Not only was summit a great coach, she benefited immensely from women's basketball being a sport few people cared about for most of her career. La Tech had two different national championship coaches that kept La Tech a national power for the better part of three decades and nobody cared enough to hire either coach away. You'd have sweet 16 games that were the equivalent of a 1/16 matchup in the men's game because there was such a huge drop off in talent after a handful of programs. That's just not the case now.
