Margaret Wade entry (Lily Margaret Wade; born 30 Dec. 1912 in McCool, Miss., died 16 Feb. 1995; inducted into the Basketball Hall of Fame in 1985; In a cool and deliberate manner, Margaret Wade methodically assembled a dynasty at Delta State that remains unrivaled in women's basketball. Wade, who played at Delta State for three years, saw the program eliminated by an administration that deemed the sport too strenuous for girls. An outstanding coach at Cleveland High School in Mississippi for 19 seasons with a 453-89 record, when Delta State resurrected women's basketball in 1973, Wade, at age 60, became their coach. During the next three seasons, Wade produced an unprecedented three AIAW championships and a 93-4 record that included a 51-game winning streak) - https://www.hoophall.com/hall-of-famers/margaret-wade/
