Shortly after the season ended, Ms. Summitt retired as head coach. “There may be coaches that win more than Pat, but there will never be another Pat Summitt,” Baylor Coach Kim Mulkey said. Ms. Summitt coached through the 2011-12 season, though her three assistant coaches assumed most of her duties during practices and games. “I was the only girl,” Ms. Summitt once said. As the number of championships climbed, so did Ms. Summitt’s salary, eventually reaching $1.25 million a year.
