Stanford University announced Tara VanDerveer, its Director of Women's Basketball and coach, will retire after a historic career. VanDerveer announced the move on Tuesday. She has been with Stanford for 38 seasons and became the winningest coach in NCAA history in January. She recorded 1,203 wins when Stanford beat Oregon State on Jan. 21. The win pushed her past former Duke and Army coach Mike Krzyzewski's record. Her record currently stands at 1,216 wins.
The university said it is in negotiations with Kate Paye to succeed VanDerveer. Paye once played under VanDerveer in the '90s, and she has been a part of her staff for nearly 20 years. 'Tara's name is synonymous with the sport and women's basketball would not be what it is today without her pioneering work,' said Stanford's Jaquish & Kenninger Director of Athletics Bernard Muir.
