Legendary North Carolina State University women's basketball coach Kay Yow died Saturday of breast cancer. According to an obituary disseminated by the Associated Press and published in The Washington Post, it was a battle that began in 1987, but it proved the coach to be as fierce a competitor off of the court as she was while on the court.
Regarding her cancer and coaching, she said: "If you start to dwell on the wrong things, it'll take you down fast. Every morning, I wake up, and the first thing I think of is I'm thankful. I'm thankful for another day."
Winning advice, to be sure, for all of life's challenges!
