Coming off a road win at Montana, Gonzaga will travel to Las Vegas to play in the second annual Play 4 Kay Shootout. The event has created in honor of Kay Yow, one of the best coaches in women’s basketball history. She coached NC State from 1975-2009 and amassed over 700 wins while making the Wolf Pack a great basketball program in the process.
Among her many accomplishments on the basketball, she’s most famous for her contributions and awareness raised for breast cancer research. A survivor herself, after getting diagnosed in 1987, the courage she displayed became the ultimate role model for women and men alike.
