    Damn. She fights against cancer for 22 years, and then it gets her anyway. That's the depressing part.

    Wonder if she knew something well ahead and decided to get through as much of the season as her body would allow? Didn't she just take a leave less than two weeks ago or so? She must have really gone through a lot to be there fir the games she coached.

    RIP, obviously

    Lousy news to wake up to on a Saturday.

    She was a beacon in the worlds of coaching and basketball.

    RIP, Kay.

    A true pioneer in the women's game and an inspiration to anyone who has dealt with or had a family member with cancer. The world's a little worse off with Kay Yow gone. Very sad morning.

    She did win an extra 22 years--that counts for a lot.
