Reach for the Summit by Pat Summit

While finishing a Masters degree at The University of Tennessee Knoxville, I served as the Pep Band Director for the Tennessee Lady Vols Basketball team. During this time I had the opportunity to see Pat Head Summit work. As the coach with the most wins in NCAA basketball history (both men's and women's), Pat Summit embodies strength and perseverance. Reach for the Summit is a motivational book that details The Definite Dozen – Pat’s approach to being successful in basketball, and more importantly, in life. I chose this book because it was written by an incredible woman with an amazingly simple formula for repeated success.
