In college, her world shifted when she discovered a passion for coaching that would lead her to become a Naismith Hall of Fame coach of women''s basketball at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. In this book, Coach Hatchell''s life story unfolds against the backdrop of Title IX and women''s struggle for equal opportunities in athletics. She celebrates triumphs (such as winning the 1994 NCAA Division I Women''s Basketball Tournament) and weathers sadness and failure (such as the loss of her parents, surviving cancer, and being forced to resign from her dream job in 2019).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAcknowledgments\tvii\u003cbr\u003ePreface\t1\u003cbr\u003e 1. Becoming Sylvia\t5\u003cbr\u003e 2. Honing Her Skills\t19\u003cbr\u003e 3. Becoming a Coach\t33\u003cbr\u003e 4. Living Her Dream\t54\u003cbr\u003e 5. The Dream Deferred\t80\u003cbr\u003e 6. Changing Her Game\t93\u003cbr\u003e 7. Duke!
