COACH BINAM NAMED TO SUMMIT LEAGUE HOF

Lady Bruins basketball coach Krista Binam has been named a charter member of the Hall of Fame of the Summit League from her stint as a standout basketball player at Oral Roberts University from 1996-2002. One of the most decorated women’s basketball players in the league's history, Krista Ragan-Binam, was the first to earn three Player of the Year honors. She began her career by winning both the Newcomer of the Year and Tournament MVP award as a freshman while leading Oral Roberts to its first NCAA Tournament appearance. As a sophomore, Ragan began her run of three consecutive league Player of the Year honors, while earning a second career Tournament MVP honor in 2001. A first team all-league performer each of her four seasons, Ragan ended her college career as the league’s all-time leading scorer and the first to surpass the 2,000-point plateau. She played in the WNBA before embarking on a high school coaching career, and is now coaching the Lady Bruins in Bartlesville. Congratulations to Coach Binam, and thank you for sharing your talents with our players!
