DURHAM – Former Duke women's basketball National Player of the Year and current assistant coach with the Sacramento Kings Lindsey Harding has been tabbed the head coach of the South Sudan Women's Senior National Team.
"Words cannot express for this moment in time," said Harding. "I truly look forward to playing a role and shaping the lives of women in this country and use my platform to help inspire, serve and empower the youth of South Sudan."
The 2007 Duke graduate will take over the program in South Sudan, which is still in its infancy.
