Winning a national championship is a big thing at any level in college. The double appears to be just as rare at all levels, so I am not sure that the distinction of level matters that much.
Also, does anybody know if this first includes the old AIAW era? Some of the problem with women's records is that the NCAA didn't sponsor a women's basketball program until the 1970s, so you couldn't have an NCAA double. I hope that at some point they include the AIAW champs in the list of recognized NCAA champs, but that is asking a lot of the NCAA.
Oh yeah, and congrats to U-Conn and Taurasi, although I was pulling for Tennessee just to make the rivalry more interesting. U-Conn is becoming the UCLA of women's ball.
