The importance of the women's basketball game is that they beat a record winning 100 consecutive games. Males basketball winnings are only 90 was. So the Huskies beat the mens record as well. According to this site http://wtop.com/ncaa-basketball/2017/02/century-mark-uconn-women-win-100th-straight-game/"Given UConn’s glitzier numbers linked to national championships, 11 titles and counting, it may seem ho-hum with no added significance. Geno Auriemma’s squad already owns the longest winning streak in Division I college basketball history. UConn beat its own record of 90 consecutive wins earlier this season with little fanfare. "

"The Equal Rights Amendment (ERA) was significant because it represented a major step (albeit a failed step) in the move towards women's rights." The importance of title nine is for the gender discrimination. http://www.ncaa.org/about/resources/inclusion/gender-equity/title-ix-important-facts"Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, 20 U.S.C. Sect. 1681 (20 United States Code section 1681) et seq. (Title IX), is a Federal statute that was created to prohibit sex discrimination in education programs that receive Federal financial assistance. Nearly every educational institution is a recipient of Federal funds and, thus, is required to comply with Title IX. The regulation implementing the Title IX statute is at 34 C.F.R."
