Stanford's Tara VanDerveer Ties Duke Icon Mike Krzyzewski's NCAA All-Time Wins Record

Stanford women's head coach Tara VanDerveer has tied Mike Krzyzewski for the most wins in NCAA history.

VanDerveer earned her 1,202nd victory on Friday night in the Cardinal's 88-63 win over Oregon.

Speaking to the Pac-12 Network after her historic victory, VanDerveer gave praise to the players she's coached over the years for making this moment possible.

Krzyzewski has been in sole possession of the all-time NCAA wins record for men's or women's coaches since March 18, 2018, when he passed legendary Tennessee women's coach Pat Summit's mark of 1,098.

Coach K became the all-time winningest coach in college basketball history 11 months later when he surpassed Harry Statham with 1,123 wins. A portion of Statham's wins came as an NAIA head coach.

VanDerveer is in her 37th season at Stanford. She was hired by the program in 1985 and transformed the Cardinal into a national powerhouse. They have made the NCAA tournament in 35 consecutive seasons, the second-longest active streak in the nation behind the Tennessee Lady Vols (41).

Stanford has won three national titles and 13 trips to the Final Four under VanDerveer. She began her head-coaching career at Idaho in 1978 and remained there for two seasons before going to Ohio State for five years.

A five-time National Coach of the Year winner, VanDerveer was inducted into the Women's Basketball Hall of Fame in 2002 and Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 2011.

VanDerveer will look to surpass Krzyzewski on the all-time wins list on Sunday when the Cardinal host Oregon State at 5 p.m. ET.
