Pat Summitt: The Coach Who Refused to Lose - Our American Stories

On this episode of Our American Stories, Pat Summitt built a dynasty at the University of Tennessee one season at a time. Her players feared her stare as much as they trusted her guidance, and together they set a new standard for excellence in college basketball. Eight national championships and more than a thousand wins made her the most successful coach in NCAA history, but her greatest achievement was how she elevated the women who played for her. Our own Greg Hengler revisits the story of a coach whose toughness was matched only by her loyalty. From the early days of the Lady Vols to her final game on the sidelines, Pat Summitt’s legacy lives on in every athlete who learned that greatness begins with discipline and ends with heart.
