Supercoach!

There's been so much tournament news lately that I've neglected to report some of Tara's recent achievements. Which is probably what she prefers. Nonetheless ...

The Pac-10 Tournament semifinal game against UCLA was Tara's 600th Stanford victory and her 752nd career victory. She is now #4 in career wins by active coaches — preceded only by Sylvia Hatchell (810), C Vivian Stringer (822) and Pat Summitt (1005).

Last week she was named the Pac-10 Coach of the Year for the tenth time.

Yesterday the WBCA named her the Region 8 Coach of the Year for the fifth time. Here is the official announcement.

Congratulations Tara! And thanks for all the joy you bring to your Cardinal fans.
