Former Women’s Basketball Head Coach and Associate Director of Athletics Pam Evans Smith ’82 had a profound impact upon the athletes she coached and the students she taught over an illustrious Wittenberg career that spanned more than two decades.

Her legacy will continue to inspire young people at Wittenberg thanks to the newly established Pam Evans Smith ’82 Memorial Scholarship, which honors the women’s basketball coach with the most wins and highest winning percentage in North Coast Athletic Conference (NCAC) history.

Smith compiled a 401-170 record in 21 years at the helm of her alma mater’s program. With those 401 wins, Smith became just the 21st NCAA Division III women’s basketball coach to win 400 career games.

She also guided the Tigers to eight NCAA Division III Tournament appearances, twelve 20-win seasons and 11 NCAC regular season championships.
