 PHILADELPHIA (AP) - Now that Pat Summitt has the record for career coaching victories, Tennessee has one less distraction as it chases a seventh national championship.
Though Summitt appreciated the recognition she earned for passing Dean Smith with her 880th career win, the Hall of Fame coach felt it overshadowed how well her Lady Vols were playing.
"It was talked about probably more than I ever had imagined," Summitt said Saturday. "To have that in the past is a good thing. I don't even want to take a chance of any distractions at this point."
