Frosted Flakes: 1000 Wins, CoLOLorado, and Iceland’s Basketball Players

Yes, there was controversy.

But, win, lose or draw, you have to respect a coach that can earn 1000 wins in any sport. (No other Husker coach has reached that milestone.)

Nebraska softball coach Rhonda Revelle earned her 1000th win this past weekend vs UTEP. Revelle is also only one of 78 coaches (and I believe one of 13 active coaches) to be inducted into the National Fastpitch Coaches Hall of Fame. (Source)
