It’s a typical Saturday morning, and the Lady Bears’ head coach Kellie Harper is watching game film with her young son Jackson resting on top of her.
“It’s almost like my personal life and my professional life is all one thing,” Kellie Harper said. “It’s a checklist, you just go right down. Laundry is right next to film. You just have to get things done during the season.”
Her husband, assistant coach Jon Harper, might be watching game film with her. Or folding laundry. Or on a brief recruiting trip. They share responsibility, Kellie said.
Kellie and Jon married in 1999 and have been coaching the Lady Bears for four years.
