Coach Phillips accomplished more in 9 years as the head coach at Kickapoo High School than most coaches who have the opportunity to coach 30 years.  Her teams compiled a 214-38 record for an unbelievable winning percentage of 84.9%.  Coach Phillips led the Lady Chiefs to State Titles in 2003 and 2005, finishing the 2003 season ranked #13 in the nation.  Her teams won 9 consecutive conference championships, never losing in the Ozark Conference in her career along with winning 5 district titles.  Coach Phillips served on the MBCA Board of Directors and was the President of the Association the past 2 years.  Coach Phillips will not only be remembered for her leadership on the court, but for her courageous battle with cancer.  Her efforts have led to an amazing increase in cancer awareness throughout the state and an upswing in “Paint it Pink” games sponsored by the American Cancer Society throughout Missouri.
