Sad, sad story
Maggie Dixon, a 28-year-old Southern Californian who coached the Army women's basketball team to its first NCAA tournament appearance this season, died Thursday afternoon, a day after collapsing and being hospitalized, a source close to the family confirmed.

Holy crap. So sorry to hear that. Real shame, and with no warning. Like Hank Gathers. Sad.

Puts life in perspective. I thought all I had to worry about today was when I was gonna get the oil changed.

Best wishes to the Dixon family.

I'm a student at Pitt so I followed her success this season with much interest. It is such a tragedy what happened....
