Not Bad

Not bad for a girl, eh? :-)

But seriously, congratulations to Pat Summit! I think her best record is the number of graduates she gets from her program. That's the one to be most proud of.

100 tourney wins is the equivalent of making 25 consecutive Final Four appearances. That's an insane number of wins.
