BRAKETTES ALL-TIME ROSTER )〕 who was the women's basketball coach at Cal State Fullerton. Albrecht left that position and recommended Moore for an interview. Moore was hired as women's basketball coach and athletic director.〔Powell p 337〕 In her first year as coach, her team would go on to win the national championship.〔Porter p 337〕 Moore coached teams would make it to the Final Four in 1970, 1972, 1975, 1978, and 1979.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Hall of Famers )〕 While the USA had competed in International events such as Jones Cup, World University Games, Pan American Games and World Championships, the Olympics focuses attention like no other event.〔Grundy p 167〕 Team member Juliene Simpson would explain, "Up until then, many people didn't know we had national teams playing in international competition. After the Olympics, that changed quite a bit."〔Grundy p 169〕 In 1976, the Olympics decided to add women's basketball to the list of sports. Billie Moore, who had been the assistant coach of the 1975 USA Women's Pan American Team which won the gold medal in Mexico,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=SEVENTH PAN AMERICAN GAMES -- 1975 )〕 was selected to be the first head coach of the first USA team. Moore coached the US Olympic women's basketball team to a silver medal in Montreal Olympics. After her Olympic coaching experience, Moore was hired at UCLA to coach the basketball team. In her first year, the team finished 27–3 and won the AIAW Women's Basketball Tournament.〔 UCLA beat Maryland 90–74 in front of over 9,000 fans—at that time, the largest crowd ever to see a women's championship game. Moore was enshrined in the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 1999 and in the Women's Basketball Hall of Fame in the same year.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Hall of Famers )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=WBHOF Inductees )〕 Moore received the Naismith's Women's Outstanding Contribution Award in 2002.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Billie Moore To Receive 2002 Naismith Women's Outstanding Contribution to Basketball Award ) 〕 Moore is the author of ''Basketball, theory and practice''.〔Moore〕 ==Publications== * 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Billie Moore」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
