On Pat Summitt

Excellent article by Sally Jenkins of The Washington Post on Pat Summitt, who was diagnosed with early onset dementia.

“If you go back to her speeches, and her discussions with players through the years, you see several things,” Barnett says. “One is absolute dedication. Two is an unwillingness ever to give up. And three is an absolute commitment to honesty. And in this challenge that she’s facing, she is displaying the exact traits that she’s always taught. . . .Pat is going to run this race to the very end.”

Obviously we all wish her the best of luck and many prayers as she fights this. May she win this battle as she has won so many others during her incredible coaching career.
