It will only take four wins this upcoming season but Tara VanDerveer is set to become the NCAA’s all-time leader in career coaching victories at some point in the 2020-21 season. That’s all it will take, just four wins.
It’s now just a matter of time and how many games does it take for her to eclipse the late, great Pat Summitt.
VanDerveer is entering the 2020-21 women’s college basketball season with 41 years in coaching, and 1,094 career victories as a head coach. She trails Summitt by just four wins as the latter went 1,098-208 over 38 seasons at the University of Tennessee.
