Hall of Fame finalist Mulkey reflects on career

By Ben Everett | Sports Writer

Baylor women’s basketball head coach Kim Mulkey is one of four women who are finalists for the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame Class of 2018.

Mulkey, who boasts 532 career wins as head coach of the Lady Bears, took a moment to reflect on her career after Baylor’s 88-51 win over Kansas on Saturday.

Mulkey won the NCAA Tournament title in 1982 as a player for Louisiana Tech, and again in 1988 as assistant coach. Mulkey said coming to Baylor was a curveball at her after Louisiana Tech did not renew her contract.
