Coach Munday and her Coaching Career

Wouldn’t a coach that played for many years at a high level be amazing? When she was in high school, Coach Munday played basketball for Farragut High School. She played all four years of high school and started all four of those years (1999-2003). Her sophomore year was the first year she was named captain of her team. She held that title until she graduated her senior year. She has won honors like “All District,” “All Region,” and “All East Tennessee.” On top of all that, she was the KIL player of the year her senior year (2003). She left her high school leaving a major mark by being the All Time Leading Rebounder and All Time Leading Scorer. Her senior year of high school she signed to Samford University located in Birmingham, Alabama. Samford University is a Division 1 school when it comes to their girls basketball team. Coach Munday was the Ohio Valley Conference freshman of the year in the 2003-2004 season. She had multiple All Conference Team honors and was the NCAA Strength and Conditioning All-American. She left her college, the All Time Leading Scorer, and the All Time Leading Rebounder. All this gives her great credibility when she tries to find a coaching position. She decided to go back to Farragut High to coach. She said, “Being able to coach there is like being at home.” All of her players respect her because of what she has accomplished. She said playing basketball is more of getting to know yourself as a player and coaching is helping the players discover themselves and leading them in the right direction.
