It's 1979, and Ann Meyers is coming off a record breaking close to her college career. Meyers was the first player (male or female) to be a four-time All-American, the first to record a quadruple-double in college (20 points, 14 rebs, 10 assists and 10 steals), and was the first pick in the WBL. Then, the Indiana Pacers of the NBA came calling. What happened next was history in the making.
