Pat Summitt Petition

Recommended Posts

https://www.change.org/petitions/ncaa-name-the-women-s-college-basketball-championship-trophy-after-my-hero-pat-summitt#share

 

This is a petition to rename the NCAA Womens Basketball National Championship Trophy after Pat Summitt.

 

I know most here are probably all "lolwomensbaksetball" but Pat Summitt quite literally gave everything to Women's College Basketball and the University of Tennessee, as she singlehandedly made womens basketball a recognizable sport, and accomplished so much in her career, which includes:

 

In 2009, she was named to Sporting News' list of the 50 greatest coaches of all time (MLB, NBA, NFL, NHL, college basketball, and college football). She was listed as the 11th greatest of all time.

Most number 1 seeds in NCAA Division I postseason play (20)

Most wins as an NCAA/AIAW Division I basketball head coach (1,098; in second place is Mike Krzyzewski with 927 wins)

Most wins in NCAA postseason play (109)

Most NCAA Final Four appearances (18, six more than John Wooden, who holds the men's records)

16-time SEC Champions

16-time SEC Tournament Champions

8-time SEC Coach of the Year

7-time NCAA Coach of the Year

8-time NCAA Champions

 

I'm not sure if this petition will mean much, but it already has 22,061 as of me posting this, so maybe it'll get noticed.
