4. Pat Summitt
In 1975, Summitt, 22, notched her first victory as head coach of the Tennessee Lady Vols. Thirty-one seasons later, she's got more wins than any other active college coach. Along the way, she's led Tennessee to six national titles, and was named the Naismith Coach of the Century in 2000. Her most impressive accomplishment, however, is that she's been the point woman in putting women's college basketball on the big-time sports map. |
