Kari Pickens is the head women's basketball coach at Ashland University in Ohio. In 2023, she led her team to a perfect 37-0 season and the 2023 NCAA Division II national title. She is the first woman to win a D-II women's basketball title as a player (2013), an assistant coach (2017) and a head coach. Following the season, Pickens was named Women's Basketball Coaches Association D-II Coach of the Year, becoming the first woman to earn both WBCA Coach of the Year and Player of the Year honors, and the first coach in any NCAA division to be both WBCA Coach of the Year and Assistant Coach of the Year.
Today we talk to Kari Pickens about shining the light of Jesus in coaching, the struggle in giving glory to God, the importance of prayer walks and the lessons in finishing the season undefeated with a national title.
