Almost two years ago we pointed to a story about Kay Yow, the Hall of Fame women’s basketball coach at North Carolina State, who continued to coach as she received treatment for Stage 4 breast cancer.

Yow died today in Cary, N.C. She was 66. Read The New York Times obituary of this truly amazing woman and one of the greatest coaches in women's basketball history.
