TIM PEELER: Kay Yow's World of Silver Linings

December 30, 2007 on 8:20 pm | In Athletics |

Few people in the world of college athletics have been surrounded by darker clouds than NC State women's basketball coach Kay Yow over the last three years.

It's a lesson Yow learned from her mother, Lib, who never stopped looking for a bright tomorrow, even as she ultimately lost her battle in the spring of 1993, not long after Yow's friend and fellow NC State basketball coach Jim Valvano also died of the disease in the same hospital.
