Pat Summitt (born Patricia Sue Head on June 14, 1952 in Clarksville, Tennessee) is arguably the most successful Division I college basketball coach, men’s or women’s, of all time. She is the coach of the Tennessee Lady Vols. She currently finished her 32nd year of coaching, all with the Lady Vols. Her career coaching record with the Lady Vols is 913-177.

As a player at the University of Tennessee-Martin, Summitt was an All American and co-captain of the 1976 Olympic basketball team.

Currently she has written two books (with the help of Sally Jenkins), Reach for the Summitt (a motivation book) and Raise the Roof (about the Lady Vols’ undefeated season in which they won the 1998 NCAA championship).
