In fact only 13 schools have held up the NCAA Division I women's trophy.
Only five schools have won multiple titles, and two programs - Tennessee, with eight, and Connecticut, with seven - have combined to win half of the titles.
But perhaps, just perhaps, with Notre Dame beating Connecticut, 73-63, and Texas A&M nipping Stanford, 63-62, the parity - at least relative parity - that people thought was coming to women's hoops 5 years ago finally might be here.
Back in 2006, when Maryland won the NCAA title a year after Baylor had won in 2005, it marked the first time since 1993, with Texas Tech, and 1994, with North Carolina, that the tournament went consecutive years without either Connecticut or Tennessee winning a title.
Those thoughts of women's basketball finally balancing out were quickly dismissed when Tennessee won back-to-back titles in 2007 and '08 and UConn followed suite in 2009 and '10.
In fact, with Connecticut posting consecutive undefeated seasons and putting together a record 90-game winning streak, the sport looked more than ever like "the Have" vs. a bunch of "Have Nots."
Even with Stanford stopping UConn's streak with a 71-59 victory on Dec. 30, the Huskies' appearance in the Final Four made coach Geno Auriemma's talk of his team's vulnerability look like gamesmanship.
Taking a 36-1 record into the semifinals means being "vulnerable" only by Connecticut standards.
And with Notre Dame knocking off Tennessee in the regional finals, thus preventing the first Tennessee/Connecticut Final Four matchup since 2002, the Huskies seemed bound to become the first program to win three consecutive titles twice.
Connecticut had beaten its Big East rival three times during the regular season.
But here it is, for just the second time, the National Championship Game won't involve at least one No. 1 seed.
The other time it happened was in 1994 when No. 3 North Carolina beat No. 4 Louisiana Tech.
