The Lady Bears honored former Tennessee head coach Pat Summitt on Jan. 20 before their matchup with Kansas State at the Ferrell Center. It was a small way of showing appreciation toward this inspiring former basketball coach.
Summit died in 2016 after a hard-fought battle with Alzheimer’s Disease. She certainly made a mark in the NCAA collegiate sports world, but her memory has brought awareness of Alzheimer’s to a younger generation as well.
When Baylor played Kansas State on Saturday, both teams honored the legendary coach by wearing t-shirts in support.
