Stanford's Tara VanDerveer on Verge of Becoming Winningest Coach in College Basketball History

One Victory Away from Surpassing Mike Krzyzewski's Record, VanDerveer Could Make History This Weekend

Tara VanDerveer, Stanford's women's basketball coach, is on the verge of becoming the winningest coach in college basketball history, surpassing former Duke coach Mike Krzyzewski's record of 1,202 wins.
VanDerveer's potential record-breaking win could happen as soon as this weekend, with Stanford hosting games against Oregon and Oregon State.
VanDerveer, who has been with Stanford since 1985, has led the team to three NCAA titles and 15 trips to the Final Four.
Despite a recent loss to Colorado, VanDerveer remains one victory away from matching Krzyzewski's record.
VanDerveer's career has seen her coach at Idaho and Ohio State before Stanford, and she took a yearlong sabbatical to coach Team USA to a 60-0 record and an Olympic gold medal in 1996.
