Women’s hoops WWE belts helping shape identity in historic start

The Cougars have been building a new identity early in this season ahead of their Big 12 conference schedule. Sitting at a 5-1 record, the best start in UH women’s hoops since 2010, Houston has finally built a winning culture.

“Every single game matters equally,” said UH women’s basketball head coach Ronald Hughey. “The culture and camaraderie has been really good. We had a tough offseason. Watching this group fight together and get through was great for our group.”

In addition to their newfound success, the Cougars have also made new individual goals that include WWE-style belts along with other competitive individual awards to build chemistry and add a little extra motivation.
