The Lady Vols coach has been to the playoffs before. In her 18th season as a coach,Harper is one of two coaches in history to lead four different programs to the NCAA Tournament.

Winning in March requires more than just X and O.

The late Pat Summitt was a coach who had superstitions. Summitt always got her hair and nails done before a big game, and she was also superstitious about ice cream sundaes and lucky coins.

Is it a superstition thatHarper has a routine in March? Girl Scout cookies are in her room.

I don't know if they are out yet, but if they are, I will probably try to find some in Nashville. When someone brought us some to the tournament, I felt like I needed to have Girl Scout cookies every year. They are not in the players rooms. They are in my room. I will be the one eating all the cookies.

The Tennessee Lady Vols lost the regular-season finale but finished third in the SEC.

Her favorites include Tagalongs, Samoas and Thin Mints, but she will take any flavor at the end of the day.

The field for the NCAA tournament will be set next Sunday. The Lady Vols will face either Alabama or Georgia on Friday in the SEC Tournament. The SEC Network is at the arena.

Whether she gets her cookies or not, she loves everything about the playoffs, from late nights and early mornings to scrambling to get scouting reports for the next opponent.

Tennessee players have appreciated how thorough and articulate she is in preparing them, and they have 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 888-349-8884 In March, the preparation is only getting more thorough, andHarper said she was bringing all her scouting folders and practice plan with her.

I love the hustle and bustle of the tournament time, the competitiveness in figuring out what to do to get your team ready. I have always liked that, and I will probably do a lot of the same things I have done in the past.

During her first season at UT,Harper was unable to coach in the NCAA Tournament because of the COVID-19 Pandemic. The first postseason without strict testing and attendance protocols since 2020 is something she appreciates even more.

The last two years have made me appreciate the opportunity that we have, to go out and play a game that we love. We have to be excited about that.
