NCAA Women's Division I Basketball Champions
The National Championship for women's college basketball was first held by the NCAA in 1982. Previous to the creation of an NCAA tournament, other women's college sports organizations such as the Association for Intercollegiate Athletics for Women (AIAW) organized championships. The AIAW was discontinued after the 1982 season, so there are subsequently two champions for that season.
